Get a Wustof or a high-end Henckels or Cutco. The Cutco one is probably going to be the best bang for your buck knife, but for insanely high quality get Henckels or Wustof.

and take care of it.
Get one of those magnet strips and store it up there. Don't keep it in the plastic thing it comes in, if you have to keep it in a draw with other utensils, wrap it in a dish cloth.
Also, learn how to use a steel and use it to take the burs off the knife every time you cut with it, but don't try to sharpen with a steel, sharpen with a whet stone and oil, or send it off to be sharpened.
Take care of a good knife and you can keep it and use it forever.

This is true. However, if you don't feel like babying your knife then get a Cutco. Those are designed to not really be taken care of at all (yes I work for them and no I am not biased.. I love my amazing Henckels knife).
No shit. Fur and feathers called the college the other day and told us there was a brown bear sighted on campus.
Fuckin bears.
Anyway, here's mine. I carry it with me on the ambulance. Amazingly sharp and extremely capable when it comes to cutting things like seat belts. Sorry for the shitty cell-phone picture

I keep a 2 inch blade in my glove box to cut boxes and packaging and for emergencies along with a little LED flashlight and a pair of needlenose pliers. I use them all quite often.
I had a coworker who had a knife and thought it was the neatest thing to whip out whenever someone needed something to cut.
This seriously happened;
Me:Where are the box cutters?
Him about 20 feet away: Wait! I got something! (starts running over)
Me: Oh wait, here they are
He still finishes getting over to me, whips it out and offers it to me as if I wasn't holding a boxcutter in my hand.
What the eff dude?
It's a knife, I get it, I've seen them. You don't need to whip it out every chance you get like your a 13 yearold boyscout with his first pocket knife.
i have never had need for a knife when there wasnt one easily available
do not try to justify carrying a knife around as anything other than wanted to be a tough man while being scared of other people
Then you and I simply encounter very different situations. Having a knife handy is very useful. Also, you really couldn't be more wrong about the whole "tough man" thing. There is no way anyone should ever use a fucking pocket knife in a fight. I know either I'd either get stabbed by my own knife or by the douche-bag's butterfly knife that he has stowed away for filleting heroes.

What if you need to open a box in the middle of no where.
Why would you have a box out there?
Besides you can just punch through it.
Me I wouldn't carry a pocket knife in my pocket. I would strap it to my head like a horn. Then people know you mean fucking business. If not, a good ol' goring will set them straight.
Hahaha, no you don't. I just came back from home Depot and my friend who worked there asked to borrow one of my keys that I don't use for work. It's like a backup locker key to some locker or something but every manager has it. Yeah, he sharped it flat and the fucker is sharp as fuck. There is no doubt that this thing could slash a fucker good. It's got a long handle too. I wasn't going to give it to him because I knew he couldn't be trusted with any of my items, but this is awesome.

using a knife in a fight is assault with a deadly weapon but unless you're really skilled won't do you much good
and is unwise

sometimes I get attacked and I gotta cut off their heads and be the one
I love that whole scene.
this is also what I thought.
But I suppose he meant

I have used my knife 99 million times at work and around when I needed a knife
I have never used it to stab a person nor to threaten to stab a person nor to whip it out and say "dude check out this knife"
sometimes you just need a knife, dudes

They still do, but at least I have a knife.
