knives have been gifted to me over the years, "nice" ones and "junk" I have found knives. I can never seem to keep one for more than a few days so when i buy one, I dont spend much money. I bought a knife at a mega mart a few years back that was marked down 80% its a Remington Sportsman with a mossy oak pattern grip. There is nothing special about this knife except that to this day, its is still as sharp as a razor. I take it to work, to the farm, hunting and fishing. I use it to peel fruit when i have nothing else available,i shave kindling for fires, and just about everything in between. I dont carry it everyday, because sometimes I forget, but its a good knife, Im going to try a hold on to it for a while. The fact that I still have it, makes it a little special to me.
