Who are the biggest influences in your life?
My children. My 2 beautiful girls who I have loved and lived for since the day we met.
They are the reason I get out of bed everyday

Now that I have more time and less money on my hands, I have found away to keep busy, while enjoying myself.
For those of you in the know, have heard of OPINEL KNIVES. Probably one of the most recognized knife makes in the world. Not only that they are affordable and top quality. I carried a No 8 for years as a work edc. Never failed and easy sharpened to a razor edge.
BUT… for me the real reason is how easily you can change the look of the original to something a little different to make it yours.
Here are a few I have done. What fun…
Remember knowledge is a survival skill. Even modifying a a pocket knife helps you learn
Be safe

What’s something you believe everyone should know.
How to make a good cuppa Coffee. After all It wakes you up, keeps you warm and most important stops me from being grumpy all day.
Let’s face it, nobody wants a bunch of grumpy old men sitting on the front porch shouting at the kids all day.
Just saying….It is important to keep harmony in this world of uncertainty…….
Argh need another cuppa, I almost went into a rant…..
