He gave me several cheap ones because I couldn't keep up with anything. But I would sit a carve out big colorful acorns and make beads. Those were the days. I still have a few tucked away in drawers.<br /><br />LisaLisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03109633602729593188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-53106267219489761852015-06-28T17:30:18.523-04:002015-06-28T17:30:18.523-04:00I too have had a pocket knife all my life and I us...I too have had a pocket knife all my life and I use it often. When we went on our cruise a few years ago I took my pocket knife. Security stopped me not because I had a small pocket knife but because the pocket knife had a cork screw. I found that interesting. My choices were I could dispose of the knife or take it back to the car. Jilda said "Toss it, I'll buy you another one"...but that went against my grain. Instead I walked all the way back to the car which was a few hundred yards away and left it there. There was no way I was going to donate my knife to the security guard fund.<br />Rick Watsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01005727239466916086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-46495813260009615682015-06-28T02:23:44.421-04:002015-06-28T02:23:44.421-04:00i have also heard the same storiesi have also heard the same storiesAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17819521809581522449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-5027617217231622862015-06-27T17:12:34.806-04:002015-06-27T17:12:34.806-04:00what a shame for such a useful item to not be able...what a shame for such a useful item to not be able to carry anymore.<br />Like Jack said I don't ever remember anybody treating anyone or each other.

(Probably not the extent you did!)<br />He was mighty miffed when the TSA seized the knife which used to belong to his own daddy.
