Family camping holiday touring France in an Austin Seven Summer 2018...

[Colin Wilks]

On the subject of sharp pointy things that get confiscated at the airports, I have a custom made "Laguiole" pocket knife made by Laguiole Actiforge. It has a boars head stamped into the blade and the handle is made of juniper wood. This one has a slightly longer blade than the 4" normally acceptable in the UK.



I have no financial connection with the factory but they will deliver to the UK (and elsewhere). Beware that some of the Damascus steel versions are expensive (but very nice).
All knives are hand made and very tactile:

Many thanks for this Reckless. You have solved my "Secret Santa" quandary at a stroke! (with apologies for mentioning Christmas before the end of August)
