A pocket knife is a tool.

Certainly it can be used as a weapon. So can a hammer, or a wrench.

I carry a knife with me all of the time, and have used it thousands of times opening packages, cutting lines , skinning electric connections, I would feel naked without it.

Funny thing is I could probably walk naked through New York with out a problem, but I cannot carry a knife.

So stupid. I work with people who know about a dozen different ways to kill you with a paper clip.

Try walking around in NYC naked with a knife. If you look artsy enough and tell them you work for the NYT no one will even notice.
