I immediately felt a sentimental attraction to it as it has more than a passing similarity to my late mother's Joseph Rogers that she used in the early 1950s to make cuttings in the family nursery (well before the term EDC and when carrying a knife was normal rather than unusual ... that particular Joseph Rogers also has a lot of air miles as my mom carried it in her handbag on international flights in the "good old days" - the initial thought behind the Roadie). I have a feeling I am going to be getting a pile of these to give away as presents to non knife people.
