What's the dumbest question someone has asked you about a knife? I'm starting this thread for comedic relief for all of us, so sit back, and tell your stories. I'll start.

I had a friend swear up and down to me that the flair on the tang of my Case Russlock was a bottle opener. After much explanation to no avail, I just had to let him believe he was right... Some people just need a darwin award... ;)
 
Why do cut your dinner with your pocket knife, to which I replied " because I know my knife is sharp "

Now I don't want to steal this thread or anything, but has a new member ever asked what the knife in the blade forums logo is ?
I know it's a fairbain sykes or v42 type dagger, but it seems like the kind of thing a new member might not know .
 
One that comes to mind is when I let some of my co-workers take a look at a Griptilian at work. When I revealed the cost, one guy said, you paid that much for this piece of plastic and metal?
 
"What do you use that for?"

So many possible answers... I was working though so I just said, "cutting things." With the condescension turned up to 11 of course.
 
Someone at work brought in a pie one Friday....just because. Out of my office I hear, where's bflying, we need a knife? I was not about to hand anyone a $300 knife from my pocket. So I grab a cheapie from my desk that I had just brought from home after sharpening. A while while later it's brought back by someone with a blood soaked paper towel wrapped around their hand. The only comment....There is no reason in the world to have a knife THAT sharp! I smiled.

Another time someone else asked if I had a knife on me to cut open a package. My reply, of course, don't you? When I pull and flip it open, I hear....Who are you planning to kill?

I got a "Are you planning on killing someone" comment from one of my co-workers before. Apparently the Benchmade Contego surprised them a little bit.
