What knife did you carry on your wedding day?

Congratulations! I gave all my groomsmen (and myself) a Benchmade Big Spender as presents the night before at the rehersal dinner. I didn't do a knife check at the ceremony but I'm pretty sure we all had them on us.

Five years later and still have the wife and the knife and plan on keeping both for a long time!

You really are a troll. You add nothing to this forum and in my opinion should be banned. Instead of adding to a thread you do everything you can to bring it to a screaching halt. Congrats on being the worlds biggest ja___ss.

Wow. You guys are touchy! Does it not occur to you that the very title of the thread is rather humorous even to a knife nut like me, and would be ridiculous to average folks? Lighten up a bit!
 
Congrats! Marriage is a great thing. I had my Benchmade 940 with me when I tied the knot. Which I unfortunately lost a couple years later, and have subsequently replaced. Still have the wife, though. Six and a half years later and counting, and no regrets!

Do a search and read some of his other posts, they pretty much all have the same theme.
 
shecky, he's not "average folks", he's a member of Bladeforums, of his own free will, and he routinely mocks the rest of us. This will frustrate many people, who don't appreciate the rhetorical slap in the face.

As a moderator, I don't feel I can have anyone on Ignore, but the rest of you can use this private banning to eliminate exactly this kind of friction.
 
Ten years ago, I went on a ski trip with my girlfriend and her sister to Lake Tahoe. After the trip, they wanted to hit the casino. I got drunk, and before I know it, I'm at the Silver Bells wedding chapel getting hitched. I had my beloved Spyderco Delica 50/50 with me. Now, my wife wants to get married in church, just a small private ceremony, you know, in the eyes of God kind of thing. I know my Delica will still be with me.
 
Congratulations and best wishes for the future!

I wore a sgian dubh given to me by my fiance. :) Made by a guy in Edinburgh.
 
I gave each of my groomsmen a matching Victorinox Tinker for a gift the night before my wedding. I had mine with me, they all had theirs. 13 years later the Tinker still gets regular carry.

rugby, please stop stakling my posts ..... you are kind of scary ....

No, all the posts certainly do NOT have the same theme as this stalker infers. Some of the post do ..... and I admit they have a tone of laughter, and they deserve it .... so lighten up ... they deserve to be laughed at ..... there is a lot more to life than posting about which knife to wear to a wedding .... are you kidding me ..... it is halarious .....

In fact, the VAST majority of my posts are very positive and assisting, and in defense of those who are worthy of being defended. And we all know about testing. Enough said.
Some posts just deserve a bit more laughter, and in MY opinion this one is in that category. Some people take themselves much too seriously.

And I have never called anyone names, or used profanity (or inferred it) as some others have done.

I realize I am a member of this forum, but you have to admit, some of these posts are well past normal. These posters are NOT being called names by me, just laughed at. If you don't they are funny, well, .........

Oh, Congrats, on your wedding, maybe a SILVER cake knife .....
Take Care,

That word routinely does NOT apply, and "the rest of US" certainly does not apply, but only in some posts which are truly hilarious. If anyone gets frustrated, they should possibly look at what they are posting. I'm sure not setting myself up as some judge, but I find these posts AMUSING. And I'm quite sure many other members also do. They read and LAUGH. I just happen to read, and respond without name calling and vulgarity. So please keep an eye out for those vulgar posts, or those who infer name calling ... OK....
These are the very types of people who portray knife owners (carrriers) as strange ... why ....well, look at the posts ....

Take Care,
JGarth
 
You guys are really knife nuts...carrying a knife to the ceremony. Oops, I forgot, I did too. Actually, in India, you don't wear regular suit/tie like here, but you wear basically a toga made of silk - no pockets or loops. So I ended up keeping my nice SAK in a backpack in the change room. I had that knife for like almost 8 years and it had been through a lot with me. Well, when I get back to my backpack after the ceremony, guess what, it was gone?

Someone had actually stolen my knife! Now, there were 2500 guests at our wedding, but you'd think with so many family members always present in the change room, that this would happen. I am almost sure it was one of my own extended distant family who would have swiped this. I believe that because I've given pretty much everyone I know and like in my family a SAK as gifts over the years.

Well, that really sucked, so I bought another smaller version, only to "surrender" it to a TSA agent a few years later. And this was even when TSA had publicly announced that they were allowing small pocket knives on board the planes....but the TSA agent in Atlanta was strict and maybe because of the way I looked (Indian with brown skin/black hair, go figure), he felt compelled to take it away...either that, or I was misinformed about the regulations. He did allow me to go back and mail it to myself, but I was boarding an international flight somewhat late because of the 2+ hour security check, and I couldn't afford the time.
 
Congratulations!

I'm not married, but I am going to a wedding today. I have on me a Benchmade Mini Rukus. In a bag that'll stay in the car, I have:
Busse Mud Skeleton Warden
Leatherman Wave
Night Ops Gladius flashlight
 
You guys have... seriously, carried a knife in wedding? :eek:

I guess a huge bowie at belt could look cool! :rolleyes:

When you carry a knife everyday anyway, why not? Are you seriously scared to carry a knife to a wedding?
 
Since in my whole life if I am wearing pants with a pocket, there is a knife in it, so it is guaranteed there was one on my wedding day. Danged if I can remember what it was, though.

Getting married was pretty emotional, the day went like a dream. The world came down to just us, and frankly, the minor details simply fell away.

Right now there is a Leatherman Core on my belt and a Micra in my watch pocket. That doesn't answer the question, but is the best I can do. :)
 
some people get too uptight. It's a pocketknife, if you have pockets a pocketknife is one of the things that goes in them. If someone is a jerk, let them be a jerk. They're only making themselves look bad.
 
Hmmm...Married three times and had a knife in my pocket each time but can't recall for the life of me what they were. The knives ..not the wives.:D
