re: Reminder of why I ALWAYS carry a pocket knife

quote:

I've carried a knife every day since about 6th grade and at no point in my life did I ever think about using it for self defense

I carry two knives, but have them primarily in case needed for weapon (handgun) retention. My knife-fighting training is minimal (with Les Buck), so using a knife for self-defense isn't something I'd automatically default to.

But I always have at least a 9mm Glock (and 18-35 rounds of HST) on me anytime I walk out the door of my house (except for places where CCW is prohibited by law). Other than a legal prohibition, I can't imagine what would make//cause me to not be carrying a handgun.
