Interesting option - they only say 2" long closed on the site, but how thick and wide is it? VERY, VERY, thin... You could probably shove it under your fingernail... Maybe a LITTLE thicker than the BLADE on a Swiss Army Knife...

Well, James, you made me do it. I just ordered one from A.G. Russell. (Like I need any motivation to buy a knife) <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Why not? I don't think I have ever seen a kit packed so tight that a scalpel blade would not fit. I would rather have a real knife, and do 99% of the time, but Mr. Murphy is alive and well.
Plus, for surgery, there is nothing better. <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

I'm not sure of the question here. Scalpel blades are very different from razor blades. I would not use a razor blade to remove damaged tissue from a wound, nor would I cut parachute cord with a scalpel blade. Scalpel blades are honed to an edge and razor blades (utility blades) are ground to an edge. I carry both. I carry scalpels, sutures, forcepts, etc. in my surgical kit, and Razor (utility blades) with my light weight kit. Both for different purposes.

James,
I received theUltimate Pen Knife the other day. You weren't lying - it is tiny. But it does fit in my PSK, and it's very sharp and well-made, so it's a keeper. Thanks for the suggestion!

You are very welcome. Be sure and try it out and give us a report... I have been meaning to try making some fuzz-sticks with mine, but have not had time... <img src="/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />
