i wonder how many of us still have their very first pocketknife..... i do !!
about ten years ago i sold 90% of my collection and only kept the emotional pieces and specials and this is one of them !
i got this knife from my father when i was 10 years old !
he told me to be careful with it and never use it as a weapon....ofcourse i cut myself wihin a day and my mum went crazy and daddy only looked at me and shook his head..... i loved that man
i know you all call this a sodbuster but the original german name is hippekniep.... in holland ( the Netherlands) where i come from we call this "boerenmes" which means farmersknife
this is an Original richard abraham herder made in solingen and its still sharp and the spring is 100% ok
german "gründlichkeit"... i would say !!
