Wow. Really great responses. I have to say I'm impressed by the depth of your comments Garland- Well done!
I myself do not carry a knife. I don't think my skill level warrants it, and I don't want to take the risk that I provide my attacker with a weapon. My Step-dad trains the police though, and he keeps saying that he wants to put me through firearms training and get me a permit. I'm not sure what I think of that. So far I haven't, but he insists I take the training even if I never own a firearm. I think I would be ok with that.
I think I agree with Garland's first post. You need to know yourself, and know where you need to draw the line for the sake of living with yourself.
