Maybe a FOLDING knife is not such a good idea: https://www.kctv5.com/arizona-woman-finds-tires-slashed-and-a-severed-finger-in-her-driveway/article_cc05a9da-d593-511d-9300-a15af8a8235b.html

My last job the agency owner’s son frequently came in. One day he had a folding knife with him.

We chatted for a bit and I advised him that he should never, NEVER use a knife in a stabbing action without a bolster/guard/quillion unless his desire was to slice his hand or cut off his fingers.

i.e. ‘proper use/technique’, not that movie shit.

I carry a folding knife only for opening boxes (Gerber. POS); my kit has a 24” machete and a dagger of a brand I cannot recall.

For the record, I bought my boy a Zero Tolerance Model 0100 to take to Afghanistan and he was the envy of all others. Anyone who can find them used will score a most awesome knife (they are long discontinued).

If I was looking for a new knife, it would be ZT, but I know nothing about their new line of manual/assisted folding knives.
