Would you slit an attacker's throat?

I think I could and say I could, but hope I never have to find out! I carry a pocket knife every day and use it several times a day. If I'm working I carry a small fixed blade as well. If I'm not working, I have a pistol of some sort on me. I don't buy into having a 'fighting knife' that you never use. I feel better carrying a knife I draw and cut with several times a day. Even though it may not have the sharpest edge or the best design for slashing a bad guy, I feel that I'll be better able to use it if need be.
I think if you have to get into a life and death fight, and honestly, once you leave your teenage or early twenties, I think (with my lifestyle anyways) that any fight I will get into is a life and death fight, you have to be ready to do whatever it takes to come out on top. If that takes turning the bad guy into stew meat, so be it!
