For everyone reading this thread, I highly recommend Meditations on Violence by Sgt Rory Miller, also Gavin DeBecker's The Gift of Fear and Other Servival Signals that Protect Us from Violence,  and I highly highly recommend having a good, deep read here...http://www.nononsenseselfdefense.com/

 

 

I completely understand, and I've read those before, I know what's in them.

 

Well, I guess we all need to come to our own conclusions based on the information we have but please don't loose sight of the fact that for you, that information is augmented by military training. :0/

 

Dude, please, please don't encourage these kids to carry weapons. :0/

I don't, I've already said I won't advocate for people to actively carry weapons. I just understand why someone would.

Haha, I'd be happy with that.

 

Leatherman is great, I'm happy with the couple I have, but my god are they too bulky sometimes. The smaller ones are much better in my opinion.

I have a leatherman skeletool but wanted something more substantial (not necessarily a pocketable one, for putting in my bag)

Ah, I would just browse their site and find one that fits your needs.

By panicking and pulling a knife  to avoid taking an oft times non-lethal pounding, you've just escalated it into serious shit. That action has taken it OUT of social violence and made it a deadly force encounter. Your worst fears have been realized because YOU MADE IT HAPPEN.

 

That dude is now legally justified to pull a gun out and blow your brains into a fine pink mist. If you use you super ninja silat commando knife training on the dude, then YOU are legally the aggressor ... no matter who started it. YOU have crossed the line into excessive force AND instigated the use of lethal force. And lethal force is only justified if you are in IMMEDIATE danger of death or grievous bodily injury. Losing a fight does NOT qualify. No matter how scared you are of losing.

 

When it comes to using a knife on another human being let me state right now: 

   

I don't give a fuck what you think "self-defense" with a knife is.

 

    Nor do I give a rat's ass about what your instructor says is 

    justified use of  force (as he teaching you all these killer kung fu  

   commando deadly knife moves).

 

    I also don't give a tinker's damn about all the macho huffing and

    puffing  about "If I ever had to use this I'd..." BS that so many 

   wanna-be 'knife fighters' repeat endlessly on the internet (or  the

   ignorant chanting of "I'd rather be judged by twelve than carried by 

   six" mantra)

 

I say this because about 99% of what is out there about 'knife fighting' will either get you killed or put you into the prison showers.

This thread got derailed quickly. Now heres someting plain and simple. Design purpose vs intent. Its not like you grab a hold of a circumsicion knife you have a sudden urge to randomly circumsize someone do you. If you know what your doing knives can be an excellent tool to use. Like in boyscouts always remember the blood circle. And carrying knives is fine. People carry guns all the time. Knives have quite a bit less lethal potential as you have more chance of surviving a knife stab then a gunshot. And some people are quite immune to pepper spray and tasers. Anyway go back to posting knife pics

[techswede]

My knife collection is really small at the moment. (Mostly because i want a sword instead)

But here are the ones i've got. 
On the left is a reindeer horn handled knife i got from a sami dude in the north of sweden when i was 12. He just gave it to me for some reason. And yes. That is real fur on it
The one on the right is one i picked up at a viking faire. 

The blades look like this
The one on the left is rusty because it was stored in a basement that got flooded.. That's what moisture does to carbon steel.
The other one was forged by a blacksmith at the faire. It doesn't have the best finish. But damn its sharp
