Why Carry a Cheap Paring Knife on Purpose?

I carry some expensive knives, and I really do not like abusing them. Prying, scraping, opening nasty packages, cutting cardboard, and using a knife for tasks it was never really designed for can turn a beautiful EDC knife into a very expensive beater. So why not let a $1.25 or $1.88 paring knife take the abuse instead? Today we're taking a look at the universal paring knife sheath from ‪@armisknifeandtool‬ a small American family-run knife business right here in Connecticut. The concept is simple: take an inexpensive paring knife and give it a proper carry system. For travelers, the idea is to carry the empty sheath and purchase an inexpensive paring knife after arriving at your destination. For me, it gives me a cheap utility blade that can handle 90% of my everyday cutting tasks while saving my more expensive knives for the jobs where I actually need them. Always check current airline, transportation, and local knife laws before traveling or carrying any knife. 🔗 Armis Knife & Tool Company: https://armisknifeandtool.com/ 🎥 Watch the video:    • Why Carry a Cheap Paring Knife on Purpose?   🎵 Outro Music The music at the end of this video was created by me using Suno AI.
