The reserve
The pocket knife
The knife someone carries for twenty years. Two of the best are made within an hour of here, in Golden and up in Oregon, and I can have most of them in hand the same week. Initials go at the base of the blade beside the maker's own mark; a date or a line goes on the handle scale. I keep it small. A good folder does not need help.

The one I buy for you
Starting points, the ones I would buy myself. Want a different one? Name it in the notes and I will source it.
Made up the road in Golden, and the one Spyderco fans ask for by name. The blade takes a dark mark beside the maker's own; a name on the flat, small.
The engraving
W. Hale
Dark on the blade, light on the G-10. The words and the face, on the material. The piece is the real thing.
