I had no idea that there were two identical-looking knives (in pictures), but one is double the size and aluminum instead of plastic bodied. I want the ST-13. Tim: I just realized the one I have has the black hinge point (Devo hat) and clip, not the silver. So like below, but the one above is the stock photo. This is the 13, much smaller, plastic, it's what I wanted (and the one that got stolen by TSA). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

googus Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Just to be curious, since I find knives interesting what is the purpose of daily carrying one? Protection? Is more like a hobby. I would think for protection I rather carry a gun and work practical use I rather probably want to carry a multi tool knife. just looking for some insight and didn’t want to start a separate thread.

SwampNut Posted April 5, 2022 Author Share Posted April 5, 2022 Just a tool, I use it all the time. I also carry a flashlight. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As Carlos advised it is a tool. Constantly in use, cutting boxes open, strings off things, zip ties off stuff. Convenient clipped to a pocket. I also carry a firearm, but a knife serves a slight purposes as a back up fighting tool if shit got that bad. I keep a multi tool in the truck and SUVs for the reasons you mentioned.

It's a tool, I use the fuck out of it. The downside of the convenience is that sometimes I use it for the wrong things; prybar, screwdriver, hammer, ... And since I'm not allowed to carry a gun, it could come in handy for defensive use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwampNut Posted April 5, 2022 Author Share Posted April 5, 2022 It's worth noting that this knife, unlike many others, did not come in a package that needed a knife to open it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks greg My company does not allow most sharps to be used. They have to be spring-loaded and held open and have a dullish plastic blade, so I keep a benchmade bugout in my pocket to cut shit open and to slice my oranges. I face counseling if I am caught. I like living on the edge. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our lake would be like glass at night and super quiet. I would easily make top speed and have a great time of it. $50? Fuck yeah. $500? Hmm, maybe. Impound and pound me in the ass federal prison? Not so much. Fines are not things that keep me from doing things. They are the cost of entry, like a ticket to a movie. Oh, reminds me of saying this to the federal squirrel police for an infraction I truly didn't know I committed, after she went on a tirade: "Oh, it's only $50, hell, I'd just buy a prepaid book and do it every weekend!"

At least, not one that wasn't at a driver's/rider's expense. I don't know if it was here that I heard about it, but legend says a Trooper pulled a guy over on the Dragon, and the dude's bike tipped over on the sandy shoulder at some point during the stop. Naturally, the Trooper didn't miss the opportunity to cite him for losing control of his vehicle or some such thing as well. That probably qualifies as humor in certain circles.
