When my 2001 book The Logic of Steel came out it was highly anticipated as the first knife book based on extensive interviews of knifers and knifes. The knife community though, loudly rejected it, because, in its politically incorrect pages, I let the reader know that having a knife in your possession is an affront to the Mommy State, as it is a taboo weapon, and a phallic weapon; doubly offensive to our political nannies.

Well knife gurus, I told you so.

David drove his father's car to school.

His father is a commercial fisherman.

There was a fishing knife in the car.

The school conducted a random car search.

David thought he was going to get in trouble for his dad's chewing tobacco, not his work tool. David is suspended, will face other penalties, and is under criminal investigation by the sheriff—who will hopefully pull out onto the interstate in front of an 18-wheeler driven by a jonesing meth-head before this is all over.
