Traditional type pocket knives are ...well...traditional after all. Nothing
wrong with that but there are far better knives for a boy interested in
hunting and fishing than the old style non locking folding knife. A small
quality fixed blade like the Buck 102 Woodsman is light, inexpensive
and will last a lifetime with minimal care. Much better and easier to
clean for the messy work associated with hunting and fishing and
safer to boot than any non locking folder. Since prices are reasonable
there's nothing wrong with having both.
