I was inspired by all the peanut talk, about how most of us carry more knife than we need, so I set out to get something like a peanut, butterbean, tiny toothpick, or the like. There's a local smoke shop that carries Boker slippies in addition to misc. cheap junk. So I asked to see this little pen knife (8288). Delrin, I think, reddish-brown, kind of a pebble texture. Not sure if it's carbon or stainless (stainless, I suspect). Strong springs, crisp half stops. Good fit and finish. Under $30 out the door. I can't promise this will be the only knife I'll carry for the next year but I am going to try to use it before I reach for my Vic Camper. I have a feeling it will serve me well. I wonder if my trapper will be jealous.
