Inexpensive Sailing KnivesBy Mike FahleAbout two months ago I picked up a $10 plastic handled pocket knife w/ stainless steel, serrated blade which is excellent. I got it at an equipment rental place from a bucket on the counter. Since then I have found them at Lowes and Builders Square which are two huge low cost home improvement chain stores. If I had purchased this knife first, I never would have looked for another. It cuts as well as the Gerber, is cheap enough not to be upset if I lose it, is rust free, and more convenient than the Gerber. So for anyone who has not already found a knife for sailing, I recommend looking for one of these "cheap" knives. They will do the job for less. |
