I don't know anything about this guy so maybe he is some zen master with a knife. My luck he belongs to this board and I'm going to hurt his feelings. eek

I do know that my Dad (or leader in Cub Scouts) would have beat me like a step child if I ever handled a knife life that!

IMO you don't stab through a can with your weak hand in front of the blade; especially in a survival situation.

If I'm off in left field I apologize but I thought the clip was good for a laugh anyway. wink

I’m not a Jedi-Master with a knife, not even close. I’m just happy if I don’t cut myself when using a knife.
