What knife did you carry on your wedding day?

Maybe as a guest, but carrying knife in wedding doesn't sound that harmonic. Weddings are supposed to be happy and peaceful and carrying a knife would just honestly be weird.

I am the very walking definition of harmony, happiness and peace. And I always carry a knife.

I always carry a knife. I always carry a knife. I always carry a knife. I always carry a knife. I always carry a knife. I always carry a knife. I always carry a knife. I always carry a knife. I always carry a knife. I always carry a knife. I always carry a knife. I always carry a knife. I always carry a knife. I always carry a knife. I always carry a knife. I always carry a knife.

(I just repeated it over and over to help you and others get over the notion that "carrying a knife" is a somehow dangerous or offensive act.)
 
Vic Classic SD, incidentally with the toothmarks of my favorite bloodhound on it. Over 16 years ago, and still going strong.
 
I just got married on Saturday also. I carried a Case Trapper in green jigged bone and a Vic Classic on my keys.

I also carried a Kel-Tec P3AT, but that's only because it was an outdoor wedding in a rather remote part of a state park in the area. Never leave home without a knife (or two) and a pistol, but that's just how I was raised.

Congrats to all of my fellow married men.

11 years ago I had just started getting into knives, and bought all my groomsmen little folders with LED lights in the handle. I know, :rolleyes: cheesy little knives they were. But, the were cheap, and cool. I was probably carrying one of those, as well.

I've since taken to carrying my prettiest knives at weddings, once was a BM 850 pearl. Once a McCarty Z auto with pearl and damascus, several times a Laguiole stag, or A. G. Russell damascus lockback. Last weekend it was the Spyderco Volpe and Captain that I had from a passaround.

About a month ago, I watched the groom cut the wedding cake with a full-sized machete!

I carried my Buck Adrenaline, I think its all I owned at the time. It got used alot actually, in fact, a non-knife friend said "man, I'm gonna make sure to carry a knife on my wedding day now!"

Congrats...carry whatever you normally carry, unless its really conspicuous, and then I would choose whatever your favorite inconspicuous knife is.

I think a lot of the people on these forums carry a knife like they would put on a watch or grab their wallet. It would just be a natural thing to grab since they do it everyday. I understand that it's just you're opinion, but I read your last post to be a little on the judgemental side. I also don't see how carrying knife would change one from being "happy" or "peaceful", unless the individual associates other (negative) feelings to knives.

Regardless of your opinion, I don't find it necessary to use the :rolleyes: character. It just seemed a little inconsiderate of others who don't share your view.

In regards to ignoramus' response to A.L., I must agree with ignoramus on this one...

A lot of people don't understand why I carry a knife sometimes and that includes my sheeple'ish girlfriend. The other day when a group of friend's came over (including my girl), I had just gotten out of the shower and was wearing my PJs. Well, to all their surprise I had my Kershaw ZDP-189 Leek on my PJs and was sporting it quite nonchalantly. They laughed, but, I suppose I get the final laugh everytime they ask me, "Hey Ryan, you have your knife on you?" as they seem to do quite often...

Also, to agree also with the majority of the forum, it's a tool, and quite a useful one at that. Not something to be feared, as my girlfriend is afraid of me just opening my Leek because it's assisted, it "snaps open" and she's afraid I might hurt myself. HA... I've grown up with knives and my dad started collecting one for me each year since I was born (mostly German, and not my taste). But, the ones I carry now I respect as most of you probably do yours. I'm glad I'm addicted now... because when I can pass a knife onto my son at his wedding, that will put a big smile on my face.

Cheers again!

Please don't understand me wrong. I didn't say that I think knife is "weapon only". I carry knife too. Im just saying that it wouldn't be that necessary in weddings.

But however, do as you please. :) No more argument is necessary.

yes because nobody opens gifts on their wedding day or cards or could possibly need to cut something. Why not have it?
 
I had a western coleman 2 blade lock back,one blade plain edge and the second blade was a serrated edge, o'course this was 15yrs ago and the knife has been lost or borrowed never to return , have not seen it or one similiar in a long time and i check the auction sites ,similiar but not the same model. it was a great knife.
 
Congrats! I carried a Bark River Mikro Canadian prototype in kydex clipped to the waistband of my swimsuit during my sister's wedding on the OBX last week. I was the best man, and she didn't give me any crap for having it.

It was even used to open presents! She and my BIL also gave me a custom J. Rossi knife and fork set as a groomsman's gift. I was blown away. :D

I carry a knife (particularly my SAK) to solve problems quickly--so that I don't have to go hunting for a tool. I can think of no day where it would be more important for me to solve a problem quickly than on my wedding day. My bride expected me and depended on me to take care of emergencies (or urgencies) on our wedding day and would have chided me if I had left home without my knife. It would be like leaving home without a wallet.
 
Simms65, I spent 2 weeks at the OBX in early June. If I had the guts to pack up and move out of NY, that would be where I'd go!
 
Twenty five years ago, I carried a Gerber Lock back (they were decent at that time). My gift to my groom's men were various SAKs.

I carried a Spyderco Police tucked into my waistband. I gave all of my groomsmen Stainless Spyderco Delicas with their initials engraved in them.

Vic Classic. Kept my sword hand free just in case I needed it to fend off any competition.;)
