River Shortie. I had to order the bright yellow handled one, as the stores only had the black (why would anybody prefer black?) It took a lot to get over the boy thang of wanting a pointy knife. String lanyard coiled and rubberbanded to avoid entanglement. Lashed to vest with two plastic wire clamps. Great oyster blade. Spyderco Delica in the vest pocket for pointy back-up. Bro' is a C.G. rescue swimmer and was issued a very pretty Benchmade PBR (push button release) folder. It's very heavy, very pointy, and not as easily deployed with cold hands/gloves as my rig. But it does have that Westside Story action. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - All postings copyright the author and not to be reproduced outside PaddleWise without author's permission Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************
