Just one reason why about 95% of the time, I wear these Blackhawk Warrior Wear tactical pants....they have 11 pockets (!), which gives plenty of carry options.So many sweet knives -- not enough pockets. What's a guy to do?
As Steve Martin once said, "Let`s get SMALL !"
Been carrying and using this nice little Buck for close to 40 years. When new, it once slipped out of my pocket, but I was able to find it, and immediately made a leather rough-out case for it, kept it secure in the pocket all these years....

Actually, it`s a Knight (Model 505), the smallest of the 500 series. Incredibly solid and capable for it`s size....Is that a Colt? I used to have one of those years back. Great little knife.
I call that Voyager "a folding chain saw", I once cut a 7-pound roast beef in half with it, was shocked at how effective it is against meat (!) Decided at that point to carry it only for defensive purposes (with a 5 1/2" blade, it would be quite devastating), so it never saw work duty....I have many other knives that would work well in that capacity.What are your thoughts on the serrated blade of this knife? I have an older cold steel "el lobo" with similar serrated blade and really like the serrations. I would say close in performance to the Spyderco style serrations.
thanks!
A Chinese Uncle Henry Lock Back 1(LB1). Not the best quality (blade play, had to superglue in the 3 brass bolsters?/pins, and I removed the keychain holder bc it was junk). Nevertheless a small functional (until it breaks causing me to cut myself lol) lockback. The older U.S. made Uncle Henry lockbacks are real nice. Ive got the newer Chinese made LB1 and LB7 and the older U.S. made LB3 and LB5. The Chinese LB7 is decent. Blade centered, "zero" blade play, and smooth enough (it aint no Reeves or Spyderco View attachment 868558 though).
Strange days, indeed. I prefer the times when they automatically gave you a little 4-pack of free cigarettes as you boarded the plane (!). Once, when I was in Florida, (pre-1970s) I bought a nice little Barretta .22 auto pistol in a Montgomery Wards Department store, just slipped it into my pocket, and carried it home like that on the plane....no muss, no fussFlying today. I feel naked.
