1.1oz, $11, decent steel, hard to lose. Bought a few for work stations too. Will make a sheath out of empty Hydrogen peroxide bottle.Jul 19, 2021 at 4:55 pm #3722433That’s not bad. Looking forward to your sheath.

Jul 19, 2021 at 5:44 pm #3722443It posted fine. Already threw one in the cart.
Jul 19, 2021 at 5:45 pm #3722444I’ve got a couple of those skeletonized Buck Paklite knifes and they’re not wrong – far lighter than more hunting knives. And more than enough for a caribou or bear (but rather small for Bowhead).
But a Little Vicky is half the price, half the weight and IME everyone reaches for it before the Buck Paklite knives.
As a UL, semi-survival knife with which one might carve wood or carefully baton wood, the Paklite knife is much more substantial than the Little Vicky and if it got anyone to leave a Rambo knife at home, that would save a lot of weight.

As a point of reference for a very expensive version of this same thing.
