This is my ideal Phantom with an olive ash veneer:

Olive wood is the best wood. I wish it to be noted in the annals of Oppo that I basically own a Phantom.

Show us your pocket knives.

Has to be the classic. I build my boxen with this, and a hundred other things get fixed as well.

I don’t have a current EDC as there is something I don’t like about most of my knifes/multitools.

This is what I want for my next one. I hope it’s comfortable to actually carry and performs the minimum function I need on something I always have on me.

I have that same number 8 and hate it. I just can’t find anything redeeming about it.

My regular carries...

Pretty sure the Sheffield is a walmart/target special but the smallest form factor razor blade carrier I’ve found.

It`s super light but just the right size to carry around without being all tooth-necklassy.. plus I figure if it`s good enough for the king of Sweden..

CRKT Fire Spark. I like it because the blade is spring loaded so that when you push that ridged thumb stud to the side it the blade deploys. It’s kinda big for a pocket knife, but that’s not a deal breaker for me.

Really? I mean, horses for courses, but I love them. I mean, I admit that I just like the idea of a knife that has been basically unchanged since the 19th century and completely unchanged since the 1950s, but I think that they look great and the carbon takes a stupidly sharp blade.

I have that one minus the screwdrivers so I can't speak to comfort since it adds extra width. I carried it for a long time. Literally saved a dogs life with it but cutting its collar off that got twisted and was choking to death

I’ve watched enough Youtube reviews of assisted opening knives to know that there’s no way I could own one without losing a finger.

That said, I really want a gravity knife.

I have that one. It's my back up for the off occasion I forget my normal carry knife. Stays tucked away in my planner otherwise

I usually do not carry a pocketknife, but today I grabbed this giveaway knife from my Union Christmas party goodie bag.

Everyday I carry a quick change Stanley razor knife. Best bang for the buck that holds extra blades.

I just can’t the damn thing open easily. The idea is cool but it’s a bitch and a half to open and I dont want to have to do so 500 times to break it in.

I have been the the hospital twice for knife related injuries, mainly because of accidents due to me trying to open a folding knife..

For what it’s worth, I can open the olive wood one with one hand. Maybe it’s spotty quality control. Did yours ever get wet? I’ve read that if they get wet, the wood can swell and become really difficult to open.

I chopped off the tip of my pinky trying to peel a vegetable with a ceramic peeler, so I know my limits when it comes to sharp things.

On the plus side, I think it makes me a member of the Yakuza.

Ever since I opened it the first time I’ve needed a coin or bend my fingernail back since the only thing the catch on the blade is the little knotch

I have the same olive-handled Opinel No8! Bought them as groomsman gifts for my wedding. Also a soft spot for SAKs - my first knife was a Swiss Army.

Too many other knives to get into, but for today I’ve got a Spyderco Delica in my pocket - another favorite.

I have an unhelthy obsession with Moras and Frosts. Waiting for an Eldris.

In my work bag I keep a Victornox Spartan in black that was a groomsman gift from my brother in law.

The 277 above was a groomsman gift from a Jalop.

It’s a bitch to get open (however mine may be defective). Not crazy about the handle, no clip... But it’s just not what I’m used to. It’s like me comparing my tactical Mossberg to an old break action side by side.

My third Kershaw and couldn’t be happy. First was a whirlwind my gf at the time got me. After we split it fell out of my pocket on a pier and was lost forever. Got back together with the gf and she asked about it. Ordered myself a replacement like nothing ever happened.

+1 for Opinel Carbones, I have have both the 8 and the 12, and also the basic carbon Morakniv which is by far one of the best utility knives I’ve ever owned.

I have a Opnel, it’s a good knife for $10. My real love though is a Mora Forrest 311. I’d daily it, however Manhattan kinda frowns on fixed knives of it’s size.

Hand made full tang laminate steel, so nice.

Gotcha. Noticed after I wrote that you already had to answer that question - my bad. I pretty much only carry mine when I’m wearing a suit or something (figured it’s more classy than most folders I carry) so utility has never been a huge concern. Anyhow, seems to be how the Europeans like their knives these days...two-handed open/close and no locking mechanism unless you manually turn the ring.

I’ve got an original Leatherman that my father-in-law gave me even before I married his daughter that I’ve carried ever since. It’s in my bag everyday, (unless I have to fly or have jury duty...) It’s saved my butt several dozen times.
