I'm a big OCMS fan, but I think I'm the only person in the free world who doesn't like Mumford. Not too familiar with Edward Sharp, but his voice reminds me of a Prius commercial.

I carry a Leatherman Fuse and a Case Medium Stockman daily as tools, not protection. During hunting season I carry a Remington Big Game folder with rubberized handle and bone saw/gut hook.
