Now at home it would be considered highly illegal to brandish a knife like these puppies. However, in Guatemala these are freely carried by all and sundry. Indeed, the kids use them when they go into the forest, and they often wear them in the town too. So, I thought, when in Rome … Only joking! These were in our backyard when we arrived and are handy for cutting branches for firewood and feeling macho – they are razor sharp. Here you can see me practising the ´get off my land' stance.
Pretty impressive hey, I mean I wouldn't mess with me … I sleep with them under the bed.
You could also use those for carving a really big steak.
