I’ve wondered about this on long distance hikes. Some creepy folks out there

I packed one on a few trips. Don’t anymore.

I feel much safer in the woods than in town. Plus that’s a brick on my hip that is tough to keep dry.

An extra 4-6 pounds for 15-25 miles a day would suck. I already do what I can to save ounces here and there.

I’m out on the trail in the Georgia/NC section at least once a month. In the bubble and when I haven’t seen anyone in 30 miles, never felt unsafe. This issue has been on white blaze since the first one. Guy with mental issues and on lots of drugs. I think he was selling some sort of dope as well to bubble hikers.
