Yep, gotta love them $9.00 deals! <img src="/images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />

My folding K-Bar cost me about the same. Good knife, used it to dress a deer out last fall.

If I needed anymore knives, I would likely buy one of them Moras. Heck, I may go ahead and get one when I get home anyways. I was eyeballing them pretty hard on SMKW before I left to come here.

In contrast, I will happily spend $1,300 on a new Browning A-bolt stainless with Leupold Vari-X II scope on top without even shopping around, and I don't consider that a collector's item, but a utility purchase. Something to be said about finding the right combination that works for you, and then sticking to it I guess.

Next time I kill one of them fat pig deer, I need to bring one of those fancy cheese knives so I don't have to stop every couple minutes and strip the tallow off the blade, geez!!!
