Halve the weight?

[Timelord]

I bought one a few days ago. it was one of those plastic ones. I do like the titanium ones and I did buy one as present for a friend a few years back & it was a nice piece of kit. I have umm'd & arr'd about buying a titanium one for myself since then but held off because I have always found more important preps to spend that money on (approx £12+) I actually think it is a tad expensive for what it is. I have seen those plastic ones advertised for ages but also did not buy one as I thought the plastic would probably break or go brittle etc.

I got my hands on one of the plastic ones in an Army Surplus a few days ago and I can say the plastic was of excellent durable quality and had a lot of flex in it. A bit like a polyurethane mix. I bought one and it was only 99p & even lighter than the titanium one. Bargain!!
