    That blade is one of the reasons I wanted one. Mine is still sharp too. Still shaves the hair off my arm effortlessly.

    Ontario 8861, super we’ll built knife that holds an edge. I’ve had mine for over a year and it still sits dead center and still is very sharp. Great $30 knife.

    I have many Spydercos in my rotation. They are probably my favorite production brand knife company. Nothing cuts like a Spyderco...

    Since my last post on this thread, I added a Benchmade Mini Barrage and Benchmade Casbah to go with the Kershaw.
    Love them both.

    CRKT M-16. I've had a few of them since I was 16, and I'm hard on them. The composite scales are sturdy enough to bust up rust, the blade is easy enough to sharpen when I use it for a paint scraper or screwdriver too much, and if I drop it overboard (again) it's not so expensive that I cry. I feel naked without it.

    Oh. I’m going elk hunting in a few days.

    sharpened my Bugout last night and dropped it in my pocket. It is so sharp!

    i think I’ll appreciate a light ass folder while hunting.

    I just read through this ongoing thread. Times and styles change but quality doesn't.

    I have been daily carrying one of these Kershaw's for 35 years.

    I have some good folding knives.

    but! I can’t get past just how good a Swiss Army Knife is. The one I carry is the Farmer. I just sharpened it tonight and it is so damn sharp. It feels like a straight razor. Zero fanfare. Boring and unassuming. I could open it in a church library and nobody would care. I’m popping open beers and turning screws. I cleaned quail with it. Fantastic tool for $40!
    I highly recommend one, one day get one.

    Can you tell us a bit more about these? Are they well used/sharpened, or is that the stock blade profile?
