My question really is just what are people using them for in London? Opening particularly tricky Pret wraps? On-the-go beard trimming?

90% of the use of mine is opening/breaking down boxes and cutting/trimming zip ties. I do this regularly enough that getting a knife made sense to me becuase i was fed up with constantly using my keys or trying to find a pair of sissors.
I also specifically bought a knife that had a disposable blade so If I went out after work or something and forgot it was in my pocket, I could throw the blade away and not worry about being in trouble.I dont carry it at all at weekends either, just to and from work every day.
@edmundro I dont have a tool bag, hence why it lives in my pocket, along with my torch and pen. I made note of things I needed to use regularly, and bought small ones to put in my pockets. I dont think its that mad really. If i needed screwdrivers often I'd probably get a small one with changable tips I could pocket too, or a leatherman maybe.
the only reason I carry anything in my pockets is becuase I use it enough to warrent it being there. -
Why does anyone do anything?

I have carried a knife daily for several years, and aways will. I have no intention of using it for self protection, or as an offensive weapon. Normally it is on a leatherman tool, but I also have a tiny little sheffield folding knife. I don't know what the fuss is about, it is people using them as stabbing tools that can do one.
Knives are tools.
