Kershaw CQC-3K. It's an Emerson clone. Got it for $13 delivered from Massdrop, the Wave opener makes it super easy to use when holding something (or someone) with your other hand. Plain blade, sharpens fine for an EDC knife, and if it breaks or you lose it, who cares about a $13 knife?
All Spyderco. I have a older Gayle Bradley Air that I use for opening packages and letters etc and a Paramilitary 2 DigiCamo with black DLC blade. These two I always carry but I also have a Brad Southard flipper with the 204P steel.
I really like the Gayle Bradley folders especially the GB2. The M4 is really a great steel.
I have some really nice ones, but the one I usually carry and use every day is a cheap Old Timer Junior Stockman. I like the small size, and the three different blades actually come in handy.
I carry an Opinel all the time, such a great knife to actually carry in your pocket. I had a no8 for 35 years, but had broken the point 3 times, I upgraded to a No9, a little bigger but still good in a pocket.
I stopped trying to carry a pocketknife in 2006 when I was traveling by air every week on business, and I never got back into the habit of carrying one again.
I have one of these that I use all the time. It's got a great weight to it, super smooth action, and feels extremely well-built. Also includes a 'glass point' on the back end, plus a "j-knife". Awesome knife.
K.I.S.S. folder (CRKT 5500). Rarely not carried (If I remember, which I always don't, I'll remove it when entering security-controlled buildings like Traffic Court. They aren't supposed to, but if I forget they have always just held it for me at the detector).

What a beast. I bet my Ruger LCP is nearly as light and small as that.
I always have a CRKT My Tigh with a non serrated blade in my regular clothes. I'm big with big hands and it's a nice, heavy knife with assisted open. I can open it one handed no problem.
At work, I have an old Blackie Collins Speedster that someone snapped the tip off of years ago so I re shaped and sharpened the blade. It's got a composite handle and is fairly slim and light. It is not open assist but I can also open it one handed. I've had that knife for about 25 years.
If I have to dress nice and the My Tigh is too big, I have a Ken Onion Chive. Nice little knife. I almost never carry it though.
Fan of the benchmade 940, had a couple for a long while now, but then I got a benchmade 903 and really like the G10 handle.
Can't say I carry either with regularity - I just don't care to have a knife in my pocket which I never use/need. I carry them interchangably when situations arise where they may b needed for whatever Im doing.
