I carried a Schrade for years. It was a carbon steel stock knife and would hold a edge forever. I replaced it with a Schrade Walton but it was stainless and was nothing special. I still miss that Schrade to this day.... Tedd

Kershaw...like a Leek...really nice knives made in USA, maybe $50-75. They are spring assisted and open like a switch blade...one handed and lightning FAST! That big buck knife is crazy $. Then...you have to pay ANOTHER $11.00 for the Snake Eye to clean it. That's nuts!

At a coffee and friends meeting a couple years ago I was asked by a friend if he could borrow my knife to cut up some cake his his wife had brought for us. He remarked how sharp it was, I replied yes my dad and I castrated 5 sheep yesterday.
.... True story... It still surprises me how few people carry knives anymore and those people always know you do and want to borrow yours...... Tedd

I bought a couple Leatherman REBAR tools in black finish
I do not want to be without one if the other is lost along the way or "borrowed"

Prior to the new cannabis laws put in place here in Canada. If you had any kind of criminal record, you had to be careful just carrying a pea-shooter with you.
Forget pulling a knife out to cut your apple while waiting at the bus stop.
Being caught carrying a knife here with the slightest resistance ( due to carrying a few rockets & a stagger from a little wobbly pop ) would get you a Billy Club beating with cut up wrists from the hand cuffs haha.
I don't re-call this first hand, but I do know, the scars on my wrists haven't faded away yet.

edzolz, I don't see how you put the Case and Barlow in the same category. The Case is a premium knife for sure and the Barlow is more of an entry level knife of pretty good quality. I had lots of Barlow knives when I was a kid and now carry a small 2 blade case. There used to be a cartoon character who had a Barlow knife. Who was he?
