I open my packages at home, mostly using a scissor. If I open packages at work, they provide a box cutter to do it. There's zero reason for 99% of people in a urban setting to walk around with a knife.
There's even less reason for the office workers over at r/EDC cosplaying batman daydreaming about some hostage situation and they finally get to use their backup multi-tool strapped to their ankle to undo the screws on a went and crawl out like they're Lethal Weapon.
Dork.
I will never understand this attitude. I wouldn't anymore leave the house without a pocket knife than I'd leave without pants and having the capabilities that a leatherman or even just a basic knife offers has been consistently beneficial.
