jwall,
I am familiar with that feeling.
Must also note that Victoronix Camper Model Swiss Army knives, which feature an easily sharpened stainless steel, are usually a little (but not a lot) more than $20 these days. But I have picked up several for less than that used at gun shows, and for far less than that from a guy who sells knives confiscated by TSA. 10 bucks is about average.
