Alright. Yesterday I was out at lunch with my co-workers and as I was sitting there eating I noticed a guy with a knife clipped to his pocket. No big deal, really. It's always good to notice that kind of thing, sort of an FYI.
Then he turned around and I saw that he had another knife in his other pocket.
Was this guy overdoing it?
It is obviously a better idea having two knives on your person than one knife. From a tactical standpoint, it is always advantageous to have a backup knife, or a BUG.
But as an average civilian citizen, is there a point that is going too far? If that individual was carrying two knives and a Kimber with two extra mags, would that be overdoing it? Or would that be preparedness?
With all this talk of carrying stuff like cane swords, sai, flashbangs, and belt buckle knives, people start to sound like mall ninjas at best. At worst, they sound like members of a terrorist cell. This can be a liability issue as well.
Personally, I feel that the defensive tools I carry daily and legally are adequate and are not over-the-top.
So, how much do you believe is too much?
