I like slip joints. I have some good quality factory slip joints and a custom Rick Menefee and sold a John Llyold to a member here last year. No way are they as convenient as a one hand operated folder clipped to a pocket. But sometimes I don't really need that fast opening Benchmade, ZT or Spyderco and the nostalgia of a nice "pocket knife" is very satisfying.

Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.
