The first step in recovery is admitting you have a problem. I am a "knife-ololic".
I'm not going to go thru the list of what I own. Let me just say there is a little bit of knife shame in carrying a plastic looking knife, but you guys need to spend about $10 - $15 bucks on a Mora knife. It will set you free. I suggest the stainless version but they do make carbon versions.
For the backpackers they are light. Survival schools basically had them out as attendance prizes for the students to use. Hold a wicked edge, easy to sharpen. You can even run them thru the cheap carbon stick all in one sharpeners and come out with a good edge.
I have one in every backpack and vehicle I own with a few to spare. My EDC folder is a Sypderco folder, usually the Delica, sometimes the Endura.
