    Pocket Knives

    Seems like in detailing there is always a package to open, a bottle to pop the freshness seal, or something needing the blade from a good pocket knive. So what do you carry ??

    Been looking at the Magnum line from Boker as offer reasonable pricing and some great looking locked blade knives. So please tell more !

    I always have my trusty Swiss Army knife that my mother in law picked up for me when she went to Switzerland. Nothing like having the REAL thing

    I love pocket knifes. I carry a Gerber lock back for everyday. I have some SOG and Kershaw I use for good.

    Re: Pocket Knives

    Great post! This little guy is my baby, extremely smooth manual action. It has a tiny ball in the liner lock that is the only contact to the blade as it opens (well besides the hinge of course), very little friction. The "hidden" auto action is the emblem embedded in the grip. It's a hair trigger that requires a very firm press to release. The auto action is very strong for such a small knife. The first time it was actually used for anything was to open a big 'ole box from AG, the blade got a tiny scuff and that was it, back to the shelf. Not like it's that expensive, but I have other knives to "use".

    A friend of mine is an avid collector of custom knives, many of which are in the $500-$1000 range, he just got one he's been waiting on for 1 1/2 years. It was $850 I think, absolutely stunning knife. I'll post some pics of his collection for you soon.
