I lent one of my No5's to a mate to try as a edc keychain knife lastweek and yesterday he came round to see me and he'd nicked himself slightly with it.
I asked how and he said he forgot ''Meaning'' something he shouldn't of been cutting no doubt.
Has anyone tried somehow to make a quick fix to turn this into a jerry rig short term lock knife.
Cos I've tried to use a piece of Kydex to slide down over the blade basically a reverse collar ring and ducted taped it on the handle before and it sort of worked.
And yes I know that they aren't meant to lock or be used for any heavy job that would require it, let alone there are better options but I'd thought of putting 1 of these into a survival kit decades ago thats when I tried the Kydex collar idea out.
Any idea's If you can make sense of all the above.
Cheers
