@afroninjaman7 Or they carry a pocketknife for first aid, opening those imposable to open packages, or to open a box, or if they get in a car accident they could cut the seatbelt, or cut some rope for a repair, or maybe to climb, or even for prying something. You see a knife isn't just for killing some one. A knife has thousand of purposes, even cave men used them.

Only little sad pussys carry a knife because they know they know they don't stand a chance in a fight!

@aceofspaids98

Yea, agreed.

However I said about carrying one on the street. I mean as you walk about in town, going to the shops, a bar, that kind of thing.

I carry a knife in my ruc-sack for bushcraft allong with a bunch of other gear, but not in town.

@MaxSafeheaD really? look up and see ,y old comment because most of these people were saying to never carry a knife in general

[MaxSafeheaD]

@aceofspaids98

The subject of the video was injury from a fight with a knife involved.

The context of our exchange was knife use "in the street," "in a life-threatening situation."

If you're not suggesting using a knife in a street fight then wtf ARE you talking about?!

[aceofspaids98]

@MaxSafeheaD Did I ever say it that you should ever use it in a fight? No.

[aceofspaids98]

@MaxSafeheaD No they could get in a car accident and they seat belt is stuck. They have no way of getting free. That was one of many points of that comment.

@aceofspaids98

Cowardice is why pricks carry bladed weapons in the first place.

Best you rephrase your statement.

[aceofspaids98]

[MaxSafeheaD]

[aceofspaids98]

@aceofspaids98

There's no need for carrying a knife on your person in the street.
