Whenever we are all out they make fun of me for always having multiple knives on me, but it does not stop them from constantly wanting to borrow one...
This has been exactly my experience as well. I've brought knives on school camping trips before (my school is very chill about that, on camping trips at least) and people look at me weird and get freaked out, but I also get requests to borrow it all the time. my SOP is to bring a knife for use and a SAK for lending
