What was your first knife

My first knife was a Cub Scout jack knife (one larger blade and one smaller blade) when I was in elementary school. It was considered part of the Cub Scout uniform. So each boy carried that knife in class, once a month, for after school "Pack Meetings" in auditorium. And there were zero stabbings! Can't picture kids being allowed to carrying knives to elementary school these days :)
 
The first knife i got was actually a gift from my mother. It was a benchmade 741 that I never had the courage to pull the trigger myself.

Same here. Belonged to my grandfather.
He snapped the main blade off at the choil :(, closed it up, pulled out the shorter blade, thumbed it, closed it and handed it to me. I was 5 years old. He told me "If you cut yourself with this, I'll whoop ya!"
I still have it...
