  Pocket Knife

For safety I like a locking blade. I trimmed the end of a finger off with a new Victorinox someone gave me in Switzerland one day.
The Russell had the best steel years ago, but I have not tried a new one. Scharade is a good blade and I carried a cheap orange one for general purpose for years. I have had a KISS blade for about 10 years and I like it for its ruggedness and simplicity.

We bought our first R H Forschner for the kitchen last year. I have not had to sharpen it yet so can not comment on the steel. I worked down the road from the old Russell Harrington factory for years. I am afraid I stocked up on the factory outlet prices. The steel was pretty good and the price was very good.

I was suprised to see the Victorinox Swiss army knives are cheaper here than in Switzerland. A lot of the European companies also use them as give aways. I probably have a dozen over the years with different names and of different sizes. No one ever gave me a Buck. I guess the plastic is easier to pad print on the name.
I am a practical type of person so if you give me something it better be useful. If grandpa was giving me a knife I would want it in my pocket not a keep sake in the drawer.

Thanks Ken; To that end, I said I have been given about a dozen swiss army knives, most the larger ones, and I have given them all away except a small Xerox one I kept in my travelling shaving kit, at least until 2001.
