More Pocket Knife Talk

Hopefully, the knife selection dilemma will be resolved soon. But if you think this is a tortured decision, wait until I need to select appropriate pellet guns and slingshots!

KA-BAR's Hobo

Coco's reader CapturedShadow suggested Kabar and I do like the looks of the green handled Hobo, but it is made in China. Also, I want a complete line of pocket knives and KA-BAR doesn't sell anything with a screwdriver or leather awl. The only classic pocket knives are $350 re-issue collectibles.

Klein

Coco's friend Dean pointed us to Klein Tools, the makers of electrician tools. Klein is an unexpected vendor, but that is a classically handsome pocket knife! Now that I have seen the Hobo, I am pretty sure Coco's needs to sell a knife with spoon and can opener.
Finally, the dark horse contender is Opinel. Made in France since the 1890's, Opinel still sells a variety of carbon steel pocket knives rather than the ubiquitous stainless steel blades. And wait until you see the corkscrew knife!

Soon this pressing matter will be resolved and friends of Coco's will be able to buy from a carefully curated selection of fine pocket knives.
