Steve, Did you happen to see which way the horse went ??  I've looked North,South,East, and West.-Can't find that darn horse anywhere !!  If I wasn't crying because it is too true, I'd be laughing !!

Thanks for all your positive comments! I would like to add to what John McCain had written. It is gradually creeping in on everybody everywhere, this politically correctness anti gun/knife rules/hysteria. I grew up in the 80s in Canada and back then it seemed to be just the beginning. We couldnt carry pocket knives, nor t-shirts with obsene pictures or language, but otherwise I could have a knife on me outside of school. I did get caught with nunchucks by the police when I was 14, and they confiscated them... Supposedly they were illegal to carry... In the Czech Republic it is okay to have any type and length of knife on you. This will probably change, because Germany has strict knife laws as do other surrounding countries. All in all I must say that people should use common sense and not go beserk over something as innocent as carrying a pocket knife! I mean, its not the knife or gun that kills, but the person who uses it. I am very happy that my kids can show off their wooden knives to their classmates and nobody thinks anything negative of it.

Well done Jakub, and I am glad your kids can take them to school and share them with their friends, and be normal youngsters. Sad to say, here in the USA, they would probably be suspended or even expelled from school for bringing even a wooden knife to school !!  Insanity and lack of common sense sometimes rule here, and children have been expelled for carrying such "dangerous items" as a set of nail clippers or nail file !! Yes,unforunately, there has been tragic violence in some of our schools, but now it seems, that hysteria is the "new normal" and common sense went out the window !! Just my two cents worth --

Thanks, I had a good time making them, and it is great to see that the kids are happy and enjoying playing with them. Now they are asking me for "bigger" wooden knives!
