I have about 20 SmithNWesson knives... all different types. But I rarely look at them... let alone actually use them.

Maybe there are applications I could put these babies to use that I am not realizing...

There's a myriad of uses for them. Everything from cleaning fingernails to cutting food to eat at work. Google "uses for a pocket knife". I carry a Swiss Army Knife or a Leatherman, so I have scissors, a knife, screwdriver, etc. wih me. Very handy to have.

There was a time when every man carried one. Both of my grandfathers caried one, my dad and FIL both carry one.

The question shouldn't be "why should I carry one?" it should be "why sholdn't I carry one?"
