Kershaw SpeedSafe. 1670GBBLKST Ken Onion design.
Wicked fast deployment. I broke the tip off, my bad, I know better but needed to pry something and NOW, so, I re-ground the tip to a mini-tanto, and by mini I mean about 1/4". The only problem I have with the knife is the "anti-skid" tape on the body of the knife, it's chewing up my pants pocket. I thought the glass-breaker point on the end would play heck with the pocket, but apparently not so much!
What is my joy if all hands, even the unclean, can reach into it? What is my wisdom, if even the fools can dictate to me? What is my freedom, if all creatures, even the botched and impotent, are my masters? What is my life, if I am but to bow, to agree and to obey?
