Ding! Knife acquired

Today I bought  a tool that exemplifies utility. This tool has been around since 600-500 BC. It can be used to clean a freshly hunted animal, open a letter, or defend yourself . This item is the humble pocket knife.

I was inspired by The Art of Manliness website and purchased a pocketknife this afternoon. I haven't had a pocketknife since cub scouts.  I really had no affinity to hunt, fish or camp so my love affair with the pocketknife fell by the wayside.


 To begin I need to remember a few steps to this dance.
1. Whittling Chip- Check

2. First aid kit- Check                        


3. Useable applications
    
    Endless.


Do you have a favorite pocketknife story?
Comment and tell me something nostalgic.
