What is the dumbest comment someone has made about your knife?

Grrrr, I had that at my old job, "why do you need to carry that?"

I give that look of disbelief ---> :eek:

Then who comes crying when they need something cut :rolleyes:

Heaven forbid they ask me what I paid for my knife (by "they" I mean co-workers, or people that aren't familiar with my hobby and business).

I get the "that's a weapon" a lot, it's annoying but doable compared to other statements. Well, I suppose if their voice hypes up an octave and they get excessively loud and let the whole world know you have a knife by loudly saying while pointing a finger "OMG, you carry a weapon?" then that grinds my gears :grumpy:
 
The stupid things I hear the most are along the lines of "what do you need that for ?" or "What's the
point in carrying a knife ?" another good one is "What makes it worth that much ?" :rolleyes:
 
I always get "why do you carry a knife" when I've taken it out to use. It's like asking someone why they carry a cell phone after they make a call.
 
I never heard the comment but I'd imagine the one where the person at Fairleigh Dickinson saw my Swiss Soldiers Knife and went running for security was great. :rolleyes:

Another good one, while looking at a Case Sodbuster, "Where's the lock?"

Did security do anything?
 
While I was carrying my JYD IWB at work...
Him "You're gonna cut your tallywhacker off if that switchblade opens in your pants like that."
Me "Nope, I'll make for sure if anyone loses their balls it'll be you, I'd hate to see people like you polluting the gene pool."
 
I had a 3 inch folder which I was using to cut open a box and someone asked"Do you have a license for that thing"?:eek::rolleyes:
 
This is really an amusing thread. I havent even shown many people my knives usually when I show a knife its sold. I would have to say the dumbest thing people say is HOW DO YOU GLUE ON THE HANDLE??????
 
I did not make the knife i'm talking about. A friend of mine does knapped obsidian knives that I sometimes sell for him. At a show a woman took one of his knives and ran her thumb up the blade cutting it to the bone. Her comment was "Those are dangerous, you shouldn't make them sharp" ;-(((( I now lock up all the knives that "shouldn't be sharp" .
;-)

Once while with a group of friends, I pulled out my SAK Nomad to cut something, and one of the women said, "That sure is a wicked looking knife!"

What was sad, she was the wife of a police officer.

They probably would have but I threw the knife down a groundhog hole so when they got there all I had on me was a little tiny Victorinox that I keep on my key ring so I made the person that saw it look like the idiot she was.
 
i paid 2,000.00 for a knife once and then 770.00 for another.this is what i hear ALL the time
"well,what are you gonna do with it just look at it"?
