I asked this question on a different thread and it got covered up and never answered... So I will ask again.

Has anyone out there bought or been around the Light My Fire SL3 Knife? I have been kicking around telling my wife that it is what I want for X-mas.

I was in REI a couple of days ago and looked at it, I have to admit that it was bigger than what I thought it would be. I like the idea of droping the matches in my pack and using the FireSteel as a back up fire source.

Getting the SL3 would mean that I would drop my trustly Swiss Army knife but this knife is a little bigger and does have a 50/50 serrated blade.

Throw in your two cents

Remember the Duke's line after Glenn Campbell's character shoots the turkey? "Too much gun!"

Here's a good one. (http://www.rei.com/product/403028)
Blade, tweezers, toothpick and, best of all, scissors.
Weighs an ounce.
Mine rides on a lanyard (http://www.rei.com/search?vcat=REI_SEARCH&query=trip+tease&x=0&y=0) with my two micro lights (http://www.rei.com/product/632461) and whistle (http://www.rei.com/search?vcat=REI_SEARCH&query=whistle&x=0&y=0).

Yeah, I agree somewhat.

My Swiss is the same one and it has served its purpose well.

As you said...maybe too much gun.
