""Don't take life too seriously, you will never get out alive."" |
Wow. No knives? You must have lost what 30 pounds of metal? |

It is EST 5AM...I took a pretty strong pain killer and have been up all night...I am sitting here playing with an older 440C 556 Mini Grip but even in my pajamas, I still have my full sized 552 Ritter M2...just in case I need a large utility blade in my bed.

Totally hear you there... I travel for work a fair amount, and always pack at least one EDC in the check bag - usually something easily and cheaply replaced like a Spyderco Native and/or Tasman Salt, or one of my CRKT's. One tidbit for all: I have carried a Cold Steel Mini Koga and Surefire E2D with a red filter on to disguise the crenelations through security with ZERO questions in Austin, Chicago, Portland, London, Amsterdam, Bangalore, Delhi, Hyderabad and a few other places. Always goes through the xray machine in my backpack. Never once questioned. |

Here is a couple pics of my EDC rotation. Not shown is my collection of Case stockmans that always find a place in a pocket.

Just don't have the knives clipped to your pajamas or the wife will have you committed.  Oh, if you're not married and want to be...refer to the same advice above.  ********************** ********************** “If you want a new idea, read an old book.” |

A big glass of water and my favorite EDC on the table next to the bed? My wife has the water too, but for her it's a book.
Can't tell you how many times recently I've gone for the knife instead of the water in the middle of the night. Funny what brings a person comfort. 350, 520, 525, 525BK-1101, 530, 530-901, 580-1102, 580 Proto, 583-1, 585-1, 635, 710-1, 710HS, 710D2, 722, 732, 740, 740 Proto, 741, 745, 746, 750, 760, 790, 800, 805-1101, 806BK-901, 812, 830, 831, 835HS, 840, 845, 905, 907D2, 910, 910SCG, 912D2, 913D2, 12400 Proto, 12410, 14205, 14210.

I hate flying now and not being able to carry my knife with me. I DO NOT feel safer now than I did pre-9/11 when I was able to carry a knife. The same is true for going to the courthouse. Basically, anywhere that I can't carry my knife makes me feel naked. I've only been carrying for about 35 of my 46 years, so for me it just come naturally that I have a knife in my pocket.
What is missed in the "no knife here" argument is the fact that a determined person can turn almost any item into a (deadly) weapon. NRA Life Member Benchmade knife-carying Life Member |

Here's my secret
 for traveling by air: Keep it slim and small. Checked inside my suitcase, my 350 Pardue slips in a zippered side pocket of my black leather bathroom kit in a black satin Benchmade bag. I've flown all over the country and it's always been there on my arrival...unless the suitcase doesn't show up, which has yet to happen. Sure its not a 520 but it's good for most jobs AND disappears in the pocket. 350, 520, 525, 525BK-1101, 530, 530-901, 580-1102, 580 Proto, 583-1, 585-1, 635, 710-1, 710HS, 710D2, 722, 732, 740, 740 Proto, 741, 745, 746, 750, 760, 790, 800, 805-1101, 806BK-901, 812, 830, 831, 835HS, 840, 845, 905, 907D2, 910, 910SCG, 912D2, 913D2, 12400 Proto, 12410, 14205, 14210.

You're right Darren, I did feel considerably lighter.

I HATE not being able to carry a knife. Like donwald, whenever I get up from sitting down I always tap my pocket to make sure my knife is still there. I do the same thing whenever I leave a place.
