Everyone needs a katana. I like to carry mine to the grocery store. Vaulting over the butcher's counter, emitting a soul-searing "kiiiaaaa" and slicing a hanging side of beef is always good for a laugh. Those guys in the white uniforms just scatter like bowling pins. It's more concealable than the chainsaw, at any rate. The manager has asked me to shop somewhere else. I think he's just kidding, though. However, there still may be repercussions over the shuriken incident....completely not my fault, I assure you.

I keep meaning to write Christopher Lambert and asking him how the hell he managed to hide his katana under a coat. Dang immortals.

Unless I've just watched a Kurosawa flick, I usually go with the single "combat" style folder. I usually opt fo the SOG X-Ray or the Emerson CQB-7. Occasionally, the SOG Flash II gets pressed into service. Though I ususally only find myself locked in deadly struggle with mail that somebody has seen fit to tape up instead of just licking the seal like a normal person.

The SOG Trident is on my wish list as well.

I have decided to boycott Spyderco completely. I've broken two of their knives so far, and if they can't do any better than that, I don't need one. Though that karambit they've got is pretty sweet...

I'm pretty sold on the SOG stuff. Their warranty department is pretty solid. Great steel, really good price.

I do usually have another one floating around the truck somewhere, but only one on me. If the courthouse I'm in that day has a metal detector, everything stays in the truck, of course.

This does not include a hunting trip, where at least two skinners are put into service.
