There was a similar incident here in SOCAL which I used to rationalize keeping an almost fully serrated Spyderco Rescue in my truck console along with a Benchmade Rescue Hook.

As for "ALWAYS. EVERYWHERE" -- Yes. Sitting here w/no shirt & no shoes, but I have a locking folder clipped in the pocket of my khaki shorts.
