Isn’t that a concealed weapon? A neck knife?

I have not read all this maybe somebody already hit the point but if you're going to carry a knife for protection I suggest you watch Crocodile Dundee he will show you what kind of knife to use.

Well that's not an exclusive flaw to cheap knives.
Both of the benchmades I kept are open frame
and subject to jamming with whatever else may
be in your pocket, including lint

That is one reason they have a pocket clip.


Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

What do you all carry for "urgent" situations?
Gerber Paraframe was may dandelion digger, now using a Buck Banshee.

I slide a Buck 175 in my pocket when I go out, other than work.

You have to survive the altercation first, and since the criminals are usually carrying firearms I will take that into consideration when I decide on what to carry.

Politicians who deliberately choose to bar me from protecting myself and my family are the enemy and I tend to bear that in mind when I make my choices.

I don't carry a knife into a gun fight.

The late Remy Presas was the finest bladed and blunt trauma weapons expert of his generation. He would still be if he were alive today. The skills trumped the weapons and the disparity of numbers. He could have easily taken chop back by himself.

On our Bosin trip, I can't take a knife, or even pepper spray.

I'll have to get by with my stick, and a flashlight.

A bright flashlight has come in handy.
It once kept me from having to lawfully shoot a man in self defense.

A stick/ baton are my personal favorites. Do you carry an expandable baton or a solid one?

If the bad guy gets too close, I'll stomp on his instep, and break 20 some bones, then run as fast as my fat little legs will let me.
