Poll: knife carrying

[williss]

Small (very) Buck 756. Gets used all the time.

 

[Brewster20]

Yes..Swiss Army Classic with the screwdriver file.
I believe I already answered part two.

 

[Grouse Man]

Around the house or cottage, there's usually at least a penknife in my pocket.

 

[Wally1966]

No, not anymore. Stopped carrying one at around age 30. Only need a knife for work, but I love knives and have many!

 

[Ubermeier]

I carry every day. Ken Onion design Kershaw. That and a Zippo, even though I don't smoke. Why wouldn't you?

 

[Mosin42]

I carry a Buck folder all the time for whatever I may need it for.

 

[CanadianPatriot91]

I carry a small folding pocket knife sometimes.

 

[FarmYard]

All day every day. Use it every day at work and home. Also carry a flashlight as well, everyday.

 

[Chas59]

Every day, at least one, usually two...different sizes.

 

[BCMac]

Everyday, that baling twine is pretty rough on the hands to pull open.

 

[gorby]

Used to have one in my backpack for eating apples, but lost it going through airport security.

I work in an office, so no reason to carry one and I have access to scissors and a kitchen full of knives. When I worked construction it was never an issue as I always packed the dedicated tools I needed. Take a leatherman if I am in the woods or a rescue knife if on the river.

Yes daily as a tradesman and always seem to use it at least once a weekend or more. Two weeks ago cut a 70 yr old couple out of their car as they hit the left front corner of a city bus,flipped on its roof and slid up the lane and stopped beside me in the company pickup as I had pulled up behind the bus. After confirming they weren’t hurt seriously (actually not a scratch) I cut the husbands belt passenger side as he was backwards in his seat with belt across his back and had his legs twisted up under the dash like a gymnast and carefullyhad them out and on their feeet before emergency arrived—-Dieseldog!

 

[terez]

K...I'll admit to sometimes carrying a knife purely to piss off the leftys....seriously..

Absolutely love the squeamish looks ...even better when they snivel out loud...

There I said it.

 

[Robt6440]

You betcha! Was EDCing a Spyderco Dragonfly, now a Delica... for going to the opera of course.

 

[yonderin]

Early in my army career, I learned to always carry a knife, a light and a piece of string. Don't much need the string on a regular basis any more.

 

[Skeet Mcgee]

Yes, when outside of the city. Keep it in the glove box in the city

 

[JYS]

Nice try RCMP

 

[silverfoxdj]

That is some funny and sad ####!

1) Yes, I do take part in this time-honored tradition for men throughout history. Thank you Romans - for the invention of the folding pocket knife.

2) Why you ask? Because it is a very useful tool and essential tool for everyday life - you can use it to for cutting rope/strings, opening envelopes, slicing a piece of fruit and if I have no other option - cutting/opening E.E purchased boxes/toys.

^^^^^ This works for me

Then why was a bagpipe player fined 200 bucks for the knife he had on as part of his uninform in downtown Montreal?

Because he didn't call it a Kirpan, then it would have been ok.

 

[Magellann]

I carried a pocket knife for many years but not so much anymore. I still keep one in the glove box for times I need it.
