I like this thread. You guys are a bad influence, haha. I'm in the market for a new EDC knife. Currently I have a Gerber Remix as my EDC and for my outdoor adventures I have the Bear Grylls Ultimiate Survival knife. I don't have any actual photos of them, so here are some stock photos.
I have the bear grylls knife too. It mot seem like a gimmick but it's a pretty sweet knife. I have no complaints about it. I also have a gerber lmf II and a SOG WWII MK1 navy issue fighting knife, it's a reissue from song a few years ago, but it's a great field knife.

I know some people frown on Gerber but I have always been very pleased and own many Gerber knives.
I agree. I've owned some very cheap gerbers, which were just ok, but you get what you pay for. All of their mid level or better stuff has always been great. I'm not a fan of their multi-tools though. I'd rather have a leatherman.

I own 4 Esee knives ,I use a knife every day at work and life ...they make excellent tools in my opinion ..the things you can do ,granted you shouldn't do..like pry and twist ....they are super solid and a hell of a deal over other options...I personally like my gerber better than my leatherman but both are awesome..I have two izula 2s,jungalas and a Esse 3 or 4 midsize that is awesome but i never carry it,...my izula is amazing lil blade

My work knife is a Hoffman Richter that I found. My normal folders are a CRKT M16 ZLEK and a Kershaw Brawler. Then I carry a Gerber fixed in the truck. I love all 4 of them

These are my 2 EDC knives. The Kershaw has came in handy many times with the screw bits to not have to dig for my leather man or a screwdriver in my toolbox. The little Gerber on my key chain was an impulse amazon add on for 5 bucks and was so worth it. It is very nice and convenient to have right on my keys.

Just sharpened this morning, sharp enough for shaving ... too bad I don't have facial hair (yes, I have eyebrows)

My wife thinks I carry too many tools around with me, and she's probably right, but here's my EDC tool list:
Rick Hinderer XM 18 3.5 with Slicer Blade - http://www.knifeart.com/rickhinderer5.html
This thing slices through everything like butter and is built like a tank. It can pry, but I have better tools for that.
Leatherman Signal - https://www.leatherman.com/signal-439.html
I've been carrying Leatherman tools since I was a kid. This one is fairly new to the market and is aimed at the boyscout / girlscout in all of us.
I would carry the Rebar on me if it had a pocket clip.
Casey Lynch All Access Pass Pry Tool - http://www.lynchnw.com/
I carry around a larger Les George pry bar out in the weird and wild woods, but this little Lynch is a dynamo for daily doings.
(Here's the link to the George as well: http://www.monkeyedge.com/George-Knives-Ti-Pry-Titanium-Pry-Bar-p/lgk0022-mf045.htm)
Rounding off the kit is a handy little flashlight I picked up originally as a stocking stuffer for my brother, but ended up getting for myself as well:

Below are some of my EDC blades, but I own an ESEE-3 thats stays in my GHB. My ESEE-5 is in my camp gear just in case. I use an old Kershaw Amphibian for cooking. but I do like the Moras. My favorite EDC is the Benchmade Volli First Production.
Lars, that's a good looking, simple knife. Who makes it?

This is mine. It's not pretty, but it is built like a tank, and I love the warranty...
