One year ago I have my son this victorinox for his seventh birthday:
I told him to take care of it, keep it clean, keep it sharp, and always be careful. It is pretty clean, lightly worn, sharp, and no stitches yet.
Now this didn't get by me. When I was his age I was using my pocketknife to dig up worms and make mud trenches, attempting to cut concrete blocks, and slam it on any piece of metal I could find to see if it was "flint." Haha.
So this year, he got rewarded. We talked about how I was proud of him for being responsible, taking care of his tools and being safe.
I explained how when we can, we always buy quality tools. Then I have him these
Nothing crazy, but boy does he love them! He, being as responsible as he is, was super excited about the lifetime guarantee that each tool has.
He is more excited to take bigger things apart. Lol.
Maybe it me. It's just such a wonderful moment. This is one of those great moments I will never forget. Thought I would share.
