Reviving the thread... In my case, for a fixed blade as one tool option as of now, it would be my Esee Laser Strike. Image

Much has changed in the past year. Fixed blades have made way for small, light and pocketable folders. The RAT 2 is currently the one tool in rotation.

@ Kshitij - sometime back, I'd picked up an Ontario RAT 2 on a friend's recommendation - it is indeed a superb carry knife!

Cheers!

@Kshitij I am planning to pick up a RAT folder as well which might replace my Boker fire ant as EDC. But I personally prefer a solid fixed blade in situations of one tool carry.

Though i would love my daily routine to be dramatic enough to need a fixed blade knife, the reality is that it doesnt. A small folder easily dispatches any task that comes my way. And while thick heavy fixed blades are still my first love, they cant beat the light, compact and unobtrusive folder as an edc option.

Agree, most of the real world, especially urban situations do not necessitate a big fixed blade knife, I too carry a folder as EDC.
