Do you carry a pocket knife?

Geesh, I know hundreds of trades that require sharp tools, paperhangers, carpet layers, builders, etc... Certainly you have these trades there and somehow they have to carry the tools to work and back.

I have lot's of pocket knives, my son loves using them out in the woods or backyard. Years ago in the 4th grade, he put on pants with a small pocket knife and went to school. He gave it to the teacher and explained, but was suspended for a week anyway, never been in trouble of any kind.

When I was in high school, late 70's, we didn't carry guns or knives into school, but many a pick up had a gun rack loaded with guns in the school parking lot, we all went hunting after school. They did finally stop it in 1980. Good thing, busing crap started about then and a small white rural school became mixed with the inner city an hour away. All hell broke out for two years and I guess we finally got use to each other. I still got several scars from being cut up with a box razor.
