I carry mine on my belt with my pager, cell phone and vpn fob and not too many have complained. I had one lady do the "ohh, thats a knife!" when I was opening a box of toner to refill the printer so her and my document would print so every now and then you get the toolphobic person (I correct those people telling them that a knife is a tool not a weapon) but overall people would rather borrow it to open their tuna than complain about it.
