That's sort of my philosophy, too I guess. That's why my everyday carry is an Old Timer pocket knife. It's a bad boy when it comes to cardboard boxes, packing tape and envelopes.Quote:

The original question on the thread was “What knife do you prefer?.....I prefer options.
Never run with those in your pocket and be very very careful when you sit down.
Yeah - kind of learned that from Beo. Where is Trooper anyway? A'int buying at his mom's and no computer.
That's Beo's story isn't it. I suspect foul play. I sure hope he isn't tied in his bedroom with Mexican finger locks to keep him off the keyboard.
Probably testing the new SRT police issue gear.

Jesus christ!!! If the goverment come at you at least you will be prepared to go on the run.
:DYou should see the gun collection.:D
CHEAP, there's something I can relate to. My Brother's are always calling me cheap, but I prefer to think of it as conservative. I mean, just because I get food off the dollar menue at wendys, and make gifts for birthdays, doesn't make me cheap. Besides, making somehting is much more special than buying somehting. Anyone can go to a store and buy something, but if I carve something that takes time and skill. But everyone calls me cheap. The only money I spend is at this little Military surplus store. Hey is that kukri you have on top in your picture a real ghurka kukri from Nepal?
Yes it is. Well I think it is.
It's a real Florida Kurhki now.
Do you ever use that kukri, or is it more of a collectable?
I use it. When I first got it (yep - you guessed it) at one of the shows in town, I put an edge on it and then went out and purposely abused it cutting back brush, limbs, fallen dead wood just to see how it held up. Held up just fine. Not a bad tool for under $20 (think I payed about $12 but can't remember).
:eek: holy cow!! I can't believe you got it for that cheap. This is really impressive. The last gun show I went to didn't have any good knives, just old beat up bayonets.
Cheaper Than Dirt has one that looks similar (don't know if it is) for under $10. Don't know what shipping costs are or the quality of the material.
Is that "Ebony Handled" Buck-Knife the "General" or the "Special"?:confused: the only place I could find the "General was at Cabela's.:cool:
I've looked at that one in cheaper than dirt, but I get a gut feeling it's not quality. I'm sure the one you get at the gun show is much better. My brother got me a cheap kukri from some catalogue, and it was really bad. Stainless steel blade, printed china right on it. The handle was two cheap pieces of metal stuck together, and I doubt that the tang went even half way down inside the handle. Of course I acted like I loved it...I mean it's my brother!
