Your photo of your little 309 leaves me lacking in photo skills but I have enjoyed the years either of the little Bucks have been in a pocket of dress slacks......a real knife in a little package! Tony isn't the only one to enjoy #317 either. I guess I've "retired" mine but, who knows? My legs still work and I still hike & hunt.....just not as fast, far and not nearly as often as I'd like. That Buck probably feels the same.......
