So, my wife’s sister has a bit of a fear of knives. Somewhere between “healthy respect for,” and a full on phobia. Normally, if she’s not surprised with it, she can keep it under control. Not being a jerk, I try to behave and not freak her out. There have been a few times that I haven’t been paying attention, pulled out my pocket knife, snapped it open to open something, and made her jump.
I was doing pretty well this Christmas. In part because of the the new Spyderco Manix 2 that my dad gave me this year. One of the benefits of the ball bearing lock used in that knife is that you can open in a lot quieter than you can something like my Endura that is under spring tension. I don’t think I made her jump once!
Then I opened a present to my from her father… a Woodsman’s Pal.
I opened it up and heard her exclaim “ahhh! Keep that over there!”
oops.
Ohh, that looks so sexy. I want a review of that, either here or at Blue Collar Prepping. But I want you to put it through its paces and review it!
Gorgeous blade!
