Hiya all,

Just now and again you come across a cracking little tool that is just a must have, and this is one of them.

I have had enough of the entendable break off plastic things, these little jobbies are metal and are a folding knife too

Not much £ but really good quality :

Folds into a pocket knife, and with the swapable baldes always razor sharp, but with the blade supported yiou can really put some pressure into it, where those piggin snap off baldes...er " Snap"




Yes, I know, ..........................I'm easily excited

I can imagine they are a favourite with muggers too

Yes , Cracking little tool , I bought one of Snap On ,was about £12 but its got a nice wooden trim on it and comes in a leather belt pouch.

I carry it in the 90 just incase I have to cut and run.

Poor Lardy, There's no need to cut him, just run, he'll never keep up!

I have one of these but find that under pressure the blade tends to pop out. Happened several times now though not yet done any damage. I keep one on me now as they are great for opening bales of silage!

i was going to buy one but i,m to tight i,ll just borrow cidermans

What is the snap on item like? reliable? any pics of it?

Its identical to the one shown except it is clad with hard wood on the sides .
The pouch it comes in is strong and very handy.

You'll have to get in before Blunders Lardy

Available at the moment from Woolies for a fiver in their "workshop" range.

The best knife I have ever come across was my Army issued jack knife, I forgot to hand it in !. It has been on a lanyard made of para-cord since 1971. Kept sharp and oiled it is great for outdoors use, the lanyard means I can fasten to me to stop me loosing or it being nicked. My regimental belt used to make an exalant botle open , our regimental moto was twist to open!!.
