Going crazy over this Ranger...
on: July 05, 2010, 08:26:58 PM
I am starting to find myself more and more drawn to the Wenger Mike Horn Ranger... I may not be able to control myself much longer. :P
But that's quite a bit of money... so I wanted to ask if anyone here has used it? Anybody with opinions? (or owners wanting to get rid of theirs? ;) )

simply too wide to be practical IMHO, and i couldnt believe the second blade didn't have a lock  :think:

I hope to get one, but for "collection" reasons only. The one I handled at the SHOT show was much to fat for practical carry, like Shane says. :-\

Replace the metal saw file with the long wood saw replace the OH plain blade with a non=OH plain blade, it would be perfect :tu:
