My friend had asked me out today so I'd decided to go on a little shopping spree at the military surplus stores and the nearby stationery stores. I'd managed to get two items for myself:
1 (The Sheffield 12104 knife) and 2 (The NT A-300-GRP paper cutter)
For a basic utility knife that I normally carry about, the Sheffield is remarkably good value for money. The first one I'd gotten (the one I call Flower Cutter) has not rusted after quite some service in a sweaty pocket. No rust on the blade. Holds an edge quite well, too. What I like best about the Sheffield is the fact that it can be opened by one hand (left or right handed) and can be closed by one hand (if one knows the technique). Suits me fine as I like have ambidextrous blades.
The NT paper cutter was one of my old friends. The automatic locking mechanism is reliable and effective, and the metal parts seldom rusted (some of my friends eventually had rusty cutters). Never happened to me, though. I'm not really into buying paper cutters very often, so I'd figured that I might as well invest in a fairly good one. My last one was damaged beyond repair, so this one shall be its successor. Bwahaha.
