I love knives, I've always carried one. I served in the Marines, if I could carry my K-Bar fighting knive everywhere, I would. However, the K-Bar is a little much for everyday use. This little bad a** Microtect is my new favorite knive. Light wieght and sharp as hell. I carry it no matter what clothes I'm wearing. It's very slim, so it's easy to access your pocket while it's clipped and hanging inside my pocket, and I have hugh hands. I went to a football game recently in Nashville, forgot to take it out of my pocket when we parked. I walked through the metal detectors, nothing. I got wanded, nothing. My girlfriend had the one I bought her in her boot. Nothing. Like I said, these knives are bad a**. I'm gonna buy more of these knives for Christmas and give them to my family and close friends. You won't regret this purchase.
