I carry this on my keychain:

Handy as gently caress if your a technician or a repairman, and it costs less than $3 online.



In my bag I have this:

It's a Victorinox knife, so it's expensive, but worth every penny.

Z so good
I once bought a pocket knife because it looked cool and I could flip it open like a badass and my mate became obsessed with it. We realized that the one who held the knife has all the power and we kept trying to steal it from each other. Eventually we realized the power of the knife was too much for us to handle and we dropped it in the sewage drain for the greater good.

Swiss Army knives are bullshit, most of the tools are so hard to pull out.

Everyone shits on cargo shorts because they got popular with neckbeards but they still own bones if you do a lot of outdoors stuff.

Princess Auto has those and I use them so much. Mine come with a Robinson as well. Robinson is the king of screw heads.

I take a Swiss army knife with me, when I travel. It bought it for $15 on amazon and is build to withstand a nuclear explosion from 10ft away. I use it semi-regularly to open wine bottles and packaging. One time I used the screw driver. It has a can opener and something that I've been told is used to sew tent fabric(?). I have never used it to open a can or sew a tent.

I got a Swiss army knife and told myself "I won't lose the toothpick this time." I made it maybe two weeks before finding it missing. I don't even remember taking it out to use it. Now the knife just sits in my drawer and I feel a mixture of anger and regret every time I see it.

Since carrying knives became illegal where I live in Australia, I only pack a 1 inch blade on my keyring.

It does not represent my penis size.

I'm hoping that if I'm ever arrested the cops will ignore it, and that if I do get busted the judge will laugh it out of court.

It has a small number of very useful inbuilt items like scissors and nail clippers. How do guys who don't carry a knife handle broken nails, it must be jutht awful.

my Dada gave me a lil Swiss army knive and yes, is good. It comes in useful when my large bedroom fire door is not closing right and I need to make it close bc what I do in my room is private

i do not like weapons, i used to have a bunch of guns but i didn't like the way i looked at them and i knew time would eventually find a way to put them in my mouth so i sold them to my roommate and bought a pug who only gets in my mouth sometimes on accident but eyyyy I don't mind :)

I got drunk on beer and found a cool store with many knifes and tasers and pep sprays and my friend bought a brass knuckle taser thing and named it Electric Justice but me? well let me tell you I only got a dumb egyptian sword cane for when i go to the mall. still embarrassed by this bad investment

I can't deny a knife or multitool might be useful to carry, but I've yet to need one a single time outside of the house after 38 years, so iunno.

i carry a buck knife and use it every day. also have a leatherman that i don't carry all the time but usually regret when i don't. i work in construction though so i guess if you're an it troll that hasn't seen the sun in 38 years your life experience might be different.

i hate razor blades because fuckin painters leave them all over everything and they get rained on and rust and stain so no i don't carry a razor blade instead of a knife

Mmmm,
You smell like Lysol Wipes.
There are probably two or three times a week where having a pocket knife would be mildly handy. But then I remember that I have keys. Keys are like natures tiny saws.


Ahhhh! when I was really little I woke up in the living room and the uncut version of this was playing on Chiller Theater. The one where it chops up the Gyaos bird monster and cuts of Gamera's arm and green blood is hosing the landscape. I was screaming because I thought it was on the news, and my mom ran in saying "It's not real". That freaked me out more because clearly she was lying since I could see it happening right there on TV. That goofy guy in a rubber suit still weirds me out a little to this day.

get one of these they own and are cheap enough that it doesn't matter if you lose it or gently caress it up

I still own this from when I was 14 or so, so its over 20 years old now. Still has no rust on it, but mine doesnt have the new cheap and crappy see through red plastic they use these days:



I take it camping with me but no way am I carrying it day to day because :britain:

It is useful as gently caress even just around the house though.

Even comes with a toothpick and tweezers so I can maintain my non-existant beauty regime in a tent.
