I usually carry my Ti-Lite every day in my right pocket. I have gotten a razor sharp edge on it via Arkansas stones. I really enjoy this knife as an every day carry for emergency purposes due to the materials, which would be titanium handles and an AUS 8a stilleto styled blade with only 1 edge at about 4". My question for today would be directed at people more familiar with law and law enforcement. I ponder often if this blade is a little too controversial for carry because it is a stilleto style and very pointed. What do you think? I think under my rights to protect myself I should be allowed to carry whatever knife I want (within obvious limits) however I would like to hear what people think about this knife and carrying. I also EDC my Benchmade monochrome and a Leatherman tool on my belt. When I am running around the backwoods I also carry a SOG field pup or seal pup fixed blade on my hip. My second question is, too much gear? Some people are comfortable with more than 1, some arent. I am comfortable with a pocket knife, a back up pocket knife, a small to medium belt knife and my multi-tool. I chose my current load-out because my Cold Steel Ti-Lite cost alot of money and it has a perfect blade for poking things with enough edge for cutting. My Benchmade is razor sharp with a drop point of N690 so I can get maximum cutting power with enough point on the end and my field pup/seal pup when a fixed blade strength is uncompromisable (Aus 6 for the seal pup and Aus 8 for the field pup). Obviously a leatherman tool holds many tools which are helpful for things that knives cannot do or should not be forced to do (i.e. a screwdriver, bottle opener, pliers, etc). I also toss my Cold Steel kukri machete in the truck incase i need to chop weeds/sticks out of the way to get to the river or chop something a field knife cannot handle, however, I do not carry it on me when fiddling about unless i know i will need it. Thoughts will be greatly appreciated!
