Yes. But urban means urban SURVIVAL. I don't know if I'd want to depend on a YK to pry me in or out of a building following a magnitude 8.0 earthquake! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" />
It's not likely you would break it. The DF would be a better choice however,
The carring of a fixed blade of any length concealed on or about your person I believe is still a felony in California.
So unless your at home when the "Big one" hits........
I actually think the DF is the best choice but The YK would be eaiser to explain given todays environment.
In California probably best to choose a heavy duty folder since the laws/police are a bit more lenient towards them.
