Hmmm, didn't want one of those ESEE knives until I saw this

Can I even carry a knife if I'm 17? And I really cant think of many uses...

Depending on your county, you're ok.

Alameda county says you can carry one that locks under 3" if you're a minor.

Google tells me Santa Clara county doesnt have any restrictions. Anything legal is legal for minors also. that being said. I still dont have a use. other than it looks kinda cool.

A friend of mine under the age of 17 who goes to a San Jose high school, which resides in Santa Clara county, said he was suspended from school for carrying this carabiner which has a 3" blade. I don't know if there are differences between school policies and county law, but the link says one must be +18 to purchase it.

..

Just can't be concealed.

Schools are an instant no-no for minors.


My EDC knife has to abide by all Alameda county, Santa Clara county, San Jose city, and San Jose State University policies.

Which adds up to, non fixed, locking, non assisted opening, can't have a glass breaker (unless you're in the first response field), and must be under 3.95".

Tore a hole in the taint of my boxes for the third time from swinging my leg over my saddle one too many times. >_> Need more stretchy boxers.

This is why you should swing your leg over your bars instead :D

I grab my handlebars, lift my front wheel up, put the seat post between my leg, and let down the front wheel.

Thats another problem. Pretty much my entire existence right now is school and bieks. I'll probably get one when I'm older, but its just not worth the money right now. I would rather have bike parts

today I...

Awesome!

youd be surprised how many times you can use a knife in a day, and im not just talkin about shankin fools
pretty much the most handy tool you can have

nice. my go to's right now are my 10" Global and a pre-war Sabatier, but i keep looking at the semi-custom patterned Japanese offerings.

ever cook with a true chisel grind?

the coffee mug thing is just for touchups on pocket knives. i keep a set of waterstones, a ceramic rod and a steel in the kitchen. i was a wanna-be chef, when i used to party with the CIA crew....

15th wedding anniversary today. still awesome after all these years. couldn't have done it without her.

At any rate I feel less goofy about having ridden to iaido practice with the iaito strapped to my back now.

edit: Congratulations RGNY. Life is better with a good woman.

congrats!

Nice work. :thumb:

Aside: did you ever find your concor? I need another flite.

Watching the Paterek video on building racks and stems. Getting excited to start building stuff.

Congrats, RGNY. :thumb:

Congratulations RGNY !!!!

Man thats a long time. With how short marriages generally are now days, y'all are givin me a little hope for the world. Grats man!

Today I'm going to see BRAID and Owen play an acoustic show. So stoked.

thanks everyone.

our secrets for a happy marriage: talk! and, don't marry someone thinking you can change them later. last five i saw go down the tubes were just that. "oh, i'll change him/her". never.

quick 4mi walk with the dog. now some lunch before going for a ride in anticipation of a larger than normal dinner at what passes for an upscale restaurant here. although, i'm told they have Dogfish 90 on tap. if there's also a good Irish singlemalt, we have a problem.
