CF Military
Slysz Bowie
C22 CF Michael Walker

These are the 3 I would keep if I could only keep 3 of the ones I own. They also cover almost all my folder knife needs (would need a pacific Salt for ocean use though)

It would seem I was a little indecisive a year ago. Too many nice knives to chose from I suppose. This hasn't gotten any easier, but I'll give it a shot.

1. Yojimbo 2 S90V with Carbon Fiber scales
2. Any Para-Military 2
3. Bob Lum Tanto Folder with Grey G10 scales

Honourable mention goes to the Caly 3.5 and UKPK. I probably get the most use out of my UKPK's but the Lum is just too beautiful to not have on that list. It's such an elegant and clean design. To be clear I don't mean the original, but the Sprint. The open pillar construction on the Sprint really makes a difference in weight, balance and appearance.

I love these old threads, it's fun to look back to the past. I have to wonder if the PITS will make the top three next year. I've also been eyeing the Slysz Bowie. I Understand what some people meant that they were a little underwhelmed at first when they got it. I felt the same when I held it in my hand. But is it such a simple design, that it's almost boring in a good way? Perfect EDC?
Most recently acquired: Military 2, Paramilitary 2 Tanto x2, YoJUMBO, Swayback, Siren, DLC Yojimbo 2, Native Chief, Shaman S90V, Para 3 LW, Ikuchi, UKPK, Smock, SUBVERT, Amalgam, Para 3 CTS-XHP, Kapara, Paramilitary 2 M390
Grail Paramilitary 2 M390 X 2! ACHIEVED!!

Need to preface my reason for carrying a blade, and my choices will be reflected as such. I have been confronted with a gun in two separate encounters
thus far. Although I carry firearm(s) on most days (where allowed...so much for infringement) I will always have one or two blades for backup.
I don't use my defense blades for EDC use, I carry SAKs for office duty. My vehicles have a minimum of three self defense blades ready to go at all times
(driver door pocket, overhead console, glove compartment/center console)

1) Chaparral
2) Stretch
