Folding knives? Did somebody say, "folding knives?" Yep, I definitely have a few.

Now, to answer ISCS Yoda's questions...
Do I carry a knife everyday? You bet your bobsled I do! I've carried one everyday since I was six years old. That was sixty years ago. As a result, I've accumulated quite a few of 'em over the years.
What kind of knife? Usually a Case Trapper.
How large? Two 3-inch blades...a clip blade and a spey blade.
How do I carry it? It rides in the left front pocket of my Wranglers.
I also carry a Buck 110 on my belt. I use these knives everyday from everything to cutting the string on hay bales to opening feed sacks to opening my mail. I don't know what I'd do without a good knife on me.

I feel so strongly about the importance of having a good pocket knife on you that I've made it a tradition to give everyone of my 14 grandchildren a pocket knife on their seventh birthday. I've already given seven of them and our eighth grandchild will be receiving his Case stockman's knife on the 25th of this month. My grandfather gave me my first pocket knife when I was around that age. I can't think of a better way to tell a kid that you trust him.
