I guess the difference then was that it would never enter our tiny little minds to actually pull it out and stick it in anyone! We never dreamed of a knife being a weapon. I used a folding knife in middle school and used it for sharpening my pen at bin next to the teachers desk. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I kept it when he died with the intention of buffing it up a bit as a little reminder of him. This thread has spurred me on to dig it out and do it.
