DPT--Pocket Knife

One must-have tool for every reasonably prepared person is a good pocket knife. It used to be an almost right of passage--as soon as a child reached a certain age, dad would bestow upon them a pocket knife; this was a big deal and a big responsibility. These days, the very mention of a knife in many settings (schools, on an airplane) sends people into a dither. Ridiculousness aside, carrying a good knife is important. Whether you use it to open a box, cut up an apple, whittle a piece of wood or protect yourself, you want to get yourself a good quality, properly sized knife that you will feel comfortable carrying at all times.
