I see you have a Cold Steel "Spike" there. Had one for years. It was my constant companion while traveling in Italy about eight years ago. Had it hanging from my neck under my shirt. They come scary sharp. They do a nice job putting a zero grind on them at Cold Steel. Also like your Gerber commando dagger.

I generally wear it when I'm in one of my boats,as it's handy for dealing with schitt you don't want,on a longline. Like 'neckers pretty good on the average and have a herd...............

The FinnWolf(trifecta furthest left),is of less belly and of more flexibility than the 'Roach,both attributes aid in the seperation of meat from bone. Profile is superior too...............

I gave them to my deer skinner this year, after he raved about the Roach Belly boning out our deer. I am looking at the boxes of two new Roach Belly's on my desk now. Life is good.
