Need your help

I always carry a 4-inch folder, also usually a fixed blade (3"-5 1/2")for emergency use, and a smaller folder (3" or so) for utility purposes. By that I mean opening packaging, breaking down boxes, cutting food, etc. I've been carrying knives of some kind since I was about six years old (not at school), and Spydercos for about three years. :)
 
1. a 4 inch folder, a 2.9 inch folder, and a 2.5 inch slipjoint.
2. work related cutting chores, general off-site utility.
3. 15
 
  1. 4" Blade
  2. Utility: Opening envelopes, boxes, cutting rope, seatbelts, boots, etc. (EMS work)
  3. Age 5, given to me by my father.

What size (blade length) knife do you normally carry?

At the moment I carry two knives routinely--a small 1.5 inch slipjoint with nail file, screwdriver and bottle opener, and a 2.7 inch one handed opener lockblade. I sometimes add a small Sebenza, 2.9 inches.

2. What do you use your knife for?

Cutting up my lunch, opening packages, cutting string and wrapping materials, opening mail, opening bottles, "Mr Fix-it" duties around the office, and manicuring my nails and cuticles.

3. At what age did you begin carrying a knife?

I can't actually remember but I've been doing so daily for at least 35 or 40 years (I am 56).

Greg

1: Usually carry a small fixed blade (Ansø Nasty Necker or Small Sheepsfoot; 1,5 - 2,5") and a SAK Recruit (2,5" I guess)

2: 99% utility, little thought of use for self defence

3: Around seven! Can't remember not having carried a knife somehow!
