I found the below article on the site "The Art of Manliness"


What I found most interesting was not that the article was riveting, nor 100% accurate, but rather that it flatly stated that ever man should carry a pocket knife, sighting being prepared as one of the reasons.

It is nice to see that it is recommended, or encouraged, that a well mannered gentleman should be prepared.
