If you want to carry a weapon you carry a gun.

I have to agree. I always carry a knife.

I actually know people who prefer a knife over a gun, they are by no means desperate

Usually a Benchmade 806 Axis or S&W SWMP1BS knife and either Kimber UltraCDP or Glock 27. I prefer to bring a handgun to a fight if I can't steer clear of it beforehand..

Yes I am a CCW holder.

3-blade Uncle Henry. It has always been enough knife to cut up any apple I have gone up against.

It's against the law to carry either a knife or gun over here! Doesn't stop an increasing amount of young guys getting shot mainly teenagers over gang wars. An 18yr old was stabbed to death in Oxford st in the heart of Londons shopping area on the Monday. His gang and a rivale gang were arguing over who was going to steal trainers from a store! It's a mad world!

Buck 110, it comes in handy most every day. I never take it off my belt, even when I cross into Canada.

I checked Oklahoma law. They have a long list of types of knives that cannot be carried. Regardless of having a CCW permit or not. The list covers pretty much anything with a blade except for small pocket knives. So, with my CCW permit I can carry a loaded firearm but I can't carry a knife?
