Knives in vehicles

**Ningram86** · 21-10-2011, 08:55

Morning gentlemen

Just a "matter of interest" thread: Do any of you guys keep dedicated knifes in your vehicles for vehicle/personal defense? If you do, how many and/or where? Im not expecting anyone to give out any info which they feel might compromise OPSEC.

This is what I permanently keep clipped next to my seatbelt "release button" (in the open position as in the pic).

Back in the States, I keep a 2 1/2" front-loader on me pretty much at all times. A 5" semi-serrated fixed blade is in the center console of my Dakota. There's a rescue knife in the 1st aid/survival kit I keep under the back seat. I was just issued a Leatherman over here that I can keep. I'll probably slap that in the glove box when I get back. You guys do call them glove boxes, right?

Glove box is European we call then a cubihole. Not sure on the spelling though.

I keep a Leatherman and some fixed blades and folders in my vehicle.

Think it's cubbyhole?

Cubby Hole and imo it is British....

Glove Box is American...

In Souf Effrican it has now been corrupted to "cabyel".

Come to think of it, I should probably move the rescue knife in to the cubby-hole/cabyel/glove box/perfect place to stash weapons... for better access.

i must get me a rescue knife/tool. My bakkie seat covers have plenty pouches and the kangaroo one in front will be best. (i use the side ones for food :))

These are cool. Its what I keep. All business, to the point. Go through a strap like tissue paper as long as you don't use it for other stuff. Benchmade also makes one w/a bottle opener on it.

I got an axe in the boot a 12cm dagger next to my seat in the door and a small folder one in the glove box, with a panga under the front seat and my asp batton between my seat and saftybelt clip, and a good old knop Kirrie on the back seat, this does not include my ka-bar what I carry on me. Lol now that I read it, it sounds crazy haha
