I take a knife with me everywhere I go - have since I was a kid. I grew up in the South and now live in Virginia so guns and knives are pretty unremarkable.

New York's finest confiscated my 5.75" Benchmade Stryker while I was in line to tour Ellis Island a few years ago. The officer asked me where I was from. I told him I was from Virginia and he told me that having a knife like that in New York was a felony. I respectfully replied that when everything is made to be a felony then nothing is a felony.

I think its sad when sporting a personal knife is characterized as a crime worthy of a felony conviction. Ironic since I have worked in DC for the last nine years and carry a knife with me every single day. I don't hide it either - the clip is always sticking out of my left front pocket. Folks are so used to seeing it that they don't even ask about it. But when and if they do, I take it out and show it to them.

Felony. Sheesh.

The knife I started this thread with is the second of its kind. The first one was taken from me when I tried to enter the Sprint Center for the circus a few months ago. Seems that it is a dangerous weapon.

They let me keep the camera around my neck that would have made a much more effective weapon had I chosen to bludgeon someone with it.

After a series of lost knives, I had to pick this up during the week. I'm not keen on aggressive looking designs but this was the most "tool" looking designthey had.

My problem with this design is the same problem I have with the metallic SOG in my pic. The clip is mounted too low so that when you clip it in your pocket too much of the knife sticks out. The naval knife (the larger black one) gets it right - all you can see is the clip. Not so much a design flaw as a preference thing.

The man who gave me this knife died a few days ago. I'm retiring the knife in his honor.

Now I have to find something else to carry.

If I am tactical, I carry two more knives. On the inside of my body armor, I carry a smith & wesson boot knife. On the outside of my body armor, I carry an Air Force survival knife (also one that was issued)

Sarge, that KaBar knife on the end was the exact one I had as a kid. I lost it during one of my moves. It was unusual in the hex shaped pommel. Where did you get that picture? Also where did you get the second to last knife?

The TSA took away mine recently saying the knife was the problem yet they let you take a scissors up to 3 inches long!

It's unsafe to have passengers uncorking their own bottles of wine at 30,000 feet.

Cuts into the airlines' profits too much.

I think it was W. C. Fields who was once lost in the mountains of Afghanistan without a bottle-opener, and was forced to survive on just food and water for two weeks.
