What are you carrying? Or what is on your wish list to carry?

I have a SOG flash and SOG flash II. I like them, enought to buy the second one..... and for the price don't mind beating them up. Have been looking at nicer custom folders, and even some custom fixed, although i'm not sure how much i'd wear a fixed.
 
As far as off the shelf knives, I have several from CRKT, SOG, Spyderco, Benchmade, and Kershaw. I like them all. But then, I live knives and find it difficult to find a reason not to buy one.

As far as your more custom knives, I like Bushcrafters and Blindhorse Knives. I have a couple of there straight blade knives. They are quality tools and handmade. But they cost like a handmade knife.
 
I have an opinel #7

It is so simple, and the carbon steel blade can take a better edge than most. Doesn't like water though, the handle will swell and make it hard to open. Still one of my favorites.
 
I have a bark river 'little creek'. Nice knife, sharp, full tang, very small. Measures like 5.5". Fixxed blade.
 
I carry a single blade Swiss Army all the time and a Swiss Army rescue tool at work. I have a Gerber folding blade with a rubber handle on my life jacket.
 
I really don't carry mine on me at all times. It's in my turkey vest or on my belt for deer hunting. It does fit nice in a pants pocket if you have to. I put a small piece of tarred line in a loop through the handle to be able to pull it out quicker.

I'd post a picture of it but I don't know how to resize pictures on the ipad
 
An Uncle Henry 3-Blade knife that a buddy gave me when I turned 21. Hard to believe I've had it 24 years!
 
One of those little Swiss Army knives that is like 2"s long. A blade, a nail file, scissors on the other side, and the little tweezers and toothpick.
 
Everyday - Buck 505 small, thin, strong with a good blade. Does the job without the bulk.

Fishing, bird hunting, small game and deer - either of . CaseXX, Buck 503U, Uncle Henry, and last but not least, Imperial, in various sizes. I worked in the steel mill that made the steel for Imperial, and have butchered many a deer with them.

All of my pocket knives, and sheath knives, are my good friends, with Lots of history. Kept sharp and clean, and ready to go to work.........

One of my best memories was when I worked in the steel mill scrap yard, and I got to dump and entire Truck Load of CaseXX Rejects. Guess how many made it into the furnaces?
 
In my pocket is a Remington turkey knife with the punch and choke tool. I never get dressed without my original Leatherman and a Mini Maglight on my belt -Never!!!A plug to Leatherman, please bring back the original, does everything I need without the bulk
