I was just browsing that Montereybay website looking at those Slaybacks...wishing I didn't. So many different, very intriguing designs and pretty decent prices too. That's a beauty you've got right there!

Fiddleback Forge Hiking Buddy in 8670. Finally got around to sharpening it up this morning, so better give it a little use.

Re: What "Other" is in your pocket???
I was doing a little comparison this morning with 4 similar knives. They're all really nice considering the price. Heck I think they're great at any price. I still like the overall design of the Ferrum Forge Gent a little better but the MBK EZC 1.5 has all of them beat in terms of materials and flickiness (yes that's a word...in my mind). They're all really smooth and flip great but the EZC seems like it must use higher quality bearings. It has a stronger detent too. The machined clip is also a nice touch. Although,I like the small discreet clips on the Ferrum Forge knives too. The EZC has M390 blade steel vs S35VN (Gent), Nitro-V (Stinger), and D2 (Elementum). So I assume that's part of the reason for the higher price. All that said, there are features I like about all of these and you can't go wrong with any of them
Of all the things I've lost I miss my mind the most!

I think the Knipex Cobra Xs is a good companion to Victorinox Explorer.

Re: What "Other" is in your pocket???
Thanks! I like it, it opens wider than other pliers based MTs, and it is smaller and much lighter. I carry it on my bike rides/commutes. Just learned how to do one hand opening from this video: https://i.imgur.com/kkZiwEt.mp4https:// ... kZiwEt.mp4

Nice!
Sound like it's worth a try. I'll pick one up.
