...the little chinese POS knife that I picked up in Mexico years ago? It was really my first one handed opener, but holding a Sebenza and the holding the chinese junk makes me want to find the nearest canyon!

...hmmm...not a bad idea!
 
You can always go to your local airport and slip them in peoples pockets before the metal detector.

It reminds me of an old George Carlin skit on How to get rid of conterfit money. Put it in the collection plate at church :D

I'd love to see the expression on someones face when they get stopped for a knife they've never seen...

It would be worth the couple of bucks it costs for a POS. :)

When I was young, my friends and I used to go to the local drug store and take those small plastic security strips off of packs of batteries and place them on people in the store. As soon as they wen't threw the front door the alarms would go off and they would have to come back in to be searched. :D

I know I know, but we were all young once :)

Try this. Take the blade off and rough it up with some coarse sandpaper. Divide the knife into 4 or 6 sections with a marker. Then take all your favorite oils/rust preventative productucs and rub them onto their quadrant and rub them back off. (Better draw yourself a diagram so you know what you put where.) Now that you have a very thin coating on various parts of the knife make yourself a strong solution of salt water. (Works best if you use some sort of pure water. Even better with distilled water.) Submerge the knife in the salt-water solution over night. Go back in the morning and see which products work best at preventing rust.

I did this with a beat-blasted ATS 34 blade and it was fun.
 
Thats a good Ideal Fulloflead. May I ask what product stood up the best in your testing and which 4 you tested?? Thanks:)

I did 6. Let's see...
I used RemOil, WhiteLightning, no protection (as a control), Hoppes Gun Oil, and Birchwood Casey Sheath and some other thing I can't remember.

RemOil won hands down!
White Lightning came in second and did pretty well, but I don't like White Lightning except for on lockbacks and multi-tools.

Hoppes Gun Oil was like using nothing at all.

I just started using BreakFree on my guns so I'm going to do it again soon (same blade) with BreakFree on one side and RemOil on the other.
 
and every so often take it out and hold it in one hand and hold you're favorite blade in the other. Compare and contrast. This way you'll never take the good things in your life for granted. How can you measure the good without the bad?

how about mounting it to a plack, painting it gold and giving to the worse knife of the year? sort of like blade magazine giving yearly awards out, except on more of a negavite note!

when I was in the AF we had a solid brass club called the "brass shaft" award we gave it out to the person who made the worse mistake (we worked on survival equipment, parachutes, ect.) who in turn had the humiliation of owning it until someone did something worse!!
