While looking for other knife-related things, ran across this story about the usefulness of having a knife on one's person. Very interesting read.

Wonder if this guy invested in a new sheath after this?

Well, it was a heckuva great story. I think a pistol might have served him a little better, if it had been powerful enough...but its good he had that knife instead of nothing.
