bi-fold. harder to steal (because they can actually fit comfortably in a front pocket...where your hand can guard it)

trifold fits fine in my front pocket :p

right now, my wallet is a nice leather bi-fold that I got for Christmas from my b/f. personally, I prefer tri-folds, but only because I've never found a bi-fold that has a hole to attach a wallet chain to it.

the bi-fold is nice and convenient (and far more professional looking than my -A-narchy hot topic wallet :p), but I miss that big, industrial-strength, down-to-the-knees wallet chain that I used to wear when going to shows.

Bifold... Trifolds are too hard to open with one hand, they are too bulky, and they screw up the bills you put in them... i hate trifold-wallet bills.

My wallet is a leather bifolding one with a little gold plated piece in one of the corners with my initials engraved into it.

Bifold r0x0r5.

Unifold! Two places for credit cards, place for ID, and then little pocket for half-folded bills. This way, it fits in my front pocket. I hate big wallets.

Guys, what do you do for wallets when you sit on them in your back pocket your cards slowly bend out of shape? My CC cards have always after a few months broken in half..

My wallet has one side for ID, the other side is a money clip, and you can open it up for CCs and other cards.

I've always liked the look of tri-folds better. I never leave the thing in my pocket when I sit down, anyways, so I don't mind that it's a little thicker. Money clips are always good, too. Throw in your ID, some cash, and a credit card or two, and that's all you really need.

I use a money clip attached to the back of a leather card holder thingy (2 credit card sized pockets, holds 4-5 cards)


EDIT: I should've said that I have a "BAD MOTHERFVCKER" wallet
