There are "resorts" at each end of it.

Just seeing the tree of shame is worth it.

I wear my SS4 zip tied to my Alpinstars pack. Actually the leatherface sheath is zip tied the knife is free to leave.

I often wear my Swarden around my neck on a ball chain. I don't like wearing a clipped folder on the bike because I always feel I am going to lose it.
I bought a couple other small fixed blades that may get belt and neck time this summer. A CR Inyoni ,a Spyderco Mule and a new Strider I just got today.

My bike is a Honda 919 and a Kawi KFX450 quad.

I am having a really nice custom leather sheath made by Rainwalker for my DFLE.
Here is a photo of the sheath we used as inspiration but mine is going to have a frog so I can take the knife and sheath off the belt and a couple Drings for shoulder straps like DMelones.

I rode through town with my enfield rifle over my shoulder during hunting season.
I also had a katana hooked to my pack but that was just to take it home from the post office. There is no CCW in Canada but you can carry any size fixed blade and my home town is like the wild west but with real indians. Our murder rate is so high we can't calculate it. To many murders for to small a population. The place in Canada with the highest murder rate (our provinces capital Regina)has 7 times as many people and had less murders. You can drive as fast as you want 29 days a month because the police only do traffic one day a month. I kind of like it.
I have had my 919 since 02 and have never got a ticket.

Wow. This place sounds kinda of nice... No sharks lurking to bust you when you are riding fast <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> thats a plus. I bet the scenery is lovely up there too, huh man.

I usually carry a Leatherman ( Wave or Surge ) in a pocket.

This is my Suzuki SV1000.
The location is Tropea, Calabria, Italy.

Thank you. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />
The laws here allows to carry a knife just if there is a good reason. So, riding a motorbike is easy to find a relation between the leatherman and the bike. Carrying a neck knife here will probably be punished. Different ( fixed ) and larger knives can be used only hunting , in the wilderness or country side.

In Italy auto knives are legal though right?
I love the SV1000 and SV650. The 1000 was under rated here in North America though.Europe seems to have cooler bikes as well. All the US seems to like is sport bikes and cruisers. In Canada we are starting to get more european bikes like the 125cc Hinda RR sport bike and the Aprilla Vtwin supermoto as well as the trailies. I have always liked the Streetfighters. There are a lot more powerful ones than my 919 now but when I picked it up in 02 it was top notch and it is still pretty decent. My local dealer sold more this year than all the years previous. The next version of it is coming out in 09 and has a great CBR1000RR engine but is ugly as hell.

In the US the best way to get into motorbikes would be a second hand metric cruiser like a Kawi Vulcan. I would love to make oen into a chopper and it would be cheap and have a reliable jap engine.
