Do You Carry A Blade?

I always carry a knife unless unpermitted to do so by law. This comes from my Grandfather harassing me and my cousins whenever he caught us not having one on our person. He has been known to do this from the time he was a Lt. in Armys 2nd Armored Divison. He would line everyone up and tell them to pull out there pocket knives. Today I got some weird looks as I sliced open some packages here at work. I was just wondering how many of you carry a knife on you everyday and what you carry?
I carry a Kershaw Skyline most the time but I have pently of others to choose from.

Every man should carry a knife. I carry one of these three. A case 2 blade. An Old Timer Schrade 3 blade Middleman, or an Old Timer Schrade 2 blade muskrat.

I have never purchased a decent knife, but I always have a small pocket knife that came with a tree stand I purchased years ago, I also have a winchester pocket knife that I received in a Christmas gift exchange. I usually have one or the other on me.

If you do go buy one. Buy it from a garage sale etc. Schrade or Case. Don't buy new. Nobody makes em like they used to.

Like the others, I never leave home without a knife. I get weird looks from time to time, and sometimes people make smartass comments... but guess what, who do you think they all come to when they can't fuckin open something? Yep... the guy with the knife. Chicks dig guys with knives.

That's cause they're men not some of the sissy boy metros... There was an article in redbook last month that said women are starting to gravitate back to real men. Funny.. I never saw a good woman want anything else.




In case you didn't catch that... No I don't read redbook. Lisa on 95.5 mentioned it in the morning show

ALWAYS.
I have rotated and have at least one from all the big players.
Just depends where I'm headed.

Gramp started me on always having one as a child. And how to keep it sharp w/ a stone. (yes. real men use a stone)

I have carried a Swiss Army knife for 15 years, before that I carried a single blade Buck. I have carried a knife since I was a kid.

Swantucky, I am going to start calling you MaGaver, lol.

Yea I carry one, only problem is we are not suppose to have them on the Pad or Rig, but I still do. Shit I can't tell ya how many times I have used it to cut my Poly Flow gas line tube and cutting tube for a splice. Even the rough necks come up to me and borrow it.

Why can't you have one on the rig??? Might get the urge to stab a roughneck?

That would be my guess. Roughnecks work hard and fight at the drop of a hat. next thing ya know out comes the hawkbill knife.
