A very Knife Valentine's Day

With Valentines Day on the horizon, I thought I would share a few thoughts with some of you.

I often have knife buddies that say “I wish my wife were involved with my hobby”. So how many of you have tried to involve your better half and what better day of the year to try.

A few suggestions you say?

How about this, instead of a dozen overpriced VDay roses, a rose bush and a small pruning knife. Want a little more personal, get the knife now…have your jeweler engrave I love you and 2-14-2012. (inexpensive good choice Opinel..my choice Ken Ericksons)

Does she love chocolates? How about a box of chocolate covered strawberries and a new kitchen slicer like the Great Eastern Slicer 1.

Or better yet, A bottle of fine wine, the same chocolate covered strawberries and a laguiole corkscrew.

Or maybe even a gift certificate for a massage or day spa, inside the lovely tin that Case provides with their Valentines Day Knife.

Is she always on the go, laptop in hand? How about the Swiss Army SwissFlash 4GB Pocket Knife. Flashlight, knife, scissors, and an always handy flash drive.

Ok guys, you get the idea. Think outside the box of your own collection, it is not what interests her. That’s not to say that she wouldn’t like to have a knife of her own, paired with something she can see you put some personal thought into.

Last but not least….Many of the Art knives have jewels, you can check out some of them here on Bladesmith Babes under the discussion
