This summer I'm going to be doing some field research work, some of it in boats. One piece of standard equipment that many of my peers seem to bring with them is a pocket knife. Everyone has a different knife. I'm trying to choose one for myself, but I am bewildered and confused. Looking on the Internet is not helping; everywhere I look seems to lack useful information, while having lots of hyperbole and macho bullshit. Then I remembered that this community has (a) plenty of people who do interesting things for a living and who might have opinions on pocket knives and (b) low amounts of macho bullshit.
So my question: What kind of pocket knife would you recommend, and why?
I've tried this recipe twice and ended up with lime soup each time. Clearly I did something wrong; unfortunately, I can't tell what.
Could I suggest that, while this might be the recipe for the best lime pie in the world, its lack of robustness means that it is not the best lime pie recipe in the world?
