I am a very Lucky man. Not only do I have the two greatest girls in my life: my girlfriend and her 11 year old daughter, but both of them got infected by the knife virus. My girlfriend got bitten first. I was introduced to her by a good female friend of mine who is a coleague of hers as a macho wierdo with strange hobbies( martial arts, knives). However she was not appaled but showed a definite, genuine fascination.Not much long into our emerging relation ship she wanted a knife. I got her a Gigand Frank Carter collaboration.She loved it. The daughter also was very fascinated with my collection and grown up tools like flashlights, that she wanted a knife for herself. She got a SAK from her mom and a Maglight from me and she is defintely in for a LM Micra.
But that´s not all: they live near to one of the finest cutlery stores in town.One day we were passing by and I saw a BM Balisong in the window and we went in to check it out. the kid loved the manipulations as did the mother. I went out to ponder to get it when the little one spoke to me dead serious:"Go in and buy it now you´ll regret it if you won´t later." I went in and got it.
You just gotta love kids.

May our passion fall on fruitfull soil
