sounds like you got the perfect plan carry two knives. and you have the beater there for the "dangerous" jobs.Yeah.. I do that for some knives.. but with others, that are special to me. I still like to carry them for a few days. Get to know them, use them on the toughest of boxes at work
I always carry at least 2 knives, so if I have something that would be considered abuse that i need to do.. it goes to the beater knife. Usually a Benchmade Griptilian or a cheap SOG or Kershaw...
