Utah Bob #35998 Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Yesterday, I couldn’t find my knife. Looked everywhere I could think of and no dice. I liked that little Kershaw knife. But yesterday afternoon the mailman delivered a package. A sweet Spiderco that was on sale from Blade Headquarters that l forgot I had ordered. Then this morning, I found the lost Kershaw. Call me 2 knives Bob. No, wait. I forgot I also have my Dad’s single blade Old Timer. And I always have a Swiss Army on me, like MacGyver. Call me Bob 4 Knives. Or Lucky Bob For now anyway.

Alpo Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 I have long had this habit of when I finish using a knife I stick it in my pocket. In 12th grade English one time my teacher asked me if I happened to have a pocket knife. If I did, would I fix this plug on electric wire? I kept pulling knives out of my pocket and laying them on my desk, until my Boy Scout knife (with screwdriver blade) appeared. I'm not sure how many knives I had that day, but she told me later that I had had four lying on the desk. I'm surprised I had room in my pockets for my lunch money.

Yeah, we've got that problem, too - all the knife and gun laws are written by urban politicians, who live in continual fear of being waylaid by the Jets or the Sharks. No auto openers, no switchblades, no double edged blades - on and on for almost 400 words straight with no meaningful punctuation. Bottom line, carry any kind of knife, and they can get you on something. LL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I brought along my mini Swiss Army knife and a cheap Kershaw with a 2” blade just to make sure I was legal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utah Bob #35998 Posted April 24, 2020 Author Share Posted April 24, 2020 Auto openers have been legal in Colorado since 2017 when they repealed the old prohibition of them. And amazingly, there have been no gang fights with dancing hoodlums, nor citizens mugged on dark streets by wild eyed stiletto wielding James Dean look alike teens.

Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 I carry a Kershaw Silver Spur II that I bought in 1989. It needs new scales, so one of these days I'll get around to seeing if they can accommodate me. I also have a tiny Gerber folder that I've had nearly that long and a Schrade three blade folder that I found on a baseball diamond on Okinawa in 1967. Lots of other knives around here but those three are almost always with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Four-Eyed Buck,SASS #14795 Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Most always have my Leatherman on my hip, and then there's the little folder on the wad of keys I need for getting around here. There's a few in the park truck as well, but I'm banned from that for the time being Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joke 'um Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 Have bought too many knives during this lockdown. The "thrill" of ordering a knife, tracking the shipment and, recieving the package is addictive. I'll have to try forgetting that I have ordered one some day. That sounds fun. Aaaaaaah...

Red Gauntlet , SASS 60619 Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 “Or suppose a man has several knives and loses one. Doesn’t he light a lamp, sweep the house and search carefully in every pocket until he finds it? And when he finds it, he calls his friends and neighbors together online and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost knife.’ In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.” Apologies to St. Luke....
