Unused Edge: How long to degrade?

[GWashington1732]

Okay, I think I got all that, but where do the gremlins come from, and why do they invade our pockets?

Gremlins are everywhere, in your car, in your pockets, your house, they exist only to cause you trouble, they can squeee themselves down into the size of a thumbtack and know everything about all things, and dull your knives because they feed off of your iritation and anguish.

Oh, I'm actually quite familiar with Gremlins, and have been for over sixty years. Now, there are those who don't believe in Gremlins and their disruptive powers, but I'm not one of them, no, Sir; I've seen too much evidence to the contrary. They're pesky little devils who get into everything, and delight in disrupting any human endeavor just for the heck of it, and especially knives and guns. We may not always be able to see them, but I know they're there.

Not everyone is aware that they come in larger sizes, too. The worst, in my experience, was a good looking redheaded female gremlin. Sure, she looked sweet on the outside, but if you ever see one like that, RUN (it's for your own protection).

The ones that I'm familiar with are shapeshifters, they can be as big or as small as they choose to be, and look like anything they choose to be.

Don't feed them after midnight or get them wet, my edges dull over time but still remain plently sharp and useful

Yes, yes, that's exactly what they are: shapeshifters. They walk among us everyday, and we don't even notice. Thirty years ago, when I used to drink, I could see them for what they were, but no longer. Now I only see the dulled edges (and other things) they leave behind.

I don't know that they're actually malevolent; I just think they have a peculiar sense of humor.

You can say there's no such thing as Gremlins, but as for me and Grandpa, we believe.
