What if she had noticed my Sig? What should I have done?

Someone on here posted the one I now use... it's a "thoracic perforator" and I'd prefer not to talk about it :mrgreen:

Did she just see the clip, or do you carry your knife with the clip inside your pocket and the knife exposed? I've seen a few people carry their knives that way, and it always struck me as odd.

Just the clip. Never seen it wore any other way. This is gonna sound weird, but I would actually like to have the clip match my slacks. When I wear black slacks, always gotta have a black clip. If I wear khakis...they dont make a khaki clip. I am in Dr offices all day. I try to be discreet when I can.

It was weird that she considered my pocket knife a weapon...

Someone asked me what mine was for today, and my response was "Cleaning my nails and opening packages mostly." Though I'm currently at school and can't carry in MA, so it gets a bit of a promotion while I'm here.

If someone sees a lump under a shirt, and asks what it is, call it a medical device. People normally don't get too nosy about medical issues.

If you want a good sounding cover, call it an insulin pump.

If you want to have fun with it, say "Its a medical device. I have to wear my L.I.D. all the time".

L.I.D.=Lead Injection Device :biggrinjester:

No. I don't think that is ever necessary. Your license is none of their business.

She's cute AND complimented your "nice slacks"? She was hinting at something other than your Sig
