Anybody got a knife?

Last fall I visited one of my cousins for the first time in, oh 30+ years. She now has five kids (all grown, all present last fall) and we were sitting around the table playing a card game. Two of the boys got in an argument over the rules (gotta love "house rules") and I slapped my Sodbuster down on the table and said, "Get serious guys, no more of this rule rigging!" When about 8 knives and a couple of pocket poppers hit the table almost immediately, I knew for sure they were kin folk!
A bladeless society is just weird! How folks get through the day without certain tools is a mystery to me.
