Most boat yard stores have some realy nice small serrated edje knifes , around 5.00 , swiss made. VERY SHARP ans small. I usualy pick two up at a time , and keed the second as a spare. I uses an old balistic nylon sheath with a plastic insert , that happens to fit. Keep it on the left shoulder strap using tie wraps. Others keep it on the waist , forearm , even on ligts. Most of all , Make sure you can get to it with bith hand. At 09:40 AM 2/8/1999 -0400, you wrote: >My primary knife is a cheap steak knife with the tip cut off to make >a flat blade.
