Meh, they're welcome to argue the point. If you'd like to make a case, feel free. I'm troubled because I have problems with anyone that wants to carry a knife, gun, or any other weapon-type tool for the express purpose that it's cool and will impress his friends. I tend to be serious about such things as knives and guns, call me crazy.

first, you must agree, that your statement is flawed from the start..."for no apparent purpose". you need to find the purpose before you can begin to properly have any "trouble".

I must agree? Why, no, I don't have to. The knife in question is something I find absolutely silly, and have stated the reasons why in an earlier post.

What does it matter why I care? You aren't even arguing against my opinion, you are arguing against my right to hold said opinion. I'm sorry that my opinion does not meet to some vague standard that you have failed to explain, but it is my opinion and I shall retain it.

Good for you. I too have expensive guns and knives. There is a difference in a knife bought for a specific purpose, vis a vis the example of a Spyderco Police model purchased because it fits his hands, the custom folders carried by an apprentice smith, and a goofy over-large combat knife with a hinge carried by someone what merely wants a knife that's "Rad" or whatever.
