I am sure I am missing something..? Has it been dulled? Is it specifically a child's play-knife?

It's a trainer. Berto, that's a good idea. I was thinking about the spyderco wooden knife but this is a great idea.

Can't believe you found one for $10, that's a heck of a deal.

Good idea, I started at age 5 with a SAK. The rest is history

I've got one of the Klecker plastic folders on the way for my li'l fellah (3 y.o.) and I know he'll love it.

ahh! I went and googled it (you know like a smart guy) and now i fully understand. I will definitely be keeping an eye out to pick something like that up for my little guy. he is very interested in my knives. I am wondering how much he will take to it though, when I made him a key chain of old keys he still wanted mine or mommies the most....

$10? Damn! If your son gets bored with it, you could sell it for quite a lot more, if only for the colored scales (assuming they're undamaged from dropping or drool).

 

[bertosknives]

yes it a trainer knife when I saw $10 I said I'll take all the ones you have in stock but they only had one.

first thing I did when I got home was switched blades with my black 550. I love the red handles.

bertosknives, what a great way to instill confidence in blade handling at such an age.
