Barlow is a good choice for an inexpensive simple 2 bladed pocket knife. Blades stay sharp forever. Great bang for the buck. My simple everyday Barlow knife is 35 years old and cost 5 bucks back then.

Barlow is an iconic name and still a great knife. I seem to remember it being pretty standard gear for farm & ranch hands. Would happily carry one.

My normal pocketknife is a Buck. Quite durable. Usually only put it to light use. Worst thing it'd encounter is loss...or confiscation by those TSA idiots! Have learned how to guard against both.
