    Great gift I love kershaw.
    The laws that forbid the carrying of arms are laws of such a nature. They disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes.... Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man." - Thomas Jefferson (quoting 18th century criminologist Cesare Beccaria)"

          I have that Kershaw and two more in that fixed blade series plus the Folder just like it, 1030, 1032 etc. Have one of each of the whole series other then the Kershaw Fillet!

          The Kershaw folder was my first "Adult" knife I bought...almost 40 years ago!
          TURNING and turning in the widening gyre
          The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
          Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
          Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
          The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
          The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
          The best lack all conviction, while the worst
          Are full of passionate intensity.

              I got two sets of those back in the 80's doing some horse trading at a gun show. One stays in my trailer the other is with my extra camping gear. They are great and have stood up to the years without a problem.

                    That wooden handled Blade Trader is from the early 80's, way before KAI Cutlery and Kershaw got together. I was a Snap-on Tools dealer in Portland back then, and our branch manager and Pete Kershaw were neighbors. The Portland branch sold a lot of Kershaw before Kershaw went national with Snap-on and every other tool truck. I have that same same set and it has more miles on it than an old bus.

                      682beretta, I just went by what the case says and it says Kershaw Kai blade trader, the in law that gave it to me probably bought it new ill ask when I see them tomorrow.
                      The fix blade is from the mid 70's I bought it when I was on the USS Independence either the 74 or 76 cruise. And it says Kai on the blade?
