Used to collect, but had to break the addiction! I have been carrying the same knives for a couple years now with my first new one in a long time. All my EDC folders are right under 3" blades.
Small Sebenza Insingo - best all around blade ever owned
Ritter mini - light as a feather, tough steel and a fun lock
Hinderer XM18 - a beast that can still slice

I carried Buck 110’s daily long enough to wear 2 out. I got the repaired a Buck, for $10 each. Lately I’ve been rotating through some fixed blades that I’d never use otherwise. I usually have a Loom Fixer in my pocket.

Just picked up a Benchmade Hidden Canyon Hunter. A little bigger that my EnZo Necker, but still works as a neck knife.

Carrying a new one today
I really like it—although a funky design—it is very lightweight and fits the hand well. ZT-Sinkevich 0462.

Although trailing point blades do not ordinarily appeal to me, a few do, and that is one. The most attractive to me are Ethan Becker’s designs, the BK-15 and BK-5. I can do without some of the more garish “Persian” styles, which look more like fantasy knives.

Nice.
I may have mentioned it elsewhere in this thread, but I do like some of the Persian-inspired blades I've seen. May have to add one to my collection at some point.

I carried this knife for the first time yesterday. But I did not use it (yet). I may decide not to, I'm not sure, really. It's a Boker trapper pattern, with mother-of-pearl handles, 440C stainless steel blades, made in Solingen, Germany.
I have probably 8 German-made Boker knives. I like them.
(I did not take these photos. The place that I bought the knife from took them):

I had a Benchmade Osborne Rift knife. It was good, but hard to sharpen. Hard steel.

Nothing fancy.
A Swiss Army knife most of the time. But recently I came across my first.  Offered to me by my uncle when my age could still be written with a single digit. I carried that first one daily until my middle teens. 
Here are past and present together.

Over the years, I bought several SAKs, but I alway shied away from the alox models because they could not accommodate the toothpick and tweezers. Once I discovered those plastic French tickler toothpicks, I was able to wean myself from red cellidor SAKs. In a pinch, I could always use the tweezers on my Micra, which also has better scissors than what you get on a Victorinox. So now I carry an Alox Electrician daily, except when I swap it for a Farmer when I go into the woods.

Benchmade Triage Axis Lock Automatic 9170BK.
I also bought my son the 9170SBK. Same knife but with a partially serrated blade. It has a window breaker on it. The blade is automatic and the seat belt cutter is automatic. Fortunately, I have not needed to use the window breaker or the seatbelt cutter to rescue anybody. Better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it.

Years ago, about 1985, I had a vintage hunting knife taken from me by a cop. He charged me with "carrying a concealed weapon." I had been using it earlier to cut insulation at work. I still had it under my shirt, on my belt, but under my clothes. I explained the situation to him. But no dice. That cop took an antique, pearl-handled knife, made about 1920, from me. I never got it back. They told me later that it was "destroyed." Yeah, suuure it was. I hope the chief is enjoying it now...

I don't like stainless steel blades even tho I do have some. I carry a yellow handled Case Trapper like this one with carbon steel blades. My blades have turned black with age and use.

I have one exactly like that one! Case yellow trapper, CV blades. But I never carry it. I usually carry something smaller: a little Buck 3-blade from circa 1986. About index-finger long.
