Today I learned that I'm a 51 year old rube. I was at the local after work. An older fellow I know from the bar but not personally - a bar buddy - sat next to me.
The barman was struggling to open a bottle so I handed him my pocket knife. It's old but it can shave the fuzz off a peach. The barman thanked me and handed it back.
Bar buddy commented on the sharpness of the blade, so I handed it to him. He handed it back. I then settled up with the bar, left my keys, wallet, phone, takeaway food, and pocket knife on the bar and went to the gents.
I came back, picked up everything and left.
Pocket knife was not in my pocket when I got home - noticed when I put my keys back in the pocket.
I got played by a 71 year old man. The little squint.
