Father’s Day Gift Ideas: A Quality Knife
By Sean O'Hara
Remember that guy whose tools you left out in the rain when you were five? Yep, that’s Dad, and his special day is coming up quickly. And just like last year, we’d like to recommend a good quality pocket knife as a perfect Father’s Day gift. We’ve posted about a few already, but here’s another you might consider: the Case Small Congress Mammoth Ivory.

Street pricing starts at $182.
