All About Pocket Knives

This group should cover basically everything I need today without weighing me down. I have multitools that, alone, weigh more than this entire combo. In fact, the next largest Leatherman I carry, the Rebar, still weighs almost double than this entire carry (3.66 ounces) at a little over 7.5 ounces itself. The Gerber I just picked up this morning (was delivered yesterday, which I don't get--USPS normally does not run on a holiday) The P4, the older Leatherman Squirt, I much prefer. It has an extra-small slotted screwdriver (great for glasses and electronics) and an awl in the place of the pretty mediocre (and easily broken) scissors of the PS4 that replaced it in the lineup (and ironically, I replaced a broken PS4 with the older, secondhand P4). The Olight was a freebie when I ordered a couple of larger flashlights from them. I have had the i1R on my keys for ages, and it's been a good light. The i1R2 is brighter, longer lasting, and I no longer have to risk losing part of the light when I unscrew the head to recharge it; since the head no longer completely unscrews.

Gerber Ultralight LST, Leatherman Squirt P4, and Olight i1R2.

Thanks Tom!

Thank you woodwalker. I appreciate your comments as I have little knowledge about scout knives. I guessed the MOP would be unusual but wasn't sure.

Thank you sir!

My Katz fixed blade. I think they make great blades, I don't see too many of them

A real looker my fellow dog. A very simple elegance to it.

My same everyday carry. Not a different carry just an updated pic.

Thanks! I see you have good taste in what you carry. The model is 60 is a real solid piece. I bought one in 1994 and I still count on it if it may ever needed... all these years later and I am still getting good service out it.

Thank you, sir.

Some good iron you boys are loadin' out taday, nothin I wouldn't be proud carryin' myself .

Went with ole yeller, ole bones, ole leatherman, and ole 120 today.
Buck is surprising nice to carry, not bad weight wise, and the design of the sheath makes for unintrusive sitting down. All in all, a fine short sword if you ask me .

Floyd.. Never pictured you as a gun toting hombre.. Nice Smith!!!
John

John I used to be a member of the gun club here and shot weekly both bullseye and little chickens, pigs and goats. Don't shoot as much now but still carry just in case. My boys bought me this model 60 as a retirement gift. Hope I never need it. Thanks.

Just for once I thought I'd carry a Toothpick, a 2019 Northfield UN-X-LD #128119 Toothpick with 1095 & bone, made by GEC:

A Camillus Camp/Utility knife

Don't know the year of the blades but the bones are brand new thanks to Jeffin. Looks to me like something between 1973 and 2004 but not much closer than that. Great knives, underrated. Probably came with Delrin or something, but Jeffin fixed that.
