A mat knife in my back pocket, and a gerber EZ-out clipped to a front pocket. The razor knife cuts everything except tie line and apples, and is cheap, with easily replaceable blades. I've tried many, many other knives, and this one reeks of "I tried it for a while and then couldn't find more blade replacements". Even if you can find them, 10 bucks?! That's a lot of razor blades. The Gerber is light, easily resharpenable with a diamond hone and only $25. I've misplaced three of them in seven years and it's still money well spent to get a new one.
