The other day, the folks here on the island were having a dinner BBQ and we showed like we usually do. Bringing a watermelon with us, I brought the BK5 of course, since it's just a standard piece of our "need to cut something" gear.

When the time came to cut the watermelon, one of the island residents walks up to my amazing wife and opens a small pocket knife that probably had about a 3" blade. "Here. This will help," he says. Unbeknownst to him, my wife was just grabbing the BK5 from under our pile of jackets. She draws the BK5, holds it an equal distance between both of their faces (about 18" from each of them), and responds, "I got this." I literally saw his shoulders slump before he told her, "OK, you got this." I tried not to laugh so I just giggled a bit. Funny stuff.

Great to see you back around! Mad respect for any woman that can swing her own steel.
 
Haha that's gold. Like Mick Dundee said " Thats not a knife - this is a knife". Poor lad, the Mrs must have left him feeling well inadequate.
 
Poor guy. Sometimes size does matter. We bbq' d last weekend and my wife used the five to cut up the veggies. Then she grilled them and wouldn't let me help. I think she actually slapped my hand once. Then she used the five again to slice the tenderloin. Bringing her around slowly. If my wife did what yours did I don't think I would be able to contain myself.
 
That's pretty dang funny. Would've loved to see the look on his face go from confident to confused. Beckers have a way of putting people in their place......especially when a woman is using it!
 
Wish I had been there ..... If I had been there they would have heard my laugh for miles and miles!!!!!..... Please give her a thank you hug from me...... Gonna be chuckling all the way to Saint Louie .......

last weekend i was grilling burgers and dogs at the in-laws place. the wife's cousin brings me a table knife to separate the burgers. i says "thanks, but…" then the wife brings me my 15. and a beer.
 
I'm glad you all enjoyed that and I enjoyed your stories as well! Good stuff! I'll keep you all posted about the next pulling off man cards by my wife. It happens a lot.

Wives With Knives! They kick ass, don't they? I love mine, that's for sure!

(Cue Animal from The Muppets hollering "WOO-MAHN!")

Great story! I would have liked to have seen the expression on that guys face when your wife brought BK5 into play.
 
We are working on getting a GoPro with chest, helmet, and other mounting options. Too many things happen every day that are far to entertaining to not share. It's probably going to be a few moths at least though before we can make that happen. To many other priorities that cost money.

Something similar happened this afternoon. Got 'volunteered' to help grill burgers and dogs for about 30 ppl.

Someone's wife was trying to open a large pack of hotdogs with a paring knife. I offer to help and she hands me the knife and warns me that the knife is "very sharp". (orly? so sharp it couldn't cut plastic?)

Instead of taking the knife, I pull out my Spyderco Delica ZDP-189 and the tip parts the plastic like magic as she holds the pack. In response to widened eyes, I quip - "Now that's a sharp knife." ;)
