The truest old friend of the inflicted.... The very first pocket knife, It’s as if life official started on that day. This Imperial KampKing was given to me on this day in 1978, I remember getting a fishing pole, tackle box and this knife before I went off to school. It is one of the only birthdays I can actually still remember ( the later years are forgotten because of....well we’ve all been there) anyways I remember watching a video on the TV cart the teachers used to wheel into school classrooms back then, on that day it was on oceans/ sea life etc.and I can remember day dreaming about catching the whale shown on the video with my new rod in the river behind my house haha. Well my girls and I had planned on going fishing today but it’s a whopping 17° at my house so not too motivated.
I couldn't have said it any better than Jack did!![]()
