Short PITS anecdote

#1

Post by vaisforlovers »

I love my wife, bless her heart. She puts up with my knife addiction. She routinely asks for a knife, knowing I’ll hand her one with a smile on my face. But if I’m not around she’ll grab whatever is on my dresser. She’s learned compression locks, back locks, Reeve integral locks, liner locks, and even the Phantom lock. They’re always treated with respect and returned closed and cared for.

Today, one baffled her for the first time in a long time. I found my PITS open on my dresser. She confirmed she struggled with it for a few minutes before giving up. The Slippie, the toughest lock of them all...

:D That's great!

Sometimes a solution is so simple that it's overlooked.

That's great! Haha! I sometimes find one of my knives open on my desk. I know it wasn't me who left it open like that.
Of all the things I've lost I miss my mind the most!

I am starting to notice that I subconsciously leave knives all around the house...it is possible I am becoming a knife squirrel. At least I don't bury them.

Knife Squirrel... I think you just coined a new term. I too am a knife squirrel.
