    Show me your EDC

    EDC or everyday carry. Or in kiwi terms, the shit you carry in your pocket most days.
    I don't carry much but I do normally have a torch (flashlight) and a folding knife plus a disposable pen.
    Zebralight SC63w and an unknown Gerber liner lock folder.

    There's some cool stuff out there these days.
    What's in your pockets?

    I lost my Spyderco Delica which was my EDC knife and after seeing a Paramilitary 2 for sale here I needed to get another Spyderco.
    I ordered one in Cruwear steel like this

    and as freight was the same for two knives I figured chucking a RAT in the box wasn't going to break the bank

    I also have a Spyderco Stretch in ZDP189 steel but the sheepsfoot shape doesn't work for me as an EDC.

    What is it that makes those Spyderco knives so popular, genuinely curious?
    They look easy to open with one hand.

    I'm not sure but I'm picking as a US knife they have a big target audience.
    For me, they're well made with good ergonomics.
    The Spyderco hole does make them easy to open.
    They have heaps of options for blade steels, from every imaginable exotic material you could want to more budget conscience VG10 base offerings. Plus, not unlike other American made stuff, they have a plethora of aftermarket asd ons. Titanium lanyard holes, Flytanium scales, I even saw a Youtube guy who makes a living off re-profiling and sharpening them.
    There's also a big range. Some fugly, some nice.
    I will alway use a pocket knife more than any hunter I own, so its a great way to learn how to manage and use different steel too.
