“...and they would still be part of Germany.”

“
This is the style of knife I usually take backpacking. Never needed more.”

“I have that same knife SS. It's a great little knife. My only complaint with it is that it doesn't keep an edge as well as my other Buck knives. I think the steel they used for it is a little softer that what was used in my other Buck knives. It's not that big of a deal; I just have to sharpen it more often.”

“I've always been partial to a small to mid-sized swiss army knife.I have a BIG one (6 layer)now because it was a gift, but like the smaller ones better. I'll take a 4" blade sheath knife on long canoe trips but it's razor sharp hardened blade usually gets me bleeding in the hands of my brother-in-law. I always bring gloves to paddle with if I'm going with him. My military baby brother scoffs at anything that isn't ats-34 or 154cm.”

“I know a bunch of people that will LOVE that french army knife. I actually like the rural french. It's the city french, I can't stand.”

“I like Swamp Rat Knives. They have a solid reputation...just do a google search and read some of the reviews.

This is the one I carry... SAR rat. It's not one of their normal offerings but if you're patient they'll offer it every now and then, just check their bboard.”

“I have the leatherman micra with the scissors. I attached it to my titanium spork with a key ring . It's a nice combo.”
