Every guy in my high school had one. They were never used in fights. Not once.

This is mine.
Just 3 inches long and it does everything I need. A few swipes on the Rada sharpener and it's good.

Here's what they didn't tell you...With those plastic handles, that knife weighs no more than a two blade pocketknife. And with those big pins, there is no blade wobble, even cutting through deer ribs.

Way back when I used to do a bit of firearms dealing, I got flyers from the wholesalers quite a bit (I used Glen Zanders in Illinois, Sports South in Shreveport and Davidson's when they used to be in Arizona). In the flyers are guns, but also all kinds of hunting stuff and optics.
When these were introduced, Buck gave the distributors a sweetheart deal, trying to lowball Leatherman...I bought and gave away a dozen of these (and I still have a couple)...

How well do they hold up over time?

Mine are still good. My son keeps one in his drum hardware bag and still uses it quite a bit.
