been meeting with a lot of strangers to sell shoes, and it's what i always carry on me just in case


have never actually had to use it, tho, and i always wonder about how viable it'd actually be

fwiw, it's one of those bigger, sturdier ones

I mean, it's not going to save you as well as a gun or anything.

Probably better to have than nothing. Just taking it out if you had to defend yourself would probably lead to whoever is robbing you to decide you're more trouble than you're worth.

I doubt I'd be afraid of an unarmed you.

I sure as hell wouldn't wanna mess with a box cutter wielding you.

Imma say yes.

Are you being attacked by boxes?

Also meeting strangers to sell shoes sounds fucking ghetto, dude.

This.

The only risk is the box cutter blade breaking and hurting you, but it's still much better than bare hands

I guess it's better than nothing.

But if you have a box cutter, can't you at least upgrade to a nicer pocket knife?

if you're inventive enough just about anything can be used as a weapon.

Why does everyone say #2 pencil? What happened to #1 pencils?

While I'd have a far better chance of actually besting the ceman that's a damn tough call. Which kinda answers the question I guess. Lol.

Then again I might be able to take the boxer down and there's no risk of getting cut up post td. But that's a big if.

.... How da fuck did I manage that?

Better than nothing, but a real knife would be even better. Concealed Carry would be best.

Of course the main box cutter I use is issued by my job. No point to it and can barely cut cardboard.
