    California knife laws

    attaching a knife to backpack questions

    After my 1st run in with a set of shady guys looking to fuck someone up at any provocation, I want to attach a flatblade to my pack in a way so that it's between my back and my pack.

    Knife or Multi tool, what do you carry on your belt, or in your pack?

    I've got a belt folding knife and some tools I've collected for various reasons in my back pack. I'd like to lose the weight and get a multi tool that is good enough. I'm thinking about a Stanley? It's cheep enough and good enough.? Not sure. Ideas??

    Photos DIY Leather Knife Sheath

    Hey ya'll, the other day I decided to make a new sheath for my 7" blade I've had since I was 4. The old one is plastic, a bit heavy, and just downright cheesy. I had some spare leather so creativity got the better of me.... For reinforcement, and protection from the knife cutting through...
