How do you guys like the vic rucksack. Its my first sak, and does anyone have any info on it?

I have the Workchamp - the big brother to the Rucksack and it is a great knife. The main blade locks - and I have had no problems with the locking system at all.

It's a big knife - the 111 series are too big to pocket carry IMHO. I do not like belt pouches.

It is ,probably, best model for outdoor use.

Rucksack is an excellent choice for an outdoor folder.
Coupled with a good khukuri, machete, or hatchet, you will have all the tools you need for camping, etc.
It may not be tacticool, but it works.

I've used one for at least 15 years. They are popular all over the place: I've seen guides inside the Arctic Circle pull them out.

A few days ago I got a plain edge One-Hand Trekker. Very similar except a Phillips screwdriver instead of the corkscrew.

On our recent mini W&SS hike with Ray, Dave, and Sasha from the forums we had a few Swiss Army Knives and Sasha was interested in the OHT PE so I thought I would share with everyone here.

I couldn't agree more. I have loved my Rucksacks for almost 20 years. I've replaced mine with a Hunter and I'm still not sure I made the right move. I take from your post that you've already have a Ruck. If not, there are many models that are very similar. It is simply a matter of what's your flavor. corkscrew vs. phillips, liner lock vs. slide lock, etc. Treat it right and it will become a trusted friend and beloved companion.
