I'm not big on blades, but I have a respect for them. Ka-Bars are pretty much my favorite as far as knives go, and I've got a short straight blade sitting here with a very dark brown leather hilt (not sure how it got so dark, probably from it being in my luggage when I flew back from Oregon to my old home in Florida) though I don't use it much, as I don't need the knife for anything that my little Gerber can't do, and I like keeping it in as near perfect condition as possible. When I get some more money I'm gonna buy a full size part-serrated Next Generation model and that'll free me up to use the little one for general purpose. This is not to say that I am a knife douche or anything, I just don't want to destroy or damage a knife if I don't have to, especially if it's the only one I have. If I've got another one though.....
