‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin: “ALWAYS carry a pocket knife.”
“ALWAYS have a pocket knife.” ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin insisted in a August 2014 YouTube interview at the WWE SummerSlam. “Do you have a pocket knife right now?” Austin asked the man holding the microphone and when the reply was “I don’t” Austin said “You have failed. Next question.”
In the video, Stone Cold is seen taking a Chris Reeve Knives Sebenza out of his pocket and fires off 3 important reasons to carry a pocket knife everyday.
The actor, producer, and retired wrestler is known to insist that men carry a pocket knife (wherever they go) on his popular podcast.
On Friday night, Stone Cold tweeted to his 3 million Twitter followers that he’s digging his latest knife purchase: Cold Steel’s New Assisted Open Swift, a knife with a 4″ blade designed by Andrew Demko. The Swift is the first knife to feature both assisted-opening and the tri-ad lock, promising to deliver the speed of a spring-assisted opening with superior lock strength. With contoured g-10 handles and a choice of satin or black DLC-coated CTS-XHP steel, the Swift fits comfortably in the new high-end of Cold Steel’s 2015 lineup. Looks like this one won’t be a catch and release for Stone Cold.
