I need a budget (not expensive) knife sharpener that is small and portable (for EDC).

I am torn between several models that I have seen on EDC/BOB videos. So, I thought to forget those videos and ask on ETS.

Thanks

Some of you have responded to my question about carrying a knife in California. So now I'm looking for a folder with a 3" blade. It's sad that I am being compelled to buy a new knife.

So what do you recommend? I am hoping to spend under $100. The top runners for me right now are the Spyderco Delica, Spyderco Mini-Persian, and the Benchmade Swale. I think the Mini-Persian may look a little too scary, and I'm worry that its big tip might break off. I like the Swale, but it's a bit on the thick side, and I need to carry concealed because of the law. I'd look at the smaller Griptilian if it is 3", but I already have two big Griptilians...

Thanks!

Was thinking recently about the hurricane season starting, and in addition to the paper copies of my documents, I want to EDC a flash drive, 16GB. I have about 8GB of pics from digital sources, and scanned copies of photos from way back. I want to EDC a sturdy flash drive, and wondered if anyone does this already, and what make it is. I am ROUGH on my EDC stuff, but figure I'll put a ranger band around it to help keep it protected from the keys and such. Any help would be great. I'm also planning on putting a digital copy of Blasts Emergency binder on there as well, again as a backup to the printed version. Thanks in advance for any advice.

I read this week that a lawn light charger actually charges a aa battery as its power source. ( the $3 size) Am investigating...

Has anyone seen anything about this device?
