AKnife For "Suit-Wear": Do You Have One?

[Alberta Ed]

Kept one sports jacket when I retired, goes well with my Sebbie 21.

I don't want to be a jerk about this . . .lots of really good looking and finely crafted knives on display here.

And so, in the spirit of sharing information:

But I don't think the word , "gentleman knife" applies. A gentleman knife is recognizable as representing something, be it a lifestyle, such as a Gold Rolex, a large cigar or long cigarette holder.

But is it iconic?

 

[BigMoney]

Sometimes I’ll rock the jeans and jacket. I have a kissing crane stiletto I will carry.

 

[Valkyr]

Unfortunately I cannot typically carry a blade with me when I am wearing a suit due to a non permissive environment.

When I can carry a blade in a suit or half dress (quasi formal ish) it would either be one of my nicer but functional folders or the small lockback I inherited after my Grandfather passed. Basically a single blade very low profile slipjoint.

 

[Trawlerman]

Haven’t worn a suit in eons, but usually in polite company I’ll throw my SAK Cadet in my watch pocket.

that you wearing the Canadian tuxedo?

 

[knarfeng]

Haven't worn a suit (matching jacket and pants) since my wedding about 40 years ago. Haven't owned a formal type sportcoat for a couple of decades.

But if I did, I'd be carrying this Boker serpentine jack in 440C and ebony:

My fashion headquarters is Tractor Supply. I don't own a suit. Or a tie, or a sport coat. Dress up for me is a pair of khakis, and a dress shirt. A Sebenza goes well with that.

 

[HexY3co]

I use my CRK Inkosi when I wear my winter shorts. That's the closest I get to a suit.

Still in a box since I moved out the ex wife's house, but a boker urban trapper is my go to; fits like a pen in the inside jacket pocket, very little weight so causes no bunching whatsoever

 

[LimpCroissant]

I got me a few knives that I guess are pretty gentlemanly. I aint no gentleman though. At least don't tell nobody I am.

And my one and only William Henry here. I've been admiring them for many years though.

 

[Drop bear]

My reason for wearing a suit would pretty much be a social event. So I tacke a knife ife that does social event stuff.

So a sak. Tracker? in wood in a sheath.

 

[eveled]

I bought an Al Mar folding knife to go with my tuxedo when I got married a long time ago. Very thin and light. The Micarta scales are the frame.

How "non-permissive" is that suit-wearing environment?

a courtroom or school . . .or what?

 

[Ikhnaton]

If the day comes that I'd have or wanted to wear a suit, I'd probably still carry my Sage 5 or my Civivi Elementum. Luckily, I don't wear a suit often, last time was at my wedding three years ago and I wasn't into folding knives back then so I didn't even bring a knife. And I don't foresee any event which would force me to wear a suit, lucky for me, so the Elementum stays in the knife box and the Sage gets all the love

If I'm suiting up, then I'm going with the MoP.

 

[DMG]

I also have a black alox spartan or similar that looks great and sometimes goes in the pocket for dressed up stuff.
