Appreciation of 111mm [badge request]
on: August 17, 2019, 11:34:04 AM
Hi, all.

I was reading cptmike's thread about OHT being discontinued the other day, it saddens me a little since the One hand trekker is one of my favorite in 111mm family. 

It is such a versatile knife/tool, and it almost felt like an end to an era to me.  I can't help but go back to my drawer to pull out some 111mm to play with.  Almost everytime I went outdoor, there was a 111mm coming along with me, and it sure did felt like a walk down memory lane to me.

Do you guys have a favorite model within the 111mm family?


Here are some of my 111mm collection:

GAK
Equestrian
Skipper
Helmsman
Soldier Knife
OHT Master Road Tour

(Right, from the top)
Workchamp XL
Outrider
Cowboy
OH Trekker NS black oxide
Rescue Tool
OH Trekker NS Camo

I too love the 111mm, especially the one hand Trekker.  What I like most about the Trekker is that it essentially is a slip-joint with additional safety of a liner-lock, making it a really safe knife to use(in case the liner-lock fail, you could still continue to use it as a slip joint).

Thanks for watching!  This "reverse Spyder flick" does work rather well on this knife. :D

Wait, WHAT?!
The One-Hand Trekker is being discontinued?

Blast! I just got one (thanks Spartan19) a few months ago. It's a good solid knife. Do I have to fear breaking another discontinued model now?

Screw it. I'm gonna go get it and find something to work on
