Hey guys.

I got my father a Leatherman Wave and a nice knife as a christmas present that I will give him in a few days.

I want to engrave something into one of those. I can't think of anything right now and "to father, from son" is just too bad.

I need something fun and creative but without showing too much love as this just isnt part of our relationship.
But he will keep those items forever and it should remind him of me.
I dont have any nicknames btw.

I opened 60p giveaway for my whitelisted people. all people participating will get onto whitelist

Deimuddi, hello,

Could you post knife's picture please?
It might help us about creativity process.

And could you please tell us why did you decided to buy a knife for your dad?
Is he a knife collector?

I've listed a few things that I think could work.

"A kitchen without a knife is not a kitchen." --Masaharu Morimoto

"A tool to take everywhere" --Myself

"Don't bring a knife to a gunfight!" --Proverb

"A Man without a Wife is like a Kitchen without a Knife" --Proverb

"Better to have it and not need it, than to need it and not have it!" --Someone, somewhere

"Don't lick the jelly off the blade!" --Some guy on an internet forum

"You're only as sharp as your knife."

"[Even] when the World is at Peace, a gentleman keeps his (Sword/Blade/Knife) by his side." - Wu Tsu
This can be translated a few ways, your options should be clear.

"Every-Day-Carry" (or some variation)

Hope you like some of these. Nice knives make great gifts. Usually passed down through generations, not up! I have a pocket knife that I use that went grandfather -> mother -> me.

I would engrave "Don't lose this." I still have my Swiss Army knife from when I was four.
