Does anybody have one of these card sharp knives in their wallet?

Just be aware, as handy as they are, that they are an offensive weapon, and you will be arrested and the knife siezed if caught with one.

You also end up in trouble when you forget about it and go through airport security....

Reviving an old one. My current edc + phone.

Nice scales, are they a bit thicker than standard?

Can't see the link, but I just added one of these to my wallet. Bought it because I was going to an "informal" wedding and knew I'd never find the bottle opener! I'm going to keep it. Doubt the rest of the tools would help escape the dungeon of an evil mastermind or build a plane in an emergency, but it might prove useful some day.

Tyto Dakota folder. Titanium, don't think he makes them anymore.

I keep one of those that MB posted in my first aid kit

A wee while ago, I was flying up North from Chch, got into the queue for security, checking my pockets for loose change etc and realised I still had my Gerber Paraframe clipped onto my jeans pocket!! Security lass must have noticed my look of consternation and trotted over to enquire, showed her my knife and "What do I do?" She's obviously onto it as she said "Oh no, not your Gerber, they'll take it off you!" Long story short, I nipped round the corner to the bookshop and posted it back to myself at home, then jumped back to head of queue to go through.....cor my heart rate took a while to settle after that one!

I can beat that Zedrex way home after 3 months in scrub culling stopped in Wairoa for a beer walking behind culling mate into pub saw a bulge at back of his swanndri hey ya bloody pistol yup still had his .22 pistol in a holster on his belt back to landrover and into pack naughty boy

For the last oooh, 20 odd years this has lived in my wallet for when I'm in "polite" society (cities)... where my other EDC might be frowned upon.
It has been useful on more occasions than I can recall, it's not going to do anything spectacularly well but it's given me a solution thats worked. I'm pretty sure it's been through airport security more times than I can remember, it's such a slim format I forget I'm carrying it.

I flew from Napier to Auckland to Chile a few years ago with a leatherman in the front pocket of my carry on day bag. I completely forgot it was there until a domestic flight in Chile and the guard pulled me up for it. I was gutted as it was a present from my wife and I thought it was going in the bin but he said no big deal and let me carry on! If i could have bought him a beer I would have. It went in my checked on luggage on the way home

Yes, slightly. They are also shaped a bit.

Hell, that would of taken some explaining if the wrong person noticed the bulge before you did!
