Green_Manelishi:
Modified Buck Intrepid. I do a fair amount of diving to recover lobster traps for a friend and I find a larger knife to be more useful.

Green,

I carry a modified Intrepid, too. Routine run ups on lizards while crawling the bottom. I know, I know, "a dive knife is a tool, not a weapon". I call it an option if grabbed by an irritated scaly local.

I cut off the OE button snap and replaced it with a generic rubber knife retainer ring. Riveted it on with a plastic wire holder. Only gripe about the Intrepid is it rusts if not thoroughly cleaned after every salt dive. I tried to polish the SS surface and it helped a little.

I bought a "river knife" made for whitewater kayaking. It cost about 15$ and as far as I can tell it's almost identical to the halcyon knife....
