To add on about using a knife for defense that you lightly touched.
You never want to be in a knife fight. Nobody wins in a knife fight. Especially if it’s a pocket knife.
I have a bright neon orange & green bush/field/combat knife that I take with me when I go camping. It’s largely a tool for managing my camp, but I have practiced defensive fighting with it, but I am no knife fighting expert. I see it as a last-ditch effort of defense against a wild animal or human where my life is already on the line. And wearing it on my hip around camp advertises “this person is armed” to any human that has ill intent that comes across my camp during daylight hours. I’d still rather grab my walking stick for a good head bonking and sternum busting, and I would do my best to do that before pulling the knife for defensive combat use.
So, to be abundantly clear. There are no winners in a knife fight. The “winner” goes to the hospital.

In a knife fight, the winner gets to die in the ambulance.
oh, absolutely. My swiss knife serves its purpose in the kitchen or in the house. I don’t carry these things around.
