I wouldn't say it's a regret, but I really wanted a fixed blade so I bought a Buck 221 Silver Creek Fixed Blade Bait Knife. I like it but I hardly ever use it, except on fishing trips, when it lives in my tackle or kitchen boxes. In the interests of saving weight on hikes and camping, it very often gets put on the shelf, in favour of a LM, folder & saw combo.

Bad purchases? Surely you mean, things I have tested and deemed worthy of being gifts to those who seem to need education through their ownership.

I know what you mean Phaedrus. When my uncle passed, I inherited 30 or so guns. When my brother passed I inherited about 50 more. It kind of takes the fun out of gun shopping.
