Serious knife abuse? Humorous knife abuse?

For my PRIMARY knife, that I reach for first I rotate between about 20 knives depending on my mood. It could be anything from a $15 CRKT Mirage to a Graphic Sebenza.

Along with that, I ALWAYS carry an Emerson Commander for tough or distasteful jobs like scraping or prying or chopping or cutting really tough materials. It can take it and I feel good about using that particular knife hard while I might regret using whatever "primary" knife I'm carring for such jobs.
 
For security purposes, I once clipped a folder inside my underwear. I would not do this again, nor suggest that anyone else try it.

Depends where you clip it, doesn't it? Also, nothing from Extrema Ratio or the folders from Strider should be clipped inside your underoos.
 
John Larsen, writing for Tactical Knives magazine once indicated that while in Viet Nam (I think) he tied a SAK on a nylon cord, tied the other end to his pants belt, and dropped the knife inside his pants! The idea was that if captured, perhaps it would go unnoticed and could be used to escape. Combat uniforms are a little "roomy" in the seat and crotch so I bet that thing was always banging around.

If I clipped my Sebenza to the waistband on my underwear, I'd have to tie a lanyard on it also so I could have something to pull it out of my "roll"! OK, it ain't that bad, but even a relatively light knife could pull your diggers down a bit more than you'd want. Enough from me on that!

I think that we can all agree that sticking a knife down one's pants and telling others about it has to be some sort of abuse.
