How About A Nice Pocket Knife

I am a firm believer that carrying a pocket knife is beneficial. I know it can be used as a weapon if need be. But maybe I'm just from the old school that carries a knife to use as a tool. Growing up most of the kids carried a pocket knife. Perhaps a nice Buck knife or even a good old Swiss Army knife. That's because as kids we were fishing and camping and having fun, and a knife was a handy "tool". Well now that I'm grown up (I guess), the reasons for carrying a pocket knife aren't much different. I still go fishing and camping. Now I will use a knife to clean my golf spikes, or cut a piece of rope at the building supplier. My first though is a using my pocket knife as a tool not a weapon.
