Re: RIP Pacific Salt
Sorry you lost it, but it is a good reason (excuse) to get a new knife. I can honestly say a Pac Salt is the one knife I wouldn't want to be without, and would replace immediately if lost. I would prefer SE, but my PE is a razor. I can't justify getting another, even though I really want an SE version, all black.

Supposed to be one coming out this year based on the wharnie version.koenigsegg wrote: ↑Wed Sep 11, 2019 7:14 pmThat's no fun, just a thought but maybe a ARK neck knife would be a nice choice for a boat? I hope Sal makes a Swick in LC200N
Re: RIP Pacific Salt
Sorry to hear you lost one, I've been there before, lost my only combo edge delica kayak fishing. I don't like the idea of tethers on a boat or when diving. Last thing I want is to be wrapped around something. I use a non-locking carabiner clip attached to a short loop through the lanyard hole. When I want to set the knife down while fishing but not put it away I clip it to a bungee on the kayak.

Re: RIP Pacific Salt
Several catchermans many years ago, 2x pacific salts, countless other knives, probably 6 or 7 pairs of pliers and over 10 pairs of sunglasses and 3 phones. The ocean is a thief

Re: RIP Pacific Salt
Yep. I was an airborne paratrooper and we tethered any sensitive item to us so it wouldn't be lost on a jump. Big deal to lose a pair of $7000 nvg's

Re: RIP Pacific Salt
Arising from this thread, what retractable tether would be recommended?
