This was originally posted by me back in dec,of 1998, my angel is fine now. this is just a reminder to be careful while horseing around this holiday with KIDS and KNIVES
PLEASE BE CAREFUL WITH YOUR KNIVES AROUND CHILDREN
This happened to me today
While at some close friend's home enjoying a Christmas dinner, I was horsing around with some of the small Kids (3 to 10 year's old) after the meal (trying to work off a little of what I just ate).
Well I was wrestling around with this big 10-year-old boy, and my little girl-she's 3 (my princess, my love of my life, my wife always tells me I play to rough with her) decided to get involved. She jumped on the boy then, rolled over him landed on me then on the floor. She started to say ouchy daddy ouchy on my back. I thought that maybe she had bent her back a little too much so I turned her over to rub her back. When I lifted her shirt she had a gash on her lower right side of her back about 1\2" wide and about 1" long. I picked her up to bring her into the bathroom, because of the strong lite in there, there wasn't much blood and she wasn't crying but I could see muscle tissue, I looked around to see what she cut her self on and all I could see was my belt (not sharp) buckle or maybe the clip on my new Elishewitz # 3 (auto), also not sharp. Then my right hand fell to my side and I found out what it was, The FRIGGIN knife had opened in my pocket less than an 1\8" was sticking through my blue jeans!!!!!
We took her to the hospital; the doctor put a few stitches in her did some blood work and took X-rays to see if it had punctured her lung. Everything came back OKAY "Thank you Lord" I have not received the final bill yet but I figure it will be around a grand after all is said and done. I was also told I might be getting a Visit from the "child protection agency".
I've been carrying knives (automatics) for a long time and this is the first time anything like this has ever happened this is also the last time.
While waiting to see the doctor I was looking at the knife and trying to figure out how the hell this happened. While looking over the knife, I realized that the release button for the blade is very high and only needs to move a hair before the super pointy blade shoots out. All of my other carry autos have either a recessed button or at least flush one, and also require more pressure to activate.
Please be aware of this possible problem
I don't blame the knife I blame myself
The knife comes what a ballistic cloth sheath for belt carry-but it also comes with a clip for your pocket
BOTTOM LINE LOOK AT THE RELEASE BUTTON BEFORE YOU PUT IT IN YOUR POCKET.
