And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Actually you can. Just ordered one and sent it back. Blade off center with a wire down its length from being missharpened at the factory. Even the pivot was gritty when opening and closing. Grinder marks on the handle. Sadly, my last Case. No need to purchase junk when there's so much else out there...
Mine was supposedly made in the USA, and the packaging looked legit. My favorite pocket knife of all time is my Case Copperhead, purchased in 1989 and carried every day for over 25 years. Still walks and talks with incredibly smooth action. Those were the days, I guess.
All three of mine are Schlieper Eye brand. Two black wood handles (one carried daily for 15 years in the oil field), one yellow synthetic, and all Solingen steel.
I got mine at LL Bean when I was 10. 1970. Still have it, it’s still a good knife and you can still see the plow on the side of the blade. Toughest simple knife ever made.
Can't go wrong with a 'buster.
ReplyDeleteSo simple even a communist liberal could use it.
(no guarantee the idiot wouldn't cut it's own dik off)
Still carrying the sodbuster i bought in1974.
