Swiss Army Soldier's Knife

Do those rubber inserts really help much with the grip on the military soldier version?

The entire handle is textured differently and more "grippy" than the standard SAKs, another one of the reasons I really like it.

I started on a cross cut bearing block to see how it does, see if it maybe doesn't let the spindle burn in too deep so quickly. I wanted to see how big in diameter I could make using only my SAK and RC-4 I have to say that if I wasn't impressed with the saw on this little knife already I sure would be now. I wanted as large of one as I could easily make in the woods and this is a black walnut limb about 3 inches in diameter bark and all. The I used the RC-4 to start whittling it into shape and start the divot...then it started getting dark on me.
