I understand the "this knife is my defensive knife and I will never cut anything with it"... but I use my knife to open boxes and cut whatever needs cut. In fact, I've never had an occasion to stab or cut anyone. So When and if asked by an officer what's this knife for?... The answer is always cutting things. Infact sir I opened a box this morning with it. It most likely still has tape residue on it. I would never explain that this knife is my defensive knife. I've seen a kid arrested for a balisong and charged with CCW. He said it was for cutting drywall and it was covered in it. He explained it was a one-handed opening and closing, and he could put it back while holding the drywall. The officer still charged him and when he got to court. He gave the same excuse for having a balisong knife. As it was still covered in drywall dust the judge dismissed all the charges. Some might even say the drywall dust was cover for action... something to consider. As I said mine probably still has tape residue on it. If you think it won't cut because I opened a box or the tape residue will somehow diminish its ability to cut, you'd be wrong.

One of the best situations for having a neck knife is during a rear naked choke. If someone has you in a fully locked rear naked choke, you are at their mercy. However, with a neck knife blade sunk deep into their forearm, not only will they turn you loose quickly, but will be getting to the hospital asap to avoid bleed-out. A neck knife hanging in the center of your chest is the perfect location for retrieving your neck knife during a rear naked choke. I wish that you would demonstrate this rear naked choke defense technique in your videos. My friend is an MMA and defense trainer. He trains his students how to defend themselves from a rear naked choke using the neck knife that I gave him as a gift. Thanks for the great videos.

I totally agree. I know someone who got into a choke hold in a loading dock by a homeless guy in downtown Seattle a few years ago and now I keep 2 fixed blade knives ready to go for that possibility.

Great clip, Bravo Jason.

Sometimes when you draw IWB fast [no thumb push-off], if you do not have a good solid clip/retention, the whole sheath will come out with the blade. Piece of paracord around the belt and through holes at end of kydex sheath will prevent that. Well, put it this way. . . the sheath will come to a stop but the knife will come free. The sheath then will be hanging outside your trousers, but hey, if you need it fast and knife only, it will work. Generally better to have blade ahead of hip bone, so you don't have to twist/contort your body to access it where your shoulder can be trapped/knife and arm pinned against a wall, car, etc. . Go appendix weak side carry and your strong hand can draw cross body, or support hand in a powerful backhand sweep. Handle right below navel. Dave Holladay carry. Oh yeah, knife fights suck if they have one too.

Were I live we are only allow to conceal carry a knife with a 3 inch or less blade. And I want something a bit better then my minimalist Bowie as a defensive blade. So got the S.P.E.W. Which I have as my dedicated self defense blade. And my minimalist Bowie is now my edc knife for everyday tasks. And as I said I love that it is 20 bucks so if I have to give it to someone that might need it more then me. Or if I have to ditch it. It is not a huge lose and very easy to replace it. They sell them at my local Walmart. Still need to get a better clip for the kydex sheath the one it comes with is not that great.

Of course "shanking" gets the job done in chow lines, with 5 homies but it's never advised.
