Here's the original. It took a bit of searching to find a decent pic since they're not offered anymore.

I have the full size non-serated version.

I have to admit, Iolaus, they are some pretty blades! I love me a good knife! (blade fetish!)

Ebay has them as low as $34.95 "Buy It Now." Just ordered one myself.

It looks too much like a kitchen knife to me

For day to day use I wear the original Cold Steel Skean Dhu, but moving off at a tangent:-

As for a variety of reasons I need to use a walking stick these days: for day to day use around town I carry their City Stick-a nice weight and with it's black shaft and polished steel knob it adds a bit of dash, and goes well with the kilt.

In the country I think a Thumb Stick is more appropriate, but a bit long for around town-in and out of vehicles etc.
