For my EDC: 8-9 out of 10 times since about 2015 will be Cold Steel full-size AK-47 folder/ Back then I purchased 4-6 of these at $50/knife. Still EDC-ing the first one despite losing the Demko thumb plate. That said... it made me use Loctite on all the rest of my Cold-Steels w/ this feature for loss prevention. For my multi-use... the Triad Lock design on a folder is the greatest strong-suit benefit.

Best suited because I live in a hot weather climate I wanted something very lightweight but with a decent length of blade that I won't hate riding in the pocket of lightweight shorts.

My most used knife, is the Manly Patriot in D2, which even though I've sharpened it a lot the last 5 years, it's still look as if I haven't removed any steel! They literally do the best heat treatment on D2 steel and they also make the best full flat grinds out there, that are super thin behind the edge. That doesn't only provide cutting performance but also the geometry won't change to really fat, as you sharpen that knives through the years! If only they made a bit thicker handles, but that's an issue wtih most if not all production knives (except Morakniv and Ka-Bar/Beckers)

In the last year outside of work, I've been carrying in order of most carried Heretic Medusa, Microtech utx 85 Se edge half serrated, Kizer GTI, heretic wraith, boker kalashnikov xhp blad, and kizer domin. Just got a Chaves street redencion yesterday and the nostalgia of this knife brings me back 20+ years. It's similar in handle to two knives I bought in 2001. Those knives were carried until I broke one blade and the handle fell apart on the other. Frankensteined them together and eventually that broke too. They both had chunky blades, not sure what crap steel they were made of. Dulled super quick. I think combined I spent less than $35 for the pair. Why would I compare them to a Chaves? I do because I've spent years looking for something similar in build to those knives, only this time the knife is quality built. I believe this will be my main edc for the foreseeable future. I love it. I just can't say enough about it. I like the skull clip too. Feel like a kid again! I have a pretty big want list, but now any time a different chaves pops up that will jump to the head of the list.
