Re: [Cal_Boats] sailing knives

That Gerber that was recommended looked nice. I received the Myerchin listed in the link below as a gift. I've used it to cut a wrapped line off a prop and shaft on another persons boat. I've also used it to cut a palm tree branch that was wrapped around my prop shaft. In both cases, this knife cut thru this stuff like butter (something I really appreciated since I was free diving). Whatever you get, go with a serrated blade and blunt tip. http://www.maritimeinstitute.com/ShipsStore/Knives/Myerchin/MyerchinKnives.html#A508 Dave 80 Cal 35 Runnin Late Coyote Pt, SF Bay (Currently on the 'hard' at Svendsen's in Alameda for some bottom paint) Sick sense of humor?
