If you had asked me a few weeks ago, I would have said Canoe, but recently I bought a 2 blade Copperhead that has quickly become on of my favorite pocket knives.
Anyone else?
What's your fav'!

Tuff question for me to answer,I have to many favorites. I really like the stockman pattern and I have recently been bitten by the barlow bug. 4 1/4 inch trappers are probley at the top of my list tho.
By the way it's nice to run into you here. I have enjoyed your posts on a couple of other forums.

Thanks, I do get around! I have my first 4 1/4 trapper on the way in the mail now, well the first that I will carry. I have an early 1970's Queen that belonged to my dad, but I don't take it out of the house for fear of losing it.

My favorite slipjoints for EDC are the stockman ie. cattleman and the Wittler models. I like having the right blade for the work im doing at hand.

I'm pretty fond of canoes and my interest in trappers seems to be growing but I think my favorite slipjoint pattern has to be the barlow.
Funny thing is, at the moment, I only have one. A Boker.

Mine's either a 6111 1/2L, a 6254 trapper, or a stockman. A congress in pearl. My 1922 Cattaraugus Pearl Physician knife is my favorite, but I don't carry it around.

The stockman, mainly cos there's a sheepsfoot blade i can use for cutting rope and its slim so it fits nicely in the pocket.

I usually carry a Case Seahorse Whittler, but today it's a canoe. Depends on my mood, I guess - don't know if I have a favorite. Although I only have Seahorse Whittlers, Canoes, a Copperhead, and a Stockman, so I guess those must be my favorites (traded away all the rest)
