EagleTac D25C2 mini flashlight. This light may or may not remain an EDC light. So far the larger size has not been a problem. The light output of course is huge compared to my favorite EDC light, the Fenix LD01. What I have learned is if I do want to carry this larger (size and lumens) light is not so big it's a burden.

Sorry to get off topic from "what Spyderco" is in your pocket. One thing that would make for a more complete selection of knives would be the Stretch, GB or something with a longer blade.

Jack, could you tell me what exactly you did to your manbug, I really think it looks great and would love to hear the details...thanks
Thanks. I got the G-10 Manbug of course. I absolutely love FRN material for scales. Especially with the pattern Spyderco puts on their FRN handles. The G-10 is my favorite Manbug handle though. The scales on it now are blue mother of pearl kirinite. I also got the ZDP Manbug and the sprint with SB. I've had both blades on the G-10 handle but right now the SB blade is on the knife. I also ground the blade spine similar to the Jester. I also put a bit of a polish on the blade. One good thing about little knives is when I buy scale material for another knife sometimes there's enough scrap to make a set of scales for a small knife. I'm made several sets of scales for this Manbug. I only made this set because I had the extra material and I was bored. :) When I was done they looked a lot better than I expected. Prior to this I had red bone on there and that was my favorite of the ones I've made. Double black G-10 looks great also. The contrast of black and silver bolsters is awsome.

For me like most people it's IMPOSSIBLE to pick a one and only favorite knife. But the Manbug falls into the group I'd pick from. :)

Was the Manix2 lightweight that I have had for 3 days, now it is back to my much loved & trusted Centofante 4. The Cento carries just right for me & is enough knife for most times.

This little guy showed up yesterday, so of course it's in the pocket today. I now know what Spyderco scary sharp is! Holy schnikies. Too sharp to shave well. Hair splitting sharp.

First target of opportunity that presented itself, for a fair fight based on size...dragonfly vs duck heart:

I just cannot kick my orange spy-dk out of my
Pocket . I wasn't overwhelmed with it when I first got it, the back spring is raised and quite gappy around the frn handle
but it fits my hand so well and the n690co is holding up well ,think its is my favorite user steel.

Dropping down in size for a while, from M4 Manix2 and Techno to S110V Native5 and Air, just to mix it up.
