This may sound a little strange, but I'm trying to find a knife that would make a good letter opener. It needs to be a fixed blade and have a slim blade, of course.
I kind of like the smallest Randall Number 2, with leather handle, but have never seen on in person. It might be too big. I bought one of those Kershaw "military" knives, similar to the older "Solingen" blades, but the blade is a bit too broad to work well. I guess I want something nicer than a $10-type letter opener. Something nice to look at on the desk.
I even thought about an automatic, if I could find one with a slim blade. It would be something "gadgety" to use for opening mail.
Does anyone have any other suggestions?
Thanks.
