You wouldn’t carry knives very often in daily life unless you are a personal chef or something. So, most of you do not know what to do with it when you get to carry knives. As knives have blades, they have to be covered with stab-proof materials for safety. Also, knives are kind of bulky. It would bother you even more if you have to carry multiple knives, not just one.
Chef apprentices or students of cooking school often have opportunities to carry their own knives to home, work, and school. Those people would know how troublesome carrying knives is.
