What is your favorite "CARRY" tool

[Mike7.62]

An H&K P2000SK .40, and a Swiss Army Knife. I carry both daily on my person.

I think single action makes a better carry tool than double, looong pulls and short sight radius don't go well together. I like my Sig P938SAS hanging in a KHolster...

Not a thing wrong with that SIG

When I train under 7 yards with the LCP, I don't use the sights.
I still train at 15 yards with sights, but it does take a lot of practice.
Truly prefer my .38 snub or .45 1911, but I generally just carry the LCP.

Sorry for the thread hi-jack.

Good choice - Ruger LCP for me in a Crossbreed MiniTuck. About 90% of the time for the LCP, .38 snubbie otherwise.

Ditto...I do the exact same...Love my Ruger LCP with laser sight....and my S&W 38 snub for when I am out on the tractor...too dirty for the LCP...

i don't carry anything on me, reason for mounting spots on tractor to carry 5 gallon buckets. toss what i need in them for most likely doing for given project, and off i go.

The most useful on the RTV900 is a 14" chainsaw, fuel and oil. Too often we have trees down on the trail.

Yup, a 14" chainsaw lives on the ATV. But how about a machete? I keep one tucked under the rear carrier and another under the dash of the golf cart. A cheap one kept sharp with a die grinder is the fastest way to knock back wild rose, blackberries, thistle, as well as good sized branches out on the trail. I can complete a little task with the machete in the time it takes just to fire off the chainsaw. Replaces lopers & clippers, too.

Pretty confident it would deter critters as well.

Carried a Leatherman for years and finally figured out that as long as it was with me I always almost had the right tool for the job. Now a cheap Buck folder is always clipped inside my rear pocket.

No real cash outlay means you don't feel bad if you lose it or abuse it. Good, useful stuff and I got over the 'Gee Whiz' factor of the brand name, high-priced stuff long ago.

As for that other hardware ya'll are bragging about, you'll just have to wait for the surprise to find out for sure.

JMO but I don't think the OP intended this thread to be about firearms...just sayin...

btw...I always carry a small ligh case pocket knife and I almost go no where without a flat nail bar that can double for a multitude of tools...

I carry a Leatherman Wave and a Fenix (1-cell LED) flashlight, both on my belt. I'm a desk jockey.. computer programmer. Wouldn't think I would need tools, but I use one or the other almost daily. Awkward, but so handy I've put up with them for years.

Leatherman Wave! Best multi tool ever!

For me it's the original Leatherman tool my son gave me 25 ys. ago, whether I'm wearing jeans or a suit. 10 yrs ago I lost it while working a bird dog somewhere out on a buddy's 300-acre farm. 1-1/2 yrs later a hunter found it in a field, still in pristine condition. I'd bought another in the meantime, but the first has sentimental value, so its replacement sits in dresser drawer. Interesting that others carry a buck knife or folding box cutter in addition. Haven't seen the need for that, as the Leatherman's blade keeps a good edge with an occasional touch-up. The wire cutters on the needle-nose pliers cut everything from baling twine on square bales daily to wire field fence and old barb wire. Sounds silly, but I really am afraid to leave home without it.

Interesting question. I carry my Cabelas Black card, an IPhone and a Bond Snakeslayer usually. All my implements have on board tool boxes so the usual assortment of tools plus a grease gun in each. Out in the field, I have a rack in the cab that secures a 17HMR Savage for those wayward song dogs and wood chucks.
