And even though I saw these rugged men use their knifes hard and in some cases it was men with treamendous body strengt I never saw a broken knife.

Yeah, there's definitely something to be said for knowing the right way to use a knife. :thumbup: Cool story, NB.

While this is mostly true, I have seen many knives that look like this one.
Most likely intentionally broken to do a job that the owner needed done eg. cleaning a pipe etc.

My father carried a small Schrade pen knife, and a Schrade Sharpfinger for all of his camping/hunting/fishing tasks. His knife collection consisted of a lot of folders marked Pakistan , which weren't as bad as the ones nowadays.

Everybody else I know carried some type of jackknife, mostly made by Schrade or Imperial.
