Jean Posted May 21, 2021 Report Posted May 21, 2021 Roger, there is even one dedicated to fishers with a tool to scale fishes and remove hooks👍 1 Quote
Rich S Posted May 21, 2021 Report Posted May 21, 2021 I love Swiss Army Knives (SAKs). Have about 60 of them. Oldest is a 1908 model 2. As many collectors of SAKs as Nihonto, probably more. Best reference site is: https://www.sakwiki.com Collectors forum is: https://forum.multitool.org/index.php/board,13.0.html IMHO, most useful tool/knife on planet. From tiny "classic" to big 111mm SAK. As I said above my fav is the Tinker; carry a Deluxe Tinker or Champ in a belt pouch when out or when use to go hiking and backpacking. You can find them at most any online knife dealer, Amazon (careful of knock-offs), Major online official Victorinox site in Switzerland, https://swissarmy.com Just got my latest SAK last week: a 3d scaled Spartan of the Dying Lion of Luzern. Just beautiful; brought back lots of memories of our time there. Mark Twain called it "the saddest and most moving piece of rock in the world". Rich 2 Quote
Marius Posted May 21, 2021 Report Posted May 21, 2021 That discussion belongs in our Izakaya, no? BTW, I love Opinel folding knives. 1 Quote
Rich S Posted May 21, 2021 Report Posted May 21, 2021 Mark- agreed, sort of got diverted several posts back. Brian can you move it there and start a new thread? Like Opinels also. Rich Quote
Bruce Pennington Posted May 21, 2021 Report Posted May 21, 2021 I always thought the guys with multitools on their belts looked dorky. Guess who wears one now! Ha! I use it constantly, practically every day. 1 1 Quote
b.hennick Posted May 21, 2021 Report Posted May 21, 2021 Decades ago, I took a schooltrip to Washington DC. We visited the FBI building. They checked everyone on entry. I of course had a pocket knife. It was just under 3 inches so no problem. It was a Spiderco. I always carry a knife that you can open with one hand. It make it much easier to use. These days, I am carry a Kershaw. Quote
Rich S Posted May 21, 2021 Report Posted May 21, 2021 Kershaw are good (have several), don't like Spyderco (no holes in my blades:-) More into good old fashion slip joints - esp SAKs. BTW, today you couldn't get near the FBI building with a straight pin, much less a knife! rich 1 Quote
Surfson Posted May 21, 2021 Report Posted May 21, 2021 I carry a Kershaw Ken Onion. Fantastic knife and just about at 3", which is legal in Chicago. Quote
