The time it takes to decide based on having so many things to choose from
There you go Hick's law - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
When you take into account the skill sets need for overall survival-
Open Hand Combatives
Edged Weapon Skills
Impact Weapon Skills
Firearms (pistol, shotgun, rifle)
it becomes obvious that having a Leatherman in your pocket to deal with 99% of things you know you know you will face based on experience and research is more important than having a whole Craftsman Toolbox in your garage allowing you to deal with something that you could imagine happening.
Natural aggression with mindset and training to do more with less is key. Carrying a knife alone or in addition to a pistol without considering when, why and how you will use it will use up valuable time at the least and cause death at the most.- George
It depends Most of the times these days I carry a duracoated Taurus Model 85 UL in a pocket holster of my design. Since it is carried in my strong side front pocket I don't carry a primary defensive folder. In our doctrine the PDF is carried against the pocket seam in the strong side front pocket. In my back pocket is a Al Mar SERE 2000 which is my utility knife which I have no specfic plans on using for SD but would in pinch.
When carrying any pistol my primary edged weapon is my Emerson Kerambit in my reaction side front pocket. Since my primary deadly force option is my pistol the Kerambit serves to fight to it, or fight to retain it and can also be held with a gun in my hand.
Well I'm twenty. So I only carry a knife. I'm also broke, so I only carry a crappy $14 knife from wal-mart.
