FNuser, that knife has character and a soul. I'm sure it's unique and all your friends know it's yours.
I would compare it with a gun which carries the letters "FN", when you shoot it and you should miss, you never blame the gun...
by the way: "old", do you mean of age or long time ago?
Here there is a saying that you should learn to ride on an old bicycle... maybe in your part of the world the old bicycles sponsor the young drivers?

As much as I wish that were true it probably wouldn't apply to me anymore, unless some young hottie wanted to take ME for a ride. However no she was 18 and i was 20 and it was a long time ago. That guy's name was Ray Johnson I remember this cause its on the blade.

I carry too many but who cares:
Kershaw deer hunter
Buck 112
CRKT M21-02
The latter is my "do anything" knife & is never out of reach.
Slightly OT but I use the Lansky sharpening tool on all of them & find it does a good job.

First you have to have something to shave. My beard is soft as it was when I was a teenager. I use a safety razor and plain hot water. Or shave just as I get out of the shower...Nothing on my face except warm water...

Must be an old photo of you, or not you in the avatar. Im 45 years old and my beard is still tough as he!!. Seems like the grayer the hair gets, the tougher they get as well.

Nope...That's me...I have no idea why my facial hair is so soft, but it sure saves on blades. I only shave every two days whether I need it or not...

Apart from a few months due to exposure to radiation (Chernobyl fallout), I haven't shaved since 1978.
Haven't paid for a haircut since 1989.
What I want to know is where all the $ I should have saved went.
