I cannot relate to this thread at all. I had access to every tool my father owned my entire life. Had some of my own tools and knives by 6 yo. By the time I was 15, I was physically larger than most men had a full beard and worked full time on a carpentry job in the summer.
It is a different world now I know. Edgar seems like a good kid. Is Dad is worried about something, and we can’t figure it out from here. IDK?
I can’t figure out why his dad doesn’t try to participate in bushcraft with him. I know I’ve done some crazy stuff with my kids to help them explore their interests . Anything to keep them off of their phones. Lol.
How many if us would love it if our kids wanted to learn knife stuff?
I wish him all the best and I for one hope he gets a dandy knife for Christmas, and a Red Rider BB gun! Best of luck, keep us posted.
Edgar. I was actually blown away that you came back here to check in and respond to us. (We get a lot of fly by people who ask a question and never come back). The fact you came back at all. Speaks volumes about your maturity and your posts are well written. You have a bright future ahead of you.
