womens pocket knife

As women, we are told time and again to wait for the knight in shining armor to come and rescue us. This mentality means most of us are rendered unskilled in the department of protecting ourselves from trials and tribulations of everyday life. 

Now it's time to unlearn the sexist rhetoric and our faith in a good old women's pocket knife because trust me, no knight can beat this blade no matter how shiny his armor is.

Now that we have established to break the glass ceiling and learn to protect ourselves, we need to think about how to achieve that without losing out on our femininity. Turns out, a woman's pocket knife can not only be your self defense tool but bring much needed eye candy to your purse, pocket or makeup kit.

So how to go about choosing the perfect women's pocket knife? Well, there are some pointers.

How Women's Pocket Knife Differs From That of Men's?

Agree to disagree, but while women and men are equal as intellectual beings, their preferences, body types and strengths differ from one another. 

That doesn't mean women are any lesser, it's just that women's pocket knives are designed keeping certain things in mind that help women carry their self defense weapons better. Let's look at some variables that must be kept in mind while buying your folding knives.


Weight 

It goes without saying but women generally prefer carrying lightweight stuff in their hands, pockets or bags. While men like a big bulky knife for god knows what reasons, women's pocket knife has to be as light as possible. Half an ounce is a pretty good poundage while looking for your everyday carry knife.

Size 

Women's hands are biologically smaller and more delicate than that of men's. This means it is better to buy yourself (give your female friends if you are a man reading this) a smaller women's pocket knife. 

While most folding knives are designed to fit into pockets, even women's pockets are smaller. So buy something that is even smaller than an average knife size. Something less than 4" when fully closed in ideal.

Shape

Nook likes a thick broad blade as their everyday carry. But women's pocket knives need especially to be slimmer, thinner and more slender. Women love slenderness and delicacy so blades such as a spear point and sheep's foot are ideal buys for a pocket knife that looks more feminine yet is sharp and effective for cutting and stabbing.

Color

Women love a whopping color even for their self defense weapons. So a pink pocket knife or a rainbow blade are ideal as women's pocket knives. Try to avoid boring camo handles or plain black covers. 

Add some pop to your everyday carry knives with bedazzling color schemes and gold finishes. You will be more inclined to carry a weapon if it looks inviting and non threatening. 

Utility

As women, we are known for our resourcefulness and practicality. We look for the same in our everyday carry weapons. So, a woman's pocket knife need not be just a knife. 

It would be best if it has a utility value beyond just being a self defense weapon. There are many multi purpose knives out there and those are the ones that will attract you more when buying a folding knife.
