my coworkers look at me funny because I carry a Gerber, my pocket knife, AND a small defensive blade/utility blade. The only reason I don't carry my karambit every day on my weak side is my company has a rule "no weapons allowed" on the premises. I can get away with the utility knife spiel, but that would be harder to swallow with the karambit. Point being, I have at least 8 cutting tools if you count every one in the Gerber, every day, all day, 365. I will never ever leave my house without a blade of some sort, for reasons like this.
