Usually two knives. I always carry the Stiff K.I.S.S.

Just did a google search, no result. What kind of knife is this?

[el_chupacabra]

Shoot, that's nothing. We used an abacus to count cards.

LUXURY! We used to live in a shoebox in the center of an expressway!

[yarddog]

Out of curiosity, I got out a dollr bill and measured it. It actually measures six and one eighth inches.

Right.

I had to get up at ten o'clock at night, half an hour before I went to bed, drink a cup of sulphuric acid, work twenty-nine hours a day down at the mill and pay the mill owner for permission to come to work, and when we got home, our mother and father would kill us and dance on our graves singing Halleluja.

What kind of knife is this?

Columbia River Knife & Tool makes them. They are the ones that make the little folding KISS knives that people use for money clips. They're widely available at any knife shop or webbsite (I usually get mine locally at an ACE hardware). Gun shops have them if they carry a line of knives. It's just a very simple straight knife with no hilt, handle material, etc. Just a plain flat piece of carbon steel that is ground into an extremely useful knife. Tanto or drop point and part serrated or plain in either style. The handle can be wrapped with nylon cord or left plain. I leave it plain since it makes an excellent small pry bar that way, the really neat thing ablout them is the sheath. An abs plastic that can be configured for any carry position you desire; up, down, or sideways. Only about $25.00.

Yeah, sounds like the way we grew up!

A .30 cal for emergencies, and a .22LR (preferably supressed) for putting things on the dinner table.

Aguilla ammunition makes a .22 RF round with a 60 gr lead bullet. Looks like a 22 short case with a full llength 223 (rn) bullet. Goes somewhat subsonic, and for accuracy needs a 1 in 9 twist barrel (available for the 10/22 but it takes a bit of looking). Really accurate with the right barrel, extreme penetration (shoots right throgh a redwood or cedar 4x4) and no supressor needed. they work semi auto actions as well.

[LibKill]

Thanks. Looks like a pretty good knife.

Here's their website. I found it after you gave me the maker's name.Columbia River Knife & Tool (Will open in window.)

Aguilla ammunition...extreme penetration (shoots right through a redwood or cedar 4x4) and no supressor needed.

Which brand is that? I know the neighbors would like something a lot quieter than stingers.

[Billthedrill]

Yeah. And the kids these days - you tell them this stuff and they don't believe you...

[GingisK]

"SAS Saw" ... hold up fairly well.

Whoo-hoo! Where do I get one?

[Newbomb Turk]

I prefer to carry my 45 caliber Beretta Couger instead.

[tacticalogic]

I prefer the Gerber Multi. I'd also add a multi-bit screwdriver w/10' of duct tape wrapped around the handle, and a small pair of Vice-Grips. Replace the emery paper with Silicon Carbide wet/dry, it'll last longer.

[Old Professer]

The condom is capable of holding 2 gallons

Maybe when I was younger....sigh

You just brightened up an otherwise drear evening - I'd laugh out loud but then I'd have to tell my wife why.

Oops.

Which brand is that?

Aguilla is the brand. They make a number of different types of 22 and pistol ammo. You can usually find someone on the Web or in Shotgun news selling it, or some gunstores.
