All I Want For Christmas Is A Deadly Weapon

For the last decade or so I've been carrying a Buck model 186c folding pocket knife. It is a very good knife and I use the heck out of it - and it shows. The blade is both shorter and narrower than it used to be, due to hard use and many, many sharpings. Every once in a while I hit up eBay to see if there is one for sale.

I looked today. Currently, there are TWO for sale, brand-spanking-NEW. So my Darling Wife, knowing me as well as anyone, told me to send my knife in to Buck, who will replace the blade for $10. . . but to actually do it, unlike last year, when I just called Buck about it. It'll be a Christmas present from the children. Alrighty then.
