Obama's EDC

#1

Post by kbrouwer »

Something was mentioned on the forum a while ago about President Obama carrying a Spyderco knife. Is this true? If so, which one?

Are you talking about this? Spyderco donated titanium fluted Natives for their gift box when they were in Co.

But I'd be shocked to find out he carries it. I guess you never know.

For a position in the country where people criticize you for your choice in breakfast pasteries I'm guessing his Native is in the White House someplace.

He sure as heck can't carry it when he goes back to Chicago! Lol!!!

Not sure what the knife laws in DC are, but probably can't carry it there either!!! :)

Any knife the President has is officially a knife I don't want.
...I have no knives I keep in a safe but there are one or two that don't leave the house...

Hopefully I'm wrong, but my guess is it's sitting buried in a warehouse somewhere full of unopened Presidential gifts.

You know... you're right. I take it back and I filled in the blank with a bunch of Charlie Brownesque symbols and exclamation points instead. I want a Native again. ;)

It was probably used to pry something open and broken in half. :)

I would doubt such a beautiful presentation piece like this will ever be carried or used to cut anything but, who knows, maybe he will use it to cut the federal budget.

Careful with this dudes - this is not a political forum and the mods have deleted threads for this type of comment in the every recent past. I believe it's against the forum rules to boot.

I would like to keep it politics-free myself as well. Spyderco is a big part of my daily fun and I don't need to think about things that bum me out.
