Knives and multi tools.

[jsb 6]

Hi everyone. Looking for a recommendation for a small pocket knife or multi tool. 

 

Also recommendations for a fixed blade

I have an older leather man and it’s very useful indeed, the newer gerber miltos look good too

A lot would depend on your tool requirements. Leatherman makes an excellent product, IMHO and these are very handy. The plain old Victorinox Swiss Army Knife can't be overlooked either.

EDIT: This one if you're feeling flush...

Mora. Hold a decent edge and cheap enough that you won't cry when you lose it.

It all depends what you intend to use the knife for. I've got all sorts. The sharpest knife that I have ever come across is a Helle, like this,  https://goo.gl/images/c2gzXS   I've had Swiss army, Leatherman wave, ect all sorts. Don't forget it is illegal to have a blade of more than 3"or more than  that Including the handle if it is a lock knife in a public place without good reason. I remember some old boy got pulled up for a blown rearlight and plod immediately searched his glovebox and found a knife  that the old boy used as a picknick knife when he went out with his wife. He was arrested and done for having an offensive weapon in a public place. I now carry either a simple cheapo budget plastic handle jobby or a stainless British Army knife like this, 》》》 https://www.outdoorgb.com/p/whitby_genuine_british_army_knife_pk128/

Surprisingly the budget cheapo Chinese  knife has a very good stainless blade which holds a sharp edge.

I use these most of the time now . The little dime is an edc but because the suspension has a locking blade I only use it while I’m out with the dogs or fishing . They are not bad , maybe not quite leatherman quality but good enough for what I want and they are not that expensive .

 I like the leatherman warranty ,when ever ive broken one of mine just return it to the Whitby knife co ,and get a replacement within days!

Don't forget it is illegal to have a blade of more than 3"or more than  that Including the handle if it is a lock knife in a public place without good reason. The majority of these knives are outside of the legal boundary uncles you have good reason. I stopped caŕying  my wave because it was a locker. The local gun shop told me about one of their customers who was just having a quiet drink in a local pub when a fight broke out. Ha was nothing to do with it and by the time plod turned up those involved had left but plod searched everyone in the bar and found a small cartridge style locking knife on his bloke and did him for carrying in a public place. They then  revoked his shotgun cert because of it. bstds.  Be careful.
