Re: knives and hiking

I've got a 3" tanto point Benchmade that's been run over a few times, thrown straight into a granite wall from about 4 feet away, and buried in wet sand, but all she needs is a few cotton swabs and a few drops of oil every month, and I'll be damned if she doesn't drop out smooth as butter like the day she was born. I really liked the Leatherman Juice for a while, until I realized only used the knife and scissors. So I eliminated the scissors, and now I just have the blade. If you get one, very good blade, you can use it for nearly anything you might need a multi-tool for. Prying, tightening screws, wedging and chiseling can all be done with a high-strength, thicker blade. In my opinion, Benchmades just have the best mechanism around, and their handles are light and fit my hnd well.
