Have you ever had a pocket knife that was perfect in almost every way? One that stays very sharp, won't break when you need it most and has a lock that is super strong.
So what could possibly be wrong with a pocket knife that is so wonderful? IT'S TOO BIG! In today's day and age, we are all obsessed with size.
We want the biggest screen TV, the most ENORMOUS house, and the biggest biceps on the planet.
Why wouldn't you want to have the biggest knife in your pocket on a daily basis? Here are 4 reasons to buy small pocket knives: 1.
The next time that you're driving and you see flashing blue and red lights coming from behind, you'll be glad if your pocket knife is of legal size.
Aside from being legal, small pocket knives just look less intimidating or harmful than their larger counterparts.
This is why police officers will usually not hassle you for carrying a small pocket knife.
2.
Do you like your pants? Treat them well! If you carry a large pocket knife in your pants everyday for a while, chances are that your pockets will be torn to shreds from the constant wear and tear that a heavier knife brings.
Small pocket knives are easier on your pant pockets and allow you to get more use out of them.
3.
Small pocket knives will often have stronger locks than larger versions.
Large blades tend to give lock systems more trouble because of the added strength needed to lock a 6" blade instead of a 2-3" blade.
4.
Knives and professionalism...
Imagine that you are at a very important meeting when a VIP notices the knife clip poking out of your pocket.
If you pull out a MASSIVE, scary looking knife with a 6" blade, some people might be turned off.
Pulling out a small, sexy looking pocket knife will probably not rub them the wrong way.
