You know, I always have decided the appropriate time to put a fresh edge on my old Ka-Bar is when my 17 year old daughter has a young suitor come to pay her a visit.
The technique seems to have worked so far.
Seems to have worked so far towards what goal?
Making sure your daughter remains single and dependent on you her whole life?
And when she brings home the one who asks whether its an Army/Navy or a Marine Ka-Bar, you'll know she's found a keeper, right?

I told mine that she is to warn me before she brings a boy home to meet us. When she asked why I told her “because I will be sitting on the couch in my underwear cleaning my shotgun”.
(She’s a good kid and she knows I’m full of crap)
Reminds me a joke that my former rabbi used to give about having a large dull flint knife out. The boy would inevitably ask about it only to be told that any boy touching his daughter between her shoulders and knees would be recircumcised with it.
