Ordered myself a new one recently. Nothing special but always comes in handy. The previous one i had for more that 10 years lost it somewhere recently. Had to contact lowes customer service on this page https://lowes.pissedconsumer.com/customer-service.html, cause my delivery was late at the beginning. They sorted it out very quickly.

When we go to the Smoky Mountains we always go to Smoky Mountain knife works in sevierville. We always find something that we need or can’t live without. That place is big enough that you could easily make a half a day of it.

Yeah, last time someone asked to borrow my pocket knife was at a Lowes, and when the jerk returned it, he had snapped the blade off trying to use it as a pry bar. That did it for me: I will never again lend anyone my knife for any reason. You ask, you get one of two responses, depending on circumstances, either (1) here, let me cut it for you, or (2) NO, you are on your own. And especially it's NO for a stranger in a store. You came here ill prepared to deal, it's not my job to be your adult supervision today.

Put me in the camp that I have always carried a pocket knife as long as I can remember. I switched to a Leatherman when I started working nights.

My question, how to conveniently carry it and a mini-flashlight now that I switched to suspenders? I tried the belt and suspenders route but didn't like. I now just put one in each front pocked but I really miss them on a belt.

RRR, sorry, all I can think of is a "fanny pack", or ditch the suspenders and go back to belt... Not much help I know.

When I changed to suspenders it was bib overhauls. (Stopped smoking cigarettes, never found work jeans that butt and wallet fit in at same time LOL) Belt knife sheath moved to tool pocket on leg.
The company wife worked for planed to pass out little lights for key chain. When I was parking equipment in a mine, I clipped one to zipper pull of jacket. Still there. Another is attached to the little knife in my pocket. Not the best flashlight, but for a quick look, fine. And works to find a flashlight.

I guess it isn't really a 'pocket' knife if you carry it on your belt. That must be either a folding knife or a sheath knife.

I think a pocket knife and a mini-light would both easily fit in a pocket. Haven't carried a light since that feature became standard function of a cell phone.
