When it comes to KNIVES, are kids smarter? ...

[Mark W Douglas]

Well, to make a long story short, I ordered two more large Sebenza's yesterday with dual thumb posts.

Why, the two I originally aquired a while ago, I had put away for my twin boys. I gave them the Sebenza's a few weeks ago and all I am hearing now from my boys are how fantastic these knives are! I figured what the heck, if they like these large Sebenza's so much, they must be one heck of a good knife. I didn't want to ask for them back, so I ordered more for myself! I have always perferred a larger knife (4" blade or larger), but my tastes are changing. Don't know if it is because of my kids or if it is just because I am getting older! Nah, it's because of my kids! Hey, they are straight 'A' students all the time, so they must be smarter than me

I must follow my kids and learn from them, I want to be like my boys! Like sons, like father

Ummmm Daddy? This is your long lost son from down on the bayou. May I have my Sebenza now? Please?? I miss you

Smarter? What does being Mentally Unbalanced have to do with being smarter?

Give that knife to me Mark, quickly. I can neutralize it's normally cult like Mind Control powers and put it to Good Use.

If you hang on to a Sebenza long enough, and even worse, actually use it, the insidious brain washing will have begun. Pretty soon you will be posting all sorts of cult like comments like "There can be Only One Knife" and scary nonsense like that. You might even think you and your sons have joined a revolutionary clan, Los Sebenzanista's.

After a while you'll begin to think that In the Beginning, Reeve used a Sebenza to part the Light from the Dark, the Heavens from the Earth, and the Waters from the Land.

Send that knife to Me now. Or you will be changed forever. Besides, I need something sharp to cut my way outta these restraints. Hurry.

Ohhhh Man, I can see where this thread is headed

I thought I only had a few kids, but it seems as though they are now coming out of the woodwork. 4 emails this morning since this post of lost and forgotten children wanting to make their claim!

How come this never happened to me before with all of my other knives I have given to MY KIDS?

Where have you all been?

I have to take a new note now, EVERY MAN OR WOMEN FOR THEIRSELF now with aquiring knives, including my kids!

Mark, you may want to rethink your signature line, ya know what I mean? Besides, "All generalizations are false."

Two Sebenzas for kids!!!
WOW, I mean that is awsome, when I was a kid I woulda loved to recieve those, so now at east if they ever get in trouble you can threaten them with taken em' away.......

 

[Mark W Douglas]

MICKEY77, you nailed that right on the head!

My boys only use them when I'm with them, other than that the knives are strickly for them to look at until they are older. I rewarded them with these knives because of their continuous good grades and for advancing into Boyscouts now. Yeap, part of my plan too was to use your idea of taking them away if they do something wrong

Of course there had to be a catch to it

Kids are always smart, they have to be.
Firstly: nature has arranged it that way.
Then: they are born from VERY BRIGHT parents.
