A blast from the past.

I have seen posts on BF - as by Jaxx above - claiming the actual terminology is HOFSH. No photo handy, but I have a fairly rare Camo version. Nice handling and balance for a hefty knife. I used to try and keep up with photos of my continually growing collection, but fell behind years ago. One of these days - when I retire? Have a great Sunday, y’all.
 
We’re talking here about an old timer (from Australia) who used to call up during our local business hours and the only person answering the phones State Side was the Janitor himself... after healthy dose of liquid inspiration...

That's young Rocky. Was never more than two foot from my side until school grabbed a hold of him and wrecked it all. :D

Dwayne, only one way of describing that pic. Beautiful.

That little fella at the bottom? Was it called Police ??? can't think of its properer name, I had one and have the feeling that I left it in the glove box of the rock truck when I retired and sold the truck.
 
I always love seeing the blades you post up Ian, not to mention pictures of the pooch!

leatherman leatherman what's that fourth blade down from the top?

I think it is a BBSHSHII (Bird Beak SHSH II).

Yep! A grail knife for me back then, was really hard to let go of but I'd never have used it, just too special. It had an unusual textured coating, not the usual smooth stuff. One of the best feeling knives I've ever held. The balance was amazing.
