What do you carry???

Besides my gun I like to carry the Gerber MP600 Multitool. I seem to find a new use for it every day! Just wondering if/what you guys carry with you on a regular basis.

Glock 23 (.40 S&W) and Leatherman Supertool 200 😉

Man U guys are lucky to be able to carry firearms mine have to stay home:(

always carry my Milwaukee fastback… even in gym shorts. 

A credit card

DR just hooked me up with a Milwaukee fastback and I love that knife man…….thanks DR!!

Sig p938 or glock 19 depending on my mood.  Carry a gerber utility knife and spyderco southard or parmilitary 2 also depending on my mood.  Also always have my leatherman charge TTi.

lame with all those tiny blades – I carry a samurai sword 😛

The it’s little laser gun from MiB. That and a Leatherman Mut or a SOG Power Assist at work. At home I have a Leatherman Charge AL. Also my quick wit, sarcastic one liners and natural New England Devil May Care attitude. Oh yeah…and my swinging….;)

Little bit scared of this American gunners…oh and even Germans!!!!

haha

Springfield XD 45 and Leatherman OHT 

All I carry is my cellphone car keys and wallet. I should start carrying a knife or multitool I just don’t like too many things in my pockets. I don’t live that far from Detroit and never felt the need to carry ever, but that’s just me. I’m not an anti gun person I really want a FN Scar-17 that gun is a beast expensive as hell too. I just like the fact it shoots 7.62. The problem is I’m in the city so its a drive to go to a range to shoot rifles.

And….the cost of ammo for the 7.62 ain’t it cheap my man. If you really want a long arm, look for a .223. You can buy conversion kits to make them into .22 calibre for “plinking” at the range. But truth be told Jason, I don’t own any guns, just my work tools. My MUT is specifically designed to field strip my M4 and that’s why I carry it at work. Maybe when I retire I’ll get a gun, but not a darn thing now. Now drill bits….I got me some drill bits! I also got me some nails…I gots me some power tools…:)

I don’t know shit about guns lol

We gotta get ready man with all the shit happening this Ebola crap and oh yea the zombies man!! 😉

lol you are right…good point to have a gun in the house or on the man

My employers generally don’t want me carrying a pistol, so I just stick with a Leatherman Supertool 300. And, honestly with everything else I carry at work, a Smith & Wesson 629 would be a lot of extra weight to carry…

The one thing I always have in my pocket is this German Eye Brand pocket knife. Mrs. Conductor got it for me for our first Christmas together. Eyes are known as working knives and are generally pretty basic, but this is a fancier model with surgical blades, stag handle, nickel bolsters, and brass pins and liners. It’s one of the very few knives you find anymore that’s still hand forged (Notice the slight waves in the back of the blade)

Daily work carry is: Leatherman Wave, Victorinox SwissTool, DarkTort 870 lumen LED, Hinderer XM-18 (clone), “TurboKnife” razor knife, too many keys…

Hey Kato is back!

No I’m not, I’m just a figment of your imagination.

nice conductor – the city “Solingen” where the company is located; is about 1.5h away from my home town

My microtech socom elite tanto satin with carbon fiber inserts:) love ite

Step ur knife game up fellas:)

I was carrying a Scarab but stopped when I got the new job. Figured an OTF would be a no-no in the warehouse, I get enough shit for the flipper I carry.

nice knife frankie

I gotta definitely step mine up!:)

Cool. I really like German knives. Eye Brand is obviously my favorite, but I’ve had Buck Creek, Raging Bull, Hen & Rooster, and even had a Bulldog once which is a little fancier knife produced along with the Eye Brand at the Olbertz Factory. Lots of great German knives.

Frost acquired Hen & Rooster a couple years back and are now making the blades in Solingen, and shipping them to China for finish and assembly. Leave it to Frost to fuck up a good knife

this here is my knife – also made in solingen

nice knife MM

That’s a nice hunter MM. What are the popular brands in Germany?

cant really tell you man, im not so into knives haha. but I know that many blades/knives are manufactured in Solingen.

u see them all around the world

Have two microtechs and honestly they are pretty but when it comes to work I think the spydercos do better. The ergonomics are better the blades seem to hold a edge longer, etc. The microtechs stay in tye safe.

Both the spydercos I carry cost just as much as the microtechs anyway. Both where just shy of 300 both where limited runs.

I love Spyderco knives so thats what i generally carry. Currently the Ulize model is what I carry at work. Matriach 2 or harpy for other things.

Kato i see that hinderer, workhorse i want one with a wharny blade… expensive tho. @yamatitan,,,i have 3 spydercos and vg10 steel that the blades are made of are probaby the best rust resistant steel of all my knives, but i will disagree on edge retention, s30v has been very good to me.

I have real Hinderes , the one in the photo is a clone that I paid $40 for on eBay. Hinderers are built to use but I can’t justify beating up knives that are that expensive. I used a Scarab that was around $400 and that was as far as I will go money-wise for a work knife. Some of my Hinderers are a little bit more expensive than that…and by a little I mean a lot. I’ve used Striders and whatnot that were in the $150-$300 range, but never long enough to really cause them any harm. This clone though, I’m putting it through all kinds of hell, and so far it’s taking everything I throw at it without a peep.

 

I’ve used knifes with Wharncliff blades, they’re okay but I prefer a good recurve over anything else. The straight edge on a Wharncliff is nice for certain types of stuff but I prefer the better cutting ability of a recurve, you get a better pull and if the blade is sharpened right it gives a cleaner, easier cut. The “spanto” is good because it’s beefy and can put up to hard use, but give me a recurve any day

Yea i like the wharny just for looks and i agree 300$ dollar range is the max i will use for a work knife. I heard the clones are actually very good, havnt bought one yet tho.

Surprisingly they’re not that different than the real thing, apart from actually knowing what kind of materials they’re made of you wouldn’t know the difference. Same build, same beefy workhorse feel, same specs. The blade holds an edge pretty well, even after what I put it through. I can strop it on a piece of cardboard while at work and keep it pretty razor-sharp, which tells me that the blade material is at least in the good to pretty good range.

 

There’s a brand called “Wild Boar” that’s about as real as real gets without being the real thing. They run from $65 and up, they’re solid as bricks, and you really can’t tell the difference between them and a real Hinderer. They also make Reeves, Microtech, etc.. If you held one in your hand you couldn’t tell it was a clone, they’re that good.

Both of mine have CTS204P, which has been really good.  Havent had good luck with the microtech s30v benchmades seem better to me.  The microtechs ive had in S35v have been a big improvement but still prefer the spydercos.

Cts204p is a bitching steel, one of the best..so i believe u on that. I aldo hear really good things about elmax and i have 3 knives in elmax but they are not daily users, havnt really used them hard yet.

Kato ive heard of wild boar actually been looking for a wild boar replica of a Hinderer and socom delta for some time since i cant justify paying that much for real deal. Ive seen video reviews and they do look really solid, even have roller bearing and all.. Its amazing how well chinese have copied these knives, wild boar could of really made a name for themselves if they actually created there own designs instead making copies.

We should create a knife collection thread, get a family photo of mine tomorrow

I also carry a milwaukee fsstback, usually the black carbide spring assisted. Great knife

I couldn’t be without my leatherman surge.. ive had several multitools from leatherman, gerber and some other off brands and hands down the surge is the favorite by far.

 

if i don’t want or need the bulk from the multitool then i carry a Gerber paraframe fine edge folding knife for its light weight and slim profile.

I have a zero tolerance 0561 in elmax its pretty decent but Ive had it chip out a little cutting tie wraps.  Havent had that problem at all with the cts204p.

a little late to the party but i highly recommend carrying a small flashlight i use mine everyday

Bought a Milwaukee fastback 2 the other week… It soon let me know who the boss was..

That will teach me for trying to flick it back and forth like the bloke in the you tube video
