apperciate it hamburg, i always have a pocket knif eon me but its one on that is very practical unless the mugger stands there and waits for me to get it out, the boot knif is my grandfathers old on he got somewhere yrs ago. I can pull that pretty fast (its saved my butt before on a groundhog that came at me in the barn one day turns out he had rabies) I just like to be able to have a small firarm when im gonna be alone passing thru almost deserted areas where it would be a long run to get to safty or even back to the truck.
