My current Swiss Army in a belt case is the only knife I've ever been able to carry daily and keep up with over a period of several years. I always lose jacknives carried in the pocket. I have several others of various styles and sizes but they tend to just linger in my gun case at home. That's the only way I can keep up with them.

Buck Ranger, #112. Had it over 50 years. And I have my Navy Kabar around here somewhere. My Uncle gave it to me when he returned from Korea. WWII manufacture.

I do have one of these Buck Specials presently but I rarely use or carry it for anything... It's a very handsome knife though..

Yeah, the Ranger has about a 1" shorter blade. Nice steel (holds an edge forever) and fits the pocket better than the 110. I think it was about $24 when I bought it, a lot of money for a teenager back then.

Found an Old Timer years ago, sitting on the side of the highway. Carried it for years, until I lost it....

Spyderco Endura half serrated half plain. I love them, I buy a new one every two years or so. I've lost a couple, gave a couple away but I always go back to them.

Benchmade AFCK - M2 high speed steel blade. 20 years strong. Holds an edge like you wouldn't believe.
Used to cut carpets, boxes, whatever. Still slices steak like butter.

I've carried a pocket knife everyday for 58 years. I use it daily for an assortment of chores. The Barlow has been a reliable tool and very cheap. I used to carry a knife in school every day, and even sharpened my pencils with it right in class. Today I would be in jail for that. We used to hunt before and after school. Yep had the rifles and shotguns in the car at school. The shop and gym teachers would say bring it in and lets see what you have. Things sure have changed.
