\"\"<\/a>I must have either been underneath a rock or just not paying attention,\u00c2\u00a0otherwise I would have gotten one of these a long time ago.\u00c2\u00a0When I wasn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t looking, Victorinox added glow-in-the-dark yellow to the list of choices for scale color for their Classic pocketknife. Like the GITD 1-liter Nalgene bottle, the luminescent feature at first seems gimmicky, but in actual use the ability to glow is understandable and desirable. I figure it will make the knife easier to find and harder to lose. If the knife lives in your pocket or SERE kit, it won\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t be \u00e2\u20ac\u0153charged\u00e2\u20ac\u009d with ambient light, so it won\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t glow when you whip it out in the dark, but if you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re using it at night with a flashlight or headlamp, the glow will probably help locate it if you put it down or drop it. Even if it isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t \u00e2\u20ac\u0153charged\u00e2\u20ac\u009d, the slightly greenish yellow is pretty garish, so it stands out against most natural background colors, making it easy to spot even if it isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t actively glowing.<\/p>\n
