Love the history lesson too as you have inserted reference to John the Baptist (the Opinel has some relativity to the Holy Land Crusades I had read partially on Wiki?) and this is my favourite line brimming with religious/spiritual significance of the esoteric kind; <br />"It calls iron from arteries, bubbling up to the surface." Heavy. Meaningful.
