Over the years I have carried lots of different knives yet I always keep coming back to my one true love. I haven't found a real world cutting task this knife cant do well, it excels in pockatablity, sheeple friendly and cant beat the price. Spyderco Dragonfly Salt H1 SE
In the words of Eric Glesser -"We found the serrated H1 out cut's anything we have ever tested"

A close second is the Victorinox Alox Cadet- love the versatility of this knife, great for random finger nail cleaning, bottle opening and filling that "all other" stuff category you dont need a cutting tool for. Colors are super fun and its nice and light package for how munch function it brings.


Whats your favorite small EDC knife? Pic's if you got'em.

Im with ya, i just started a dragonfly thread this morning. I dont know if i could pick a favorite knife, but its definatly in my top 5 folders.
I also carry a victorinox classic sd on my keychain everyday. Those things are probably one of the handiest knives out there. And mine always gets to ride through security at theme parks and court houses with no hiccups.

I had no idea the half track was that small. I thought it was another full size hinderer design. Ill have to look into that.
 
I've found that I like a bigger folder, say 3.75-4" blade and a smaller fixed blade such as my fallkniven juni or bastinelli picolomako. For me, this is the most useful combination and for all the frightened people out there in the world the.juni is.perfect at a allaying their fears of me being a slasher. The fallkniven is just too cute a knife in their eyes. It's a solid dependable knife that has never let me down.
 
Not super small but my mother in law picked this up for me as a bday present. It's exactly the same size and feel as that of a mini grip the bone and micarta handle was done surprisingly well. My work etc rotation though is the: Mini copper lock, mini wharnie trapper, mnandi, and a fidele Le thiers.

BM 707, Spydie Chaparral and Rookie G10. If I had to choose one it would still be the Rookie but I'd rather not have to choose. :)

I had an Alox cadet stuffed in my pocket. I had to tighten up the screws on a toilet seat in my first floor.

The cadet is arguably the smallest and most useful edc that I keep in rotation. Supremely handy.

 
My favorite little modern folder is a buck 283, and favorite little traditional is an imperial peanut.
 
Gotta be the Techno. It feels big, but is actually small, both a must in my not-knife-friendly city.
