Pocket knives?

[The Banterer]

Just curious to see who here carries a knife with them at all times(except when flying of course) and what they carry.

I usually carry either a full-size Swiss Army Knife(usually a Wenger EvoGrip 16) or a Leatherman Juice. Occasionally, if I know that I'm going to be doing a lot of cutting(like mowing a lawn for instance), I'll carry my Spyderco Native.

So what say you?

[Limnos]

Own several but never carry one.

[Wacoso]

Keep one at the office. One at home. One in the car. But never on me.

I have a mini Kershaw Ranger knife with a half serated blade. It fits on my keychain and I carry it around everywhere, except on planes of course.

...like mowing a lawn for instance???

How long does it take you to mow a lawn with a pocket knife? Just curious.

And actually, if you want to use said mowing pocket knife, my lawn crew forgot to do the backyard last time and it looks like an absolute jungle. I'm about to lose a poodle in there, if you want to help out.

Usually about 12 hours, depending on the lawn. I charge $15 for the front, $30 for both, and there would probably need to be lemonade to secure a trip to Galveston.

A long time ago in the seventh grade I got a friend to bring me back a switchblade from Mexico. He gave it to me at school and I carried it in my back pocket to Ms. Spross's English class 1st period. About halfway through the class a friend wanted to see it. I jammed my hand in my back pocket to pull it out quickly and be cool. I didnt know the cheap knife had come open. It sliced my finger pretty good and I just happened to be wearing white pants that day. I had to go home and change. I later beat up the guy that said I must have gotten my period.

After that I stopped carrying a knife. I have several in my pick up and one that fits on my saddle and one in the tool box on my motorcycle and several at the house and barn.

I only carry one at work...doing shake downs it comes in handy to cut down stuff...

If you can make it here before the hurricane, I'll even spike the lemonade for you.

I carry a very small Gerber with me all the time. Not that I need it hardly ever, but I got in the habit a couple decades ago when I was in construction.

[BearTooth]

I carry my father's 3 blade Old Timer. He bought it in 1950 and had it in his pocket every day. When he died, it came to me and I've carried it since then.

[LIQRinPU]

I have my Grandpa's pocketknife but keep it in my sock drawer. I used to lose my pants on a regular basis so I thought the sock drawer was safer.

White pants were pretty popular back in the 70's and 80's.....

[Bexar Fan]

I carry a generic mini that clips to my keychain. The grips have long since come off as I have carried it for 20 years or so.

I understand this fact, which is why it's so funny now

1973 and in the 7th grade. Chicks dug the white pants. My favorite pair of jeans were bell bottoms with studs that ran up both sides. I wore them with my 3 inch red and blue platform shoes.

Carrying a switchblade to school was dumb enough LIQR.

I carry a 2.5" cutco locking blade and a small swiss army knife next to a mini flashlight on my key chain.

[LIQRinPU]

I didnt carry it to school. The guy I bought it from delivered it at school. We guys at Midway always dealt in weapons before the morning bell. It was really a rough school.

I bought my first Uzi before class at Midway. Things had settled down though, we were just hobbyists.

[LIQRinPU]

Yep. I was one of the OG's homey.

Rich folks. We had to make our own in shop class out of a nail and a tube.

[ChipOC]

Mom, can you get me another toothbrush, I had to whittle mine down again to make a shank for school.

Back in the day, it was actually pretty common. I have an annual that has a picture of one of my friends holding a pistol, with another friend sticking his finger in the end of the barrell, both laughing.
