I am in please.
Surely the most futuristic looking traditional knife is a SAK Alox?
Everyone of my generation was in love with Destiny Angel CO of the woman's fighter squadron .
Born 23 August, 2040, as the daughter of a wealthy French textile manufacturer, Juliette Marie Pontoin was reared in a Parisian convent whose name is not known. Enrolling in Rome University in Rome, Italy, she enjoyed her time there--especially the social side of it. This meant that the only degrees she earned from there were in telecommunications and weather control.
Pontoin's unusual qualifications left her at a loss when it came to possible career choices, and as a stop-gap, she joined the World Army Air Force in 2060, for which she had barely managed to graduate with sufficient credits. During this period, she met a WAAF captain by the name of Paul Metcalfe, alongside whom she served for two years.
Unfortunately for the whirlwind romance that developed, Metcalfe's father, a WAAF general officer, disapproved of it so strongly that he tried, ultimately without success, to have her cashiered from the WAAF. The commanders in the WAAF, in order to placate General Metcalfe, transferred her to the WAAF Intelligence Corps, which proved to suit her far better, and she chose intelligence as her career. As part of her job, Pontoin trained to become an aircraft pilot; she began to make a name for herself amongst WAAF officials both for her flying skills and her ruthless efficiency in dealing with Intelligence Department assignments. Hers was considered superb work that quashed many enemy organisations during this period of her career.
To reward her for her tremendous contribution to the service, the WAAF promoted her to Commanding Officer of the newly formed Women’s Fighter Squadron. She there excelled in air-combat tactics, and her leadership skills quickly gained the respect and admiration of the other squadrons, including now-Colonel Paul Metcalfe's own English Channel Squadron of the WAAF Special Forces ("Red Berets") at the WAAF's Gibraltar Base. Soon she had become the ace pilot of the WAAF.
However, this was not to last. Over the course of three years, the rather restive Pontoin tired of the lack of personal freedom and the armed forces's strict regulations. Resigning, she started her own firm of flying contractors.
Though she imagined she was through with military life, Pontoin learned this not quite to be the case very soon. For her prowess in the field of intelligence gathering, her remarkable skills as a pilot, and her flawless record with the WAAF had brought her to the attention of the newly-formed Spectrum selection committee. She was approached in 2065, by having a package sent to her, with instructions to deliver it to a deserted air-strip. Curious, she followed the instructions to the letter. Probably tempted by this new challenge, she happily accepted the job of Pilot-In-Charge in the new organisation’s squadron of Angel interceptors, who were then stationed at Koala Base ten miles north of Liberty Point Mines in Australia's "Great Sandy Desert," and received the code name of the Destiny Angel.

But he was super intimidating in his black costume, speaking with a booming voice, and towering a foot or more above me... The kid in me took over.
