Subject: [AIS] Personal Safety Knife for sailing<br>

<div id="AOLMsgPart_1_e0d36288-e640-4fdc-aead-27e4591f5937">
<div class="aolReplacedBody"><span style="color: rgb(0, 51, 51); font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;">
<div style="color: rgb(0, 51, 51); font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 10pt;">I found this knife last fall and thought it worth sharing as a personal sailing safety knife and whistle. </div>
<div style="color: rgb(0, 51, 51); font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 10pt;"><br>
</div>
<div style="color: rgb(0, 51, 51); font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 10pt;">It's a folder that can be opened with one had, and has a combo blade for cutting lines. The nice thing is that it has a whistle integrated into the handle, and a decent clip for a lanyard. It's thin and lightweight. Very well made for $15, and it's not a toy knife. </div>

</div>
<div style="color: rgb(0, 51, 51); font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 10pt;">I bought a couple extra to keep as spares for random crew. </div>
<div style="color: rgb(0, 51, 51); font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 10pt;"><br>
</div>
<div style="color: rgb(0, 51, 51); font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 10pt;">Some of the new "seatbelt cutter" tools are nice and noteworthy. But if you want a blade, this is worth looking into. </div>

<div><span style="color: rgb(0, 51, 51); font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 9pt;">Wells Fargo fraud unit just called to report unusual high activity on my credit card...so yes...sailing season is coming. </span></div>
