Sorry if there's a thread already.
Theses are great and historical.  I'll try to do pics later.  :salute:

Still carry mine on occasion.
Folderbeholder was kind enough to send them my way a good few years ago and I'm still as thankful as the day I got them.

   My old Granny had a Christy knife that she kept on her keychain.  She told me about Mr. Christy and how he invented it.  I thought at the time that she maybe knew him or something.  I was carrying a Kutmaster jack knife at the time along with a lucky buckeye, a change purse, and a hanky in case I wound up with a bloody nose at school.  I never saw another Christy before or after.  Best wishes.  G

I mentioned it in another thread somewhere else that these were quite popular at my first fire department, so, wanted to be on of the cool kids, I bought and carried one for about a year. While I can appreciate the utility I never found out why they were so popular - they just didn't do it for me. I attached my SAK Classic to the little ball chain and used it more than I ever did the Christy Knife. Mine has long been lost to history (or my ex-wife).
