As do I. The problem of course is space. Handles of any sort take up too much room in the container. I needed something to fit diagonally in a BCB-type container (5" L) that would still be large enough to be useful, while still leaving room for the mess-load of other stuff I cram in there. The choice was a small folder or a small fixed blade that could be wrapped with paracord. I chose the latter. It takes about 30 seconds to wrap a serviceable handle from paracord, and that is something I always have with me.

For a long time I didn't carry any spare blade in my wilderness PSK. I figured that my hunting knives would serve for any task, and they will--but only if I have them. This fall I will be carrying my new Becker Crewman along with a Buck PBS Crosslock and a Leatherman Juice. And my backup to my backup will be riding along in the PSK. <img src="/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />
