I’ve been carrying a pocket knife since I was 8 (60 years). I usually have a Buck or Case in my pocket. I lost a couple of Swiss Army knives at the airport after 9-11.

I have several, Kershaw Leek, Kershaw Blur, Benchmade Griptilian (not crazy about the feel of the plastic handle), Case Trappers, Spyderco Tenacious, and Spyderco Sage among others. My latest is an Opinel No. 8, it's sort of crude, but it's very light to carry, with a useful blade shape and a secure lock.

I’ve carried my entire life. As a kid, I was fascinated with Daniel Boone, kit Carson, and other hero’s of the frontier. They all carried knives . So did I. I carried on a Bowie knife in my belt.

I even walked the streets to find road kill and would skin and cure the pelts. Raccoons, possums, and squirrels furs were all over my room.

Today i still carry but no longer carry Bowie knives. I have over 50 knives and have settled in a few that I regularly carry. My favorite is a bench made 3400. It’s a switchblade.

I can’t think of a reason why anyone would carry anything other than a switchblade.

I've been carrying the same little rosewood handle lock blade for about 40 years. Got a Case Hammerhead for if I kill a deer or rabbit. Also got a Smith & Wesson military issue switchblade I keep out in the shop.

Sold many a pocket knife order to many an oilfield service company with their company name & logo etched on the blade as a promotional products distributor.

Ouch. If you can’t use damn near any random thing laying around to open a bottle you’re not a real man.
