I saw a post with baby Carmilla chewing on a knife.

I think it was a post by @weapons-maker-carmilla.

So, here it is.

Rarity accompanied me when I went to make a Damascus steel knife on a blacksmithing course.

(It was really hard to do and honestly, most of it was done by the nice helpful blacksmith staff teaching me! I did expect it to be very hard work and my goodness, it certainly was.)

In Herefordshire, in England.

A Corsican Vendetta knife with a floral design. The blade reads: “Che la mia ferita sia mortale” which roughly translates to: “May all your wounds be mortal.”

The sword of the day is the stiletto.

The stiletto is an Italian renaissance-era dagger with a long, slender profile and a needle-like point. It is a development on the rondel dagger, and initially served a very similar purpose; a backup weapon to pierce through gaps in armor while in extremely close quarters combat. It was also developed from a second weapon, called a misericorde, used to deliver mercy kills to downed knights through their heavy armor. The narrow blade could penetrate through chain mail at the armpit to reach the heart, or even stab through the eye slits of a helmet to kill quickly via brain injury. Later, the stiletto was adopted as an assassin’s weapon, easily concealed and able to pierce through heavy leather and fabric clothing. The strikingly narrow blade is so iconic that it remains a name for many different kinds of long, narrow features, like extremely thin high heeled shoes.

I want to get a beater knife for around the kitchen so that I won't have to choose between bitching about cutting cakes and pies and stuff on ceramic surfaces or having to sharpen my good knives all the time but I just know that I'm going to end up being really precious about the beater knife too. Because I like to have a sharp knife.
