Best Folding Knife Recommendations

[Alan]

Hey everyone, I'm trying to narrow down my options for a folding knife and would love to hear what you all carry. What are your go-to blades for everyday tasks? Feel free to share your favorites and why they work for you, plus any pictures if you've got them.

I carry a Gerber Zilch to work, mainly to open boxes, cut tape, etc. It was less than 25 bucks and I wouldn't be too upset if I lost it. Otherwise, I carry either a Swiss Tech Wurdig or a Harbor Freight Icon. I like cheap knives that do the job and won't break the bank. Other knives I have include Opinel No. 7 and No. 8, a couple of Gerber Paraframes and some Smith and Wesson knives.
The Opinels are extremely sharp out of the box and I have given several as gifts.

I've carried a Benchmade Griptilian for years. It's strong, sharpens easily, and feels light in the pocket. I also like Spyderco knives, their handles are super comfortable
