Favorite Knives
I like good tools that have quality and purpose.
For my kayak multi-purpose ready knife, I like having a Morakniv Companion Fixed Blade on a cord around my neck. I use a paracord style neck cord that stretches like a bungee for comfort. I buy that stretch cord by the yard from an Army Surplus store. Also convenient on the neck cord hanging with the knife sheath is a signal whistle and large size nail clippers for cutting fluorocarbon leaders and knots off of hooks. Morakniv Companion Fixed Blade: - High quality design and strong material - Lightweight, simple elegant design - Holds up well to salt water and abuse - 4.1" blade of high quality stainless steel, durable thickness, razor sharp - Durable molded synthetic handle & sheath is smooth and comfortable - Sheath has multiple ways to mount, including good belt/vest clip - Knife snaps in securely and holds comfortably from any angle - Razor sharp blade cuts braid, lines, cords, rope effortlessly - This knife arrived so sharp I have not had a need to resharpen yet. - multi-purpose blade shape from cutting bait to emergency use - grips well when wet - Low cost/high value @ $17 - Made in Sweden https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00BTJKB00...533052894&sr=4 This Milwaukee Fastback folding knife I found on the sidewalk. It has turned out to be my most useful regular carry all-purpose utility knife. - Very strong and tight, like a good tool should be - Stainless steel blade, piercing tip and smooth, controlled cutting - Blade is about 3" and stout. Overall length folded is about 5" - Easy one-hand flip open, locks securely in closed and open positions - Sharpens easily. I tend to sharpen regularly to maintain razor edge - Convenient hole at back for split ring or lanyard - Strong reversible wire clip for belt or vest pocket, etc. - Slim & compact for it's size. Comfortable and smooth in the pocket. - Remarkable tool strength in a flip knife for only $15 at Home Depot https://www.homedepot.com/p/Milwauke...1990/203981004 I like lots of exotic and collectible knives too. These are both durable and practical. Any other suggestions?
