Do you carry a pocket knife?

GoldenRivet · 03-02-11, 03:52 PM

If so what kind?

I think that pretty much every man ought to carry a pocket knife with him wherever he goes. I have found myself needing one more often than not, and back before i started carrying one i found myself frequently wishing i had one and cussing myself because i didnt.

I carry the Colombia River Knife and Tool M16-13Z

It is a durable, medium weight, single edged, assisted opening knife of 8 inches length end to end and has not let me down yet.

I ised to carry its little brother the M16-01Z which is about an inch shorter.

I wan't to, but the school won't let me

No. I would get fired if I got caught bringing anything of the sort to work. Also, it's application within the confines of music history and theory would be limited.

obviously there are certain folks who cannot carry a pocket knife because of school or work... if you meet this criteria - you need not apply

I want to carry a sword, but I don't think they would let me. :P

may i ask you to expand on that.

does carrying a pocket knife in Denmark automatically cause one to be arrested? or are you involved in some sort of trade wherein pocket knives and other sharp objects are frowned upon?

Where i live, i can only think of a couple of people i know who dont take one with them virtually everywhere they go

its just illegal to carry knives here, hell, even a carpet cutter or a screwdriver might get you into trouble if you're carrying one and you're either off work, or you have no use for it

Well, there you go. You just need to be creative in finding a use for it.

I tend to carry one with me all the time. It's a useful tool, and better to have it and not need it, then to need it and not have it. Unless I'm going somewhere it is specifically forbidden, I have my knife.

No, I already have too much to carry and I don't find myself needing to cut things that often. Maybe if I was a farmer or construction worker I would need it.

Same here. For the past few years I've carried a Dollar store imitation Swiss army knife for opening boxes and fixing stuff at work. Now my college doesn't allow knifes or other weapons on campus so I don't carry it anymore.

Funny thing is I can carry an exacto knife for one of my classes. That thing is more dangrous than my crappy knife.

Feuer Frei! · 03-02-11, 09:50 PM

I don't carry a pocket knife, never been that 'type of guy'.
Plus it's illegal here where i live.
I do have a tiny swiss knife on my keyring for cutting loose threads off clothing or anything that might need a trim, but that's as close as i get to the 'real thing'.

Gargamel · 03-02-11, 11:07 PM

Yes.

Swiss Armoy Scout knife.

McGyver Style.

I carry one of those things that make AirCraft hit Tall Buildings.
And I thought my Gerber Boot and Belt was bad!

Maybe if I felt that things were peachy keen?
I would not carry a knife.
But I'll be damned if I'm ever caught unarmed in this day and age!
(The sword is just to big to carry around until December 2012)
