Nice Knife Yote. Looks well cared for also and you are to be commended for picking such a classic and not surrendering to the "Newer is ALWAYS better" trap. True enough. It doesn't have to be new and fancy to get the job done! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

It was my uncle's, my aunt gave it to me after he passed away.
I stopped carrying it after I lost it.
I was so upset when that happened.
I found it in my car seat after about a month.
I only carry it on special occasions now

I carried one of those Old Timer Trappers for years. I probably still have it some place.
Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

It's a great old classic. Still works for 99% of what I actually need a pocket knife for.

I've been carrying a SAK of some variant every day since about 1990. I generally use it at least 2-3x per day as well. I carry other as well, but there's always room for a SAK.
