a tanto with combo serration. i had a crkt KISS folder that was perfect for warehouse work.
I also had a cold steel spike that i sometimes carried when I couldnt find my leatherman, didnt use it for much besides food though

Just get a box cutter.

You can get a spyderco tenacious for about $30 at wallmart. They are solid knives and will feel much better than a $5 dollar store pos. Alternatively find a wallmart stocker and offer $3 for their boxcutter. Those things are great for what you want and if the blade gets dull just put in a new one.

Anytime. This anon is unironically correct >>34349147

Disposable blades are the way to go for cutting boxes and plastic ties.

There are a bunch of OSHA rules that almost require your employer to give you a box cutter with safety features. When I was younger, I saw a big box store write someone up for using their own knife at work.

This anon is correct. If your employer follows osha guidelines you will never need your knife at work.

Milwaukee's folder utility knives are quite good. Fast and easy to open one handed. Several different models, one is smaller and slimmer, others have handle storage for extra blades. More comfortable in a pocket than normal sliding blade knives.

There's no reason to have anything but disposable blades if you're cutting banding and boxes all day.

I got this thing at a PX when my normal one broke, I've never seen this knob thing though, what's it do?

20 bucks so big deal if I end up not liking it, but still I'd like a permanent folder. I guess I need to take the plunge and pick a hundred dollar one.

Not op, but Does it lock closed? I picked up something similar a while back, and it didn't have a detent to help keep it closed. It would slowly slide open every so often, so I went back to using my regular pocket knife (Spyderco Delica) as I could trust it to stay shut.

Knob at the bottom is a glass breaker, if that's what you're referring to

>>34350676
Don't touch that fucking knob, you God damn boot!

I guess this is knife general now.
I've been carrying a swiss army knife on my keychain for years now, but the spring on the pliers is kinda bent and both blades are chipped and dull. I'me looking into a multitool like a Leatherman but have no idea where to start, with all of these bells and whistles all of the different models seem so similar. Any suggestions?

>>34353448
The best advice I have is to honestly assess what tools you need to have with you and get a multitool with JUST those tools. It's easy to get in a situation where you're carrying around a dozen tools in your pocket that you never use.

Spyderco Tenacious.

Use a box knife or you are going to sharpen your pocketknife down to a toothpick.
