It's nice for stake-and-weave systems. You can wear it on your pinkie,
leaving all your fingers available for other work, like tying off. Then you
just twist your hand to bring the blade against the twine, and pull, slicing
it. Very convenient. The only other use I thought of had to do with
Halloween. ";>)
