There ya go, into "collecting"...Cool looking knives. For function? Gimme a stockman.

Vash, you said you wash the knife daily? If so, open each blade partially, sort of like the stockman pic I posted. Then place a tiny drop of oil between the blade pivot and the backspring...just a bit of maintenance tip for ya. I do this after sharpening.

I have a Mauser knife that looks like a Swiss Army knife and I used it every day during Desert Storm and it served me well. I'll hand it down to my son some day...

That's what it's about! :) I still have "conversations" with my dad. They often begin when I hold one of his old tools.

Here are 2 of mine....
The white one I took away from my former BIL in the 80s when he was drinking & acting up.. Forget where I got the other...

I've got two old ones that I'll take pix of later. One is an old scout style, cutting blade, can opener,screw driver and awl. The other is a 9 inch fixed blade camping blade. Both are old and excellent.
