WD-40 is not an oil, it is a degreaser. It will work very well to clean the hinges of your knife. However, it dries really quickly. A better alternitive would be to use a light weight oil, like w...
I like a Swiss army knife for everyday use, the Handyman is perfect for me. For camp stuff I have the Mora 511, inexpensive and outstanding quality.

In reply to jedi18. ya it sure is!!

wow! the Wenger giant knife is HUGE! it must be hard to carry that around!
In reply to XxLeathermanWavexX. Mine too!
Why are one set of knives shown here described as "...unnoticeably carried in any pocket." Is that relevant for cub scouts?
when do we need the pocket knives
I thought the boys were only aloud to carry locking folding knifes in scouts. Is this wrong?
Leatherman wave is my favorite.
Dear gear guy, I am looking for a new multitool what are your tips about the brands of multitool
A very sturdy folding knife is the Cold Steel Spartan and With a 4.5" locking Blade it can handle just about job big or small.
the multitool bracelet also comes in black and you can also add a watch face

Spyderco Manix 2, best knife I have ever owned, had it for 3 year and still going strong.
they should have more leathermans they are such good tools to have
the leatherman freestyle is a wonderful tool, with just a locking blade and pliers it isn't bulky but is very handy!
Actually I have a Ka-bar and it is not awkward to carry, in fact it can double as an ax and is a great tool.
the Leatherman Tread is the coolest multitool i have ever seen
Well, these are all great knives, except for the Morakniv. (No tip on a knife? Really?)But they don't really compare to some of the classics. I'm not seeing any Case knives or Bucks, which are th...

In reply to Slim. The CASE built knife is a BSA licensed product.
In reply to Geezer Patrol. The Case knife is likely made in the USA.
Just remember, even though larger pocket knifes may seem cool, they can be difficult to carry around. A smaller reliable knife is easier to carry around in your pocket
