Just hit me yesterday, that I don't have just one blade on me at a given time.

On any given day, with my normal setup, it turns out I always have a minimum of 2 on me. Yesterday, for a specific purpose, I ended up with 4.

OK, 5 if we count the cigar punch

I saw a gentleman at a recent gun club meeting with 3 pocket clips showing. He was an older guy, not a tactical ninja type.
I carry one, two if on a boat.
I have an irrational fear of going overboard and getting tangled on an anchor line.

Often none which is a bad habit. Its because I'm always losing them.

I need to do a better job of having a blade on me. I always have a few in my vehicle but I always lose the ones I carry.

I like this little guy... comes with a Kydex sheath that can use a belt clip, or (the way I like it) a neck lanyard.

One Spyderco DragonFly2.
One Spyderco Endura in the car.
Gave my son the Kershaw Skyline since it was too long for me to carry at work.

This knife thing is starting to cost me money.

One for general use, carried at all time at all times unless prohibited (Benchmade 710). I add more for special purposes like hunting, fishing, etc. Multi-tool is in my vehicle or otherwise nearby, but I find it too bulky to keep on my person.

Usually two Kershaws.

Can't hurt to have a backup, right?

Usually a large plain edge and smaller serrated beater knife, between the two they work for just about everything. I keep a fixed blade, hatchet, and saw (amongst other tools) close by.
