they can deal with your badassery like a boss and be jelly.
but why do you have knives
Collectioning.
In a average I have:
A steel revolver which looks like a great replica, but it's a lighter.
A knife which can cut & stab which has a lantern too.
2 knives which can stab, but can't cut.
A baseball bat I've used sereval times by playing with my friends in the garden, but we lost our ball and never used it again (And I didn't see any of my old friends I've played with for 2 years anyway)...
And I just like it.
I also have some stuffty toy guns.
I love roleplaying on my own and act like I'm rambo.
I don't try to act like a badass. I just like posing.
