Whenever a knife is to be used in an activity a risk assessment must be made and suitable controls put in place. Overview For this task the group will do 4 activities; 1. Learn about the types of knives available for Scouting 2. Learn about the safety procedures 3. A chance to use a knife and 4. How to sharpen a knife Preparation Before The Meeting 1. Print out the ‘Types of Knives’ handout – found in this document – you need one for each person and there are 3 on the page 2. Print out the ‘Multifunction Pocket Knife – Uses’ handout found in this document – you need one between 4 people 3. Print out the blank ‘Multifunction Pocket Knife Picture’ handout found in this document – you need one between 4 people and there are 4 on the page 4. Print out the ‘Knife Safety Quiz’ - found in this document – you need one for each person Materials Needed • Pen for each person • A selection of different knives used in the kitchen - one set for demonstration • A bread knife and a vegetable knife – one set for each team of four • Penknife with a lock blade - ideally one per person or get them to share Preparation At The Meeting 1. Layout your materials in secure place where the group cannot just come up and touch them Directions/Leader Speak 1. Speak – Tonight you are going to start your ‘Survival Skills Badge’. The first task you need to carry out is to show that you know how to use basic knife skills including safety. Before we start I want to point out that in the UK anyone caught carrying an illegal knife in public currently faces a maximum fine of £5,000 and four years in prison. So under no circumstances should you carry or use a knife outside of our supervision at our meeting or at camp with a leader 2. Speak - Knives come in many shapes and sizes. Some have only one blade others may have many blades and tools. Some are small; some are big. Generally, a good Scouting knife will have a blade, a can opener a screwdriver blade and a punch, in a foldable design. This sort of knife is usually all that a resourceful Scout will need. (A punch is something that you can use to punch a hole or use as a needle). Page | 2 © All Rights Reserved 2019 EasierScouting.com Activity One - Types of Knives 1. Speak - You are going to do a quick activity that will give you an idea of the types of knives that people might use when they go camping 2. Action – Hand out the ‘Types of Knives’ handout to each person and give them 5-10 minutes to complete the activity 3. Action – Once they’ve finished read out the answers Knife for Carving Multifunction Pocket Survival Knife Machete for Wood Knife Chopping Wood Activity Two - Multifunction Pocket Knife Uses Game 1. Direction - Split the group into teams of 4 2. Action – Handout the ‘Multifunction Pocket Knife – Uses’ handout to share between 4 people 3. Speak – This picture shows you a Multifunction Pocket Knife which has 33 different parts to it. Not all pocket knives are this extensive. Have a quick look at the uses for the parts of this knife 4. Action - Collect the handout from all teams and handout a blank diagram of the knife to each team 5. Direction – Using a flipchart or board write down team names so you can record points for each team 6. Direction – Now ask each team either for the use or the name of a part of the knife. For example, you would say “give me a use for part number 1 of this knife” or “give me the name of part 20 of this knife 7. Direction – When they give you the name of the part don’t be too strict because they’ve only looked at it for a few minutes and as long as they’ve given you a close answer then that’s good enough 8. Direction – Each team are allowed to confer before their spokesperson gives you the answer 9. Action - Record the points in your board Note: Because there are a total of 66 questions you should have enough even if you have a large group Activity Three - Knife Safety Quiz 1. Speak - Now you’re going to do a ‘Knife Safety Quiz’. Once you’ve done this, you’ll perform a couple of activities using a knife 2. Action – Hand out the ‘Knife Safety Quiz’ to each person and give them 15-20 minutes to complete. Then you can read out the answers Answers 1. A 6. A 11. Cutting edge and the point 2. B 7. D 12. G 3. B 8. C 13. D 4. B 9. A 14. a. Fire b. Bow c. Shelter d. Rope e. Carving 5. A 10. A f. Game g. Reflective Surface Page | 3 © All Rights Reserved 2019 EasierScouting.com Activity Four – Knife Demonstration & Usage Directions/Leader Speak 1. Speak - I’m going to demonstrate how to use some different knives then you will use them too. Anytime you use a knife you should have a “safety zone” around you. You are responsible for this zone and making sure it stays safe at all times. You had a similar question in the quiz so what do you think a safety zone is? 2. Direction - Take answers, praise and reiterate… A Safe Zone includes the following… a) The ground is level b) There are no small children or pets close c) You have at least an arm’s length of empty space all around you d) Your feet are not on slippery ground 3. Speak - If someone else enters your safety zone for any reason you should close your knife and lay it down. 4. Speak - Remember someone could surprise you from behind and if you turn quickly holding a knife, you could hurt someone. So put the knife down before you turn around. Demonstration 1 – The Kitchen 1. Speak - At camp you will be helping to cook so we want to make sure that you can use kitchen knives properly. 2. Action - Display various kitchen knives to show them the difference. Use the diagram below to help you. Explain what they’re used for and that they should be treated with the same respect and safety rules 3. Action - Demonstrate how to cut bread and some vegetables 4. Speak - Always hold the object you are cutting securely in front of you, and on a flat surface. Place the blade against the object and apply slight pressure while moving the blade away from your body. It’s better to make several cuts using light pressure than one cut by forcing the blade. 5. Direction - Now get each person to practise cutting some bread and vegetables. Observe them and correct them as they cut. This is a good foundation to using knives Paring Knife Bread Knife Utility Knife MultiPurpose Carving Knife Cleaver Used for peeling Used for slicing Used for Boning/ Fillet Used for slicing Used for cutting & de-seeding bread vegetables Knife meat through joints Use to removed and bones bones from meat or fish Page | 4 © All Rights Reserved 2019 EasierScouting.com Demonstration 2 – The Lock Blade Knife 1. Speak - At camp you may need to use a penknife 2. Action - Show them a penknife with a lock blade. Explain that the lock is a safety feature 3. Action - Demonstrate how to open the knife… a. Hold the knife in one hand, with the blade side facing away from you, and open the blade with your other hand. Most blades have a small semi-circle cut into the blade near the top to give you a better hold on the blade while opening it. You can use your fingernail or grab that edge with your fingers to pull the blade open. Be sure to hold the sides of the knife firmly as you open the blade. It is often easier to open if you pull both the blade and the knife apart at the same time 4.

  • Shakespeare's Penknife
    Shakespeare’s Penknife: Grafting and Seedless Generation in the Procreation Sonnets Vin Nardizzi University of British Columbia Cet essai remet dans son contexte la figure de la greffe qu’utilise Shakespeare dans ses « sonnets de procréation » (numéro 1-17) par l’examen de la présentation de cette technique horticole dans la littérature de jardinage des seizième et dix-septièmes siècles. On y argue que le personnage du sonnet 15 se réfère à cette littérature, se terminant sur le vers « I engraft you new », visualisant la greffe horticole autant comme une technique d’écriture que comme une forme analogue à la procréation humaine. En tant qu’écriture, la greffe permet à l’orateur de se hisser au niveau des héritiers et de la poésie, puisque le canif est indispensable autant au poète qu’au jardinier, respectivement pour préparer une plume et une greffe. Toutefois, en tant qu’analogue de la procréation humaine, la greffe ne procède pas par semis ou par mélange des semences. Au lieu de cela, elle constitue une forme de génération ne nécessitant pas de semences, et de ce fait évoque le potentiel de la greffe comme reproduction travestie dans les Sonnets de Shakespeare. t the close of Sonnet 15, the speaker of Shakespeare’s Sonnets makes a spectacular Apronouncement to the beautiful young man: “I engraft you new” (l.14).1 In doing so, he links procreation to poetry-making through an image of plant grafting. As Bruce R. Smith observes, Sonnet 15 not only “sets up” the figures of generation in Sonnet 16 (“maiden gardens” [l.6] and “living flowers” [l.7]) but also embeds a pun on graphein (Greek: “to write”).

When “news media” drops down, click on that —— and there’re the full interviews! E D I T O R I A L Violence Sometimes Is The Best — And Only Solution THE bromide sounds so good and comfy: “Violence never solves anything!”. That’s why so many people accept it. That’s why they unthinkingly pass it on. That’s why, despite it’s being bullshit, the damn catch phrase has become almost a guide for those poor saps who now live in a feral world and who feel helpless to deal with it. “Well,” they tell themselves, “violence certainly is no solution. We’ve just got to find ways to encourage dialog with troublemakers, and talk out our differences.” The truth is that while always regrettable, recourse to physical force is sometimes desperately necessary and completely justifiable. This fact —— this concept —— was once understood as being axiomatic. No sane person questioned, for example, that the absolute right to self-defense existed for everyone; everywhere, and at all times. Today, a great deal of confusion has been allowed to permeate the minds of formerly sensible people, and we observe such horse manure as “zero tolerance for violence” being announced as policy in the public schools —— making a bully’s victim as culpable as the bully if that victim defends himself.

In 2003, Victorinox released a 111mm series of knifes known as the Trailmaster based on the German Army Knife. Not to be confused with Cold Steel’s Trail Master Bowie Knife, Victorinox renamed this knife Trekker. Offered with a one-handed open blade, the Trekker became very popular in the United States. In 2008 the Trailmaster/Trekker knife was officially adopted by the Swiss Government to replace the Soldier model 1961. The new Soldier features a one-handed serrated locking blade, Philips screwdriver, can opener, small screw driver, bottle opener, large locking screwdriver, wire striper, reamer, wood saw and key ring.

    NEWS OF OUR CLIENTS 668 Flinn Ave Suite 28 Tel 805 529 3700 Contact: Jonina Costello / [email protected] Moorpark CA 93021 Fax 805 529 3701 Jason Bear / [email protected] Phone: (805) 529-3700 ONTARIO KNIFE COMPANY® INTRODUCES NEW-FOR-2014 BUSHCRAFT FIELD KNIFE™ Classic, Rugged Design Meets Superior Strength for the Ultimate Survival Knife The new-for-2014 Ontario Knife Company® Bushcraft Field Knife maximizes the value of minimalist design. Crafted with high- end carbon steel and a design that is sure to have survivalists, hunters and outdoor enthusiasts lining up to be the first to own one, the OKC Bushcraft Field Knife is the next must have knife — and more. A survival knife is a hunting companion, survival tool, and is at times used for field craft that no blade should ever be expected to perform. Requirements such as these demand a knife that was not just built for the bush, but built by a blademaster. Ontario Knife Company vetted their craftsman well and selected OKC Blademaster-in-Residence Dan Maragni to design the OKC Bushcraft Field Knife. Fans of survival knives are no strangers to Margani’s previous works including Ontario Knife’s SP43 and SP53. However, with the new OKC Bushcraft Field Knife, Maragni may have created his crowning work. The OKC Bushcraft Field Knife was hand-crafted with attention to detail and a focus on the key aspects the Bushcraft community demands in a survival blade, including a hardwood handle and carbon steel blade. Overall, the full-tang OKC Bushcraft Field Knife measures 10.12 inches of robust 5160 carbon steel.
