First folder and stone

[Quixoticgeek]

Am seriously thinking of getting a Svord Peasant Knife As a knife to carry when hiking/travelling, when carrying my Mora Clipper would just be too much hassle (legal wise that is). I particularly like the fact it can be opened easily with one hand, is short enough, and through the use of the lever on the blade, isn't likely to shut on my fingers during use.

Before I part with the beer tokens, are there any other similar knives I am over looking?

I would also like a compact sharpening stone to carry with it, so far the DC3 is coming out at the top of the list, again, can anyone suggest an alternative I may have over looked.

Thanks

J

I've heard a lot of good stuff about the svord, well made, decent steel, and also not so precious that it'd be a big blow if you lost/damaged it. Another plus is that they're very easily modded, and there's plenty of threads on here about that if you wanted also. Can't really say about what stones other than the DC3 seems like a good option.

Love my Svord (wooden handle and modded to make the blade sub 3" and the handle less pointy)
