Great pattern from Schrade
Mine is not a Ducks Unlimited with a cool blade etch. Just a regular 96OT. The handle tools, scribe and tweezers are real-deal tools, not SAK style grooming accesories.
I have had mine in my pocket with my others since 11:00 this morning. Duncan, our 9 mo. Old German Shepherd Dog, had a half inflated tick on the back of his neck. Right between his flat collar and the flea and tick collar.
A touch of a smoldering matchstick on it's butt, and a little twisting pull with the Schrade tweezers, and out it came.
Regrefully, I failed to get a photo of the filthy bloodsucker.
I have a very distinct disdain for ticks. Nice job on removing it from Duncan. Dogs deserve nothing but the very best.
You are absolutely correct; the scribe and tweezer are the real McCoy; excellent for removing splinters.
The pre-2004 US made 96OT's are not easy to find these days, the ones on the bay demand proud prices. Yours looks real nice. The old Schrade brown Delrin is attractive.
