I'm truly sorry for your loss. There is something remarkable about having something once posessed by a loved one.
I have my grandpa's pocketknife, nothing fancy, just a Schrade Old Timer T80. It came to me through my brother after grandpa died. As the oldest grandchild, I inherited a silver dollar grandpa carried every single day of his life, since his own father gave it to him for his 8th birthday. My brother really wanted it, so I gave it away to him, though it was a hard thing to do. A few weeks later Grandpa's knife showed up in the mail as a thank you from my brother.
I carry that knife every Sunday for gentle use. It's wonderful to have a physical connection that binds me to Grandpa each time I use it, and you can bet it is my sharpest, highest polished edge! I hope your Primble does the same for you.
