Here is a 4-line electrician's knife I picked up. Lots of wear, but strong blades and plenty of life left for EDC... ::nod::

Got this Old Camillus for EDC, a 4-liner, with a strong solid blade! ::groove:: It had some cracks in the bone scales, so I added an epoxy mix to fill it in.

Hey J.P. Good to see you. Thanks for the compliment. Yeah, staying cool down here has been a task. Not too bad this week, humidity finally down below 50%, but the previous two weeks were murder.
