Where can you even buy a switchblade nowadays? I haven't seen one for sale.. ever. I once saw a switch-comb that looked very intimidating until you opened it though. I bought it when I was like 9 and used it to scare people, but I'd never actually seen a switchblade before and didn't understand why they were afraid of it. It was quite embarrassing when someone finally explained... I don't think I've seen one in person ever. Don't really understand the appeal, just another part to break and it's not that much more convenient.

I use the slightly extra long machete I got at a thrift store for like $10 for hacking unruly vegetation though. Thing will slice through a sapling the size of my arm if I swing it right. A friend called it the 'banana harvester' because of it unusual length. Smaller knives are more useful for sharpening the saplings. This old military knife I got from my uncle is great for this But I'd never carry that in public, it doesn't fit in a pocket, and it was literally built as a weapon. Makes a good letter opener.

Edit: Sharpen the saplings so they're better at holding meat, which we found in a deer, which we found on the road on the way home from Walmart. shot with a gun during deer hunting season. We saw the car in front of us hit it. So it was fresh. They didn't even stop, so we figured they didn't want it.. We left a note where it landed in case they changed their mind even!

The small black knife is the sort people carry around here. Super useful for just about anything knife related. Can be used as a screwdriver or prying tool if you can ignore the sound of everyone in the room yelling 'noooo, you'll ruin the edge!' They'll be right, of course, and you'll regret it later.

Oh, and I've just noticed I've sort of spammed you with comments. I should read usernames more carefully. Sorry! Typing makes a great fidget spinner[Edit: terrible actually, super distracting endless blackhole of getnothingdone], I suppose. Bad habit, could get embarrassing. Not as embarrassing as the time dad started flicking his knife open and closed as a fidget and absentmindedly did it in walmart. Wasn't around people, fortunately.

I did the same once, as well as a pair of matches.

These days, I only bring my straight razor, but with the blades removed and right fucking next to it (I'm all out of fucks when it comes to airport security). It almost always trips an alarm, but they don't confiscate it. They do ask their supervisor if I can keep my switchblade comb.

Not the most durable solution (though if the mechanism breaks you can just disassemble it into a more basic comb)

but I seriously carry, when in need of a comb, this: https://www.amazon.com/Switchblade-Comb/dp/B004JK1NIA

It defuses tension in almost any situation and if you're already known to your co-workers as a knife guy, shows you can laugh at yourself too. Bonus if you can do a fonzi impression.
