I have a Gerber small folding lockback, prolly 3'' drop point stainless, with black ALL plastic knurled 1 piece handle, no liners, and has 2 sorta deep finger grooves. I got it for free from someone, it seemed cheap it has grown on me as a great pocket knife. The things I like:
Light!
Just the right size and thickness
Fingergrooves (control)
durability
things I don't:
slow.
hard to open with one hand.
ugly
I was wondering if there are better knives you could reccomend since I may actually buy myself one
with those features. Also, could you rate the steel on the gerber? I love a good steel that gets REALLY sharp and stays sharp long. I have a lansky and like to shave hair Is this normal? What angle should I use? I'm on 20 right now. Should I get a super fine stone for my lansky? have fine now. Oh well I'll shut up now thanks.
