This is the one. While browsing around, looking for an Eisenhower, I came across it.
I've been at the beach this week, and have been carrying an SAK. Most of slippies are carbon, and I generally don't take them swimming or fishing.
This knife caught my eye- it's a good size for me, at 5" closed and with a 4" blade, I'm guessing. Looks good, can be opened one handed.
It also has a bail. I like big bails- you can run a lanyard through them. You then put the end of the lanyard around your belt loop, and run the end with the knife back through, cinching it. When pulled on, the knife stays tightened.
It has aluminum handles and stainless blades. Anybody have experience with Queen stainless? Or Queen in General?
I've heard that Queens come dull out of the box. Anybody back this up/knock it down?
Thanks in advance.
