Guest cardan Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 Gerber Kiowa... I bought this for like $8 in the Czech Republic a few years ago cuz it looked so sweet but ended up having to leave it behind when I left... I bought it online when I got back home. It feels great to hold. Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/62813-knives/page/2/#findComment-1492011 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get one of those small swiss army knives w/ scissors, file and a knife on it. Always useful.

I got a leatherman skeletool as a gift a couple years ago - it's held up extremely well, from working on my jeep, offroading, boating (in saltwater), fishing, taking apart my electronics, opening boxes... etc etc. And they're not that expensive. And they look kinda badass. Leatherman, Spyderco, both great. Gerber has been complete shit for the past few years, every gerber knife I've ever owned has broken or corroded away. For the money you pay for a gerber you could buy 4-5 chinese knockoffs and get the same results.

Guest fiznuthian Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 found another excellent multi-tool, a nice alternative to leatherman. they've sold me on their compound leverage mechanism, which amplifies the grip and cutting power. should really take the strain out of crimping and cutting wires.

Guest sine Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 Ive collected knives over the years since I used to work on a farm and a folding knife was always handy. My favourites are a small fixed blade survival knife with a screw off cap on the handle for ,I dunno-windproof matches,fishing line,that sort of thing.Also I have a lovely Bear claw made by CRKT,it was one of those things that I saw and had to have because its so beautiful. Also a huge fan of CRKT tanto blades with no real tang/handle just a piece of heavy duty cord wrapped around it. Leatherman/Gerber are lovely multi tools but I stick with my old dependable Rolson.Doesnt cost as much if you lose it. A custom bike builder once gave me a scarab on a silver chain which looked a bit like a steel beetle but on closer inspection was a plier/blade/file combo.It was confiscated by W******* Police Force years ago and destroyed.

As an added bonus, a knife is also an excellent form of defense and protection. It's usefullness and utility is unmatched by just about anything else you could possibly carry in your pocket.
