I do prefer rescue cutters

The blade pictured was not up to the task, though.
Was very happy that I had a proper serrated edge steel knife too.
Not all stuff is cave line.

Pardon my lazy cut and paste from another thread:
Show me your Nice Knife! Vintage BFKs welcome
From the top down.
That's a ruler :)

1. White Stag. My first knife from 1973 bought it used along with a full set of diving gear.

2. AMF Voit. Bought it used for $5 from a coworker 1978.

3. Dacor bought it while instructing for a shop that sold them in the '80ies when less was supposed to be more.

4. Ocean Master Beta titanium. Found it stuck in a reef in Florida. I needed a sheath for it so I searched the web. Found out this is an expensive item, the advertisement at the time mentioned the sheath and had this to say, "You won't lose this knife." .....too funny. Anyway, my first DIY job with a sewing awl produced the web belt sheath.

5. Chinese knockoff of a cool TUSA knife that was sold in the '80ies. Came as a gift with another item I bought on Flea Bay.

Have a squeeze lock on my computer,


And a SS pruning shear that mounts on my crotch strap.
Can reach it with both hands,
Very handy for cutting off snagged fishing lures.
