I saw a TV program on African use of a flint sliver. It was about the size of a quarter. Since there were no pockets in a loin cloth, it was carried pressed against the abdomen by the loin cloth string.
It was used for a multitude of purposes including the dressing and prep of an antelope. The sliver was sharp as a razor and cut through what the owner desired.
While diving in a Florida spring, I found on the bottom a small Gerber lock back. It was only about an inch or so. It served my purpose and didn’t wear holes in my jean pocket. I lost it and Gerber quit making oe that small.

Ive carried a Barlow knife my whole long life. Going out without it would be like going out without my wallet, or my cell phone. Growing up in the fifties every kid I knew, at least the male ones, had a knife. It was not a weapon, just an accessory, or maybe a tool is better. Just what you did.
