I thought i would share a few photos of how my Huntsman looks after 15 years of use.

Here is a link to the original 10 year review

Thread '10 years with my Huntsman' https://www.bladeforums.com/threads/10-years-with-my-huntsman.1762194/

Im still very happy with how it performs. Its showing signs of wear and is has suffered an unfortunate breakage of the can opener. I do miss it as a screw driver. I've replaced the lanyard twice.
Anyways stay tuned I will provide a detailed review in 2030.

Wonderful post. Long-term reviews in the knife world are like precious gemstones.

No matter what new knife I buy, an SAK ends up back in my pocket. Looks like this one never left yours. I nearly wore out a Climber model once. Lost it long ago. My problem is that nowadays I have so many SAKs in rotation, they'll probably never look this worn and cool. Good problem to have.

I've had a couple close calls where I thought i lost this one but it turns up again when I think about what I fixed last.

I think my knife looks cool too. I like how my small blade has wear from being closed all the time. I hardly use it.

Great post Dan! :thumbsup:
I had a beloved Huntsman.
It wasn't a daily carry, but I did manage to tote it along on nearly every outdoor adventure that I went on for 26 years. I'd probably be carrying it today, (instead of the Fieldmaster that I replaced it with), if it hadn't been stolen.
Your Huntsman is loaded with character. A beautiful example of incredible durability and usefulness. I enjoyed seeing it and being reminded of my former companion.
I hope you and your treasured Huntsman are here in 2030 to celebrate 20 years together. I'll stay tuned. ;)
