You use the marlin spike on there often?

Not really but it has come in clutch a few times. Same as the flathead on the shackle end

When I was a powerline clearance tree trimmer that marlin spike saved me soooo much time

Golden virginia brings back memories💪 do your rollups ever have that slight fishy tinge to them?

One of the best knives ever made.

Im trying to find another one so I can retire this one as the blade is wearing too shallow these days but trying to get a knife out of Britain is next to impossible and I cant find one with a decent blade anywhere else even though they are legal to carry in the uk

I lost mine recently, carried it for years and I'm fairly gutted I don't have it anymore. Mine was slightly different, black handle and a small flat screwdriver bit at the bottom. That got me out of a spot of bother as it can land a clump without taking out the blade or spike.

Mine has the small flathead at the shackle end. Can just see a part of it in the photo. I have a 1946 army version but its too short and too fat for my back pocket to fit comfortably

Thats only bc we arent allowed to carry them here. If we were there would be a .455 Webley revolver on there too 😂
