Yea I do too. I keep a bunch of knives in my truck, actually, because I haul a lot of stuff to jobs, and keep cheap cord in my truck that I am always cutting to tie things up when ratchet straps alone aren't enough.

I would not consider any of those to be a simple pocket knife but as I stated I always think of a simple old timer or something when someone says pocket knife.

Good lord this thread is retarded. Anyone saying this is anything other than a pocket knife is just as ridiculous as the dumb broad saying it was a Swiss army knife. It's a frickin pocket knife.

Furthermore, it doesn't matter what you call it. It is a deadly instrument. And it was used with deadly intent.

Oh no I wouldn't consider it a pocket knife either.

Why does a knife need a seat belt cutter? Seems kind of redundant.

It’s a pocket knife but I understand your thoughts.

It’s probably a Chinese made $8.99 knife and still dangerous.

Too bad he didn’t slice his hand wide open during deployment.

I honestly have no idea. Maybe it's easier to use while upside down?

If you're hanging upside down in a car it may be nice to be able to cut your belt without having to have the blade out. Plus, I haven't seen one of these personally, but I'll bet that blade on the seatbelt cutter is sharper than the knife blade.

It wasn't a tiny Swiss Army knife, that's for sure.

This blade is 2.75", btw.




Smaller than the one Karmelo used to murder Austin Metcalf.

It’s probably on the upper end of your average pocket knife blade size. That stated, it doesn’t look too menacing to me.

The big picture is none of this matters. Justice was served. I don’t care about it now.

Just speaking for me, of course.

If it can fit comfortably in my pocket it's a pocket knife

Tactical camo, black blade. Definitely an assault knife. Why have a knife that looks like that if not to kill. Why does anyone need a knife like that unless they are in combat?

Weapon of war!!

Wloaaah. I saw a clip of the dumb women on the view explaining that it was a boy scout swiss army knife. This is much more violent than a swiss army knife

I agree with you, although I'm guessing we might be technically wrong. I'm sure that classifies as a "pocket knife" but my personal definition of a pocket knife is similar to yours. I carry something like this (same as my grandfather did):

Small enough to comfortably fit in the top pocket of a dress shirt. Enough to complete the small daily tasks like opening packages, etc. I wouldn't consider this a "weapon".

Larger knifes, like Karmelo's, I would consider potentially dangerous weapons. Still legal pocket knives though.

Okay? We knew that before the picture was posted. What was the point of posting the picture?

How long is that blade?


You’ll notice that evidence marker has a scale on it. Each one of those stripes equals 1 cm. Compare those to the blade and it appears to be 9 or 10 centimeters, or a little less than 4”. (Just eyeballing)

That is a pocket knife.

You are starting to sound a little progressive.

It is comical that the same people using “he put his hands on him” and therefore justifying Anthony’s actions are the ones who are always saying that the cops should’ve “shot him in the leg” or “fighting a cop or beating a convenience store owner with a bat doesn’t mean he deserved to get killed”.

Blanket defense and excuses based solely on the races involved.
