As some of you may know my son is graduating from Harvard Law, so for the last few months I've been working on a set of knives and a presentation box. I won't even bother to go into the trials and tribulations of problems I encountered trying to get this whole project done, but I leave Saturday for the ceremony next week and I just finished the knives yesterday morning. The engraving on the box got done last night and the lining went in today. (nothing like cutting it close). Anyway here's the Set. A Carving Knife and Fork and 8 Steak Knives.

Also posted this in the Knife forum but figured the kid's accomplishment is worth the double post.

Harvard Law!!!! Good for him and you.

That's a beautiful gift that I imagine will be cherished in the family for generations.

Great gift. I see he's destined to become the third partner of the law firm Dewey, Cheatham... wink

The MOST useful, on a day-to-day basis would be a custom letter opener.

Congrats.

From Harvard Law, at least he didn't ask for a copy of the Communist Manifesto in a presentation box

What an amazing gift, something to be treasured for a lifetime and passed down.

That's really a fine gift, I bet he does remember that for a long time smile

Although I opened this thread wondering if you were asking for suggestions. I was gonna suggest a small, sharp, polite tactical folder, to use when needed on the impolite. smile
