and I would much rather have a good lockback than an over rated switchblade.

Definitely stronger and don't have the reliability issues of an automatic but a little cool-factor never hurt anyone. The OTF would be a lot easier to put away with one hand too.

Why not have both?
No reason you can't have an extra knife to play around with.

Most of the time I do. A slip joint for lighter stuff and something bigger for the harder work.

If they were cheaply made they would probably fall apart. I agree very handy tool.

The pics are from a bunch of different times, hence the inconsistency. When the fingertips wear out I just cut then off.What knife is that? Looks like a very handy blade profile?

But the knife is a Chris Reeve Sebenza 21 small version with plain scales and a tanto blade shape. It's an excellent blade shape for a work knife. It's a largely misunderstood blade shape though and people will tell you they're only good for stabbing and all kinds of other bull
when in reality most people are just afraid to use their "good knives" for actual work so they only use them to cut god damn apples and the tanto admittedly isn't the best shape for that so they get mad and think it's useless.

Yikes! Looked at the price. +$400.00? I totally feel like the knife is worth that. Good tools cost good money and are a great investment. That said, I don't have specific uses for such a knife. If I did I would likely consider one in that price range.
BTW - I can count the number of HF tools in my shop on one hand and I have a shop that's so full of tools, almost all USA made, it borders on nuts. I LOVE quality tools.
