I was at a child’s (mid teens) birthday party, where the young lady got a multi tool as a present. Some of the other children and a couple of parents were aghast that she got a present with a blade on it. Mind you two of the children that were freaked out work in their family restaurant where they routinely wield meat cleavers and 12” butchers’ knives...not to mention the knife set at home.
It was funny when the Austrailian young lady pulled the 4” folding knife out of her sun dress pocket.
All my kids run from very familiar to fluent with guns, knives, hatchets, saws, archery etc.
The circles we run in are about the same.
“young lady got a multi tool as a present”
Please be a little more descriptive. Had I not read on I would have thought something else that libs try and peddle to our kids.
