I know it’s qutie a bit to look at, but it’s a gift for my boyfriend who’s always wanted one. He plans on joining the Army next year and wanted one with an LED light, but I have no idea which to pick out? It’s just something he would like to carry around.
Are some too bulky? Which one would be more useful to him?
It is incredibly difficult to pick an all-purpose knife for someone else, even if you know him very well.
I’m a bit of a knife freak myself, and spent over 20 yrs in the Army, so I asked myself which one I would be more likely to buy for myself.
Frankly, I believe I’d pick #4. It’s simple, basic, and isn’t going to bulk up the pocket. It doesn’t have all those fancy extras … but generally those are pretty bad compromises for the tool they’re trying to replace.
For me, I’d pick # 4 — AND also get him a good-quality Leatherman multi-tool, with a pouch. The total should be about the same as the high-end Swiss tool, but he’ll have much more useful, functional tools overall. I think he’ll find this combination a lot more useful, both in the Army and for general carrying, with better choices of what to carry under different circumstances.
Good luck to you both!
