On The Edge

A sharp knife is one of the most valuable tools a boater can have on board -- if it's kept handy. The Blackie Collins knife from Gerber is made of surgical stainless steel from tip to shank and locks into its durable polymer sheath. A belt clip keeps it handy. When not in use, stow it in the toolbox or glove box. The stainless is rust-resistant and will stay sharp. The serrated edge makes short work of cutting the toughest ropes. Cost is $49.99.
