re: What generation did men stop carrying a pocket knife?

02 high school. I figure I got out just before they started cracking down on it.

No one at Arkansas ever had an issue with it in college.

I carry one everyday (benchmade crooked river) except for when I go somewhere with a metal detector. It’s reflexive at this point, like grabbing the keys and the wallet in the morning or putting the safety back on after shooting while duck hunting.

I’ve gone through security in Little Rock legit not realizing I had a knife with me since it’s so routine. The TSA guys there are cool about it and have dropped it in the mail to me several times so I could go ahead and make my flight without losing it.
