Thread: Knife for Boy (small chap)

The longer the blade the easier to cut yourself

His Mother can decide if he gets it to use now by himself, under supervision when he's hunting, or if it gets put away for when he's older. I have put a note to that affect with it.

Either way he gets to be encouraged about hunting and will have something that represents generosity from a kind stranger in an otherwise quite self centred world.
