I tend to carry my folding knives as tools not weapons, but I certainly wouldnt hesitate to use one as a weapon to save myself. I usually have a fodler in my front strong side pocket, and one in the rear weak side pocket. I envision a knife as more of a get off me now type of weapon, to buy time to draw my primary or secondary handgun. Ive never had knife training outside of the basic training bayonet assault course (I hardly think it counts either), but have had training in firearms, which makes me consider the guns the first choice. On the other hand, if someone catchs me by surprise, Ill be using everything from the cup of coffee in my hands, to a 2x4 on the ground, to a folder or fixed blade on me if its neccessary to buy myself time, or defeat a adversity
