So, here's a question - I'm looking at either a Tenacious, Delica or Endura. I plan to carry this at work for all sorts of things - cutting open boxes, slicing fiber cables (computer stuff - they have to be cut when we dispose of them, don't ask), etc. So, a work knife that's going to get used... however, it would also be nice if it were to function outside of work as a self-defense knife, too. It has to be big enough to cover both eventualities while being small enough not to attract a ton of notice at work or running afoul of the various authorities in Maryland.
This is my first knife purchase of this type, so I haven't any real experience to draw on. I *think* I want a combo edge, since I think the serrated portion of the blade would be better for slicing fiber. I guess I'm afraid of going too small or too large, but I'm not sure what "too small" means given my intended usage or what "too large" is for the purposes of not making the folks at work think I'm toting a machete around. Any advice is welcome.
