When I was a kid I had a very nice knife collection I kept under the stairs and used to admire nearly every day. We moved house and I had to stay at my grandparents for the weekend so I wouldn't get under my parents feet during the move. But I made them promise me they would definatly pack up my collection and bring it with them.
Did they remember? Did they heck!
I've never truly forgiven them for that mistake even though nearly 30 years has gone by lol

), two Opinel - one carbon steel and one stainless, and my trusty old Victorinox. The Victorinox was bought in 1978 I think, in fact I bought two identical models that year. I snapped the blade in two on the first one (mis-using it as a crowbar) and bought myself another. I gave to first away to a mate who ground the blade so that it looked like a half-scale model of its former self. I then proceeded to snap the tip off the second one (see the photo below- hope I've added the image properly) but I kept it and reshaped the blade as you (hopefully) can see. The knife has a single blade, a saw, an awl and a corkscrew. At the tip of the saw there is a screwdriver, a crown-cap opener and it can also be used to open tin cans.
