My almost 5 year old son is asking for a knife, mainly to pry apart his Lego's when they get stuck together, and partly to feel like a big boy. I have let him handle my small CS Voyager (only with my supervision, of course), and he obeys all the safety rules I have given him. I'm starting to think he may be ready for something like a Victorinox Classic with a small blade and scissors (again,only under adult supervision). He has promised to use it only as a tool, and to never try to take it out of the house.
If any of you fathers out there could share your experiences of giving knives to your own children, it would be a big help in making my decision.
Thanks,
Dave
