Knife Crime?

Here he is the man we have been waiting for! He only appears every other month aand you hear him from the top floor as he plays his wee tin whistle - the tune is unique to the trade of knife sharpeners. The pedals turn the grindstone. As soon as we heard him, Les grabbed every blunt knife in the drawer (including the "lifetime sharpness guaranteed" ones) and set off with them all in a bag. In Britain he would have been arrested for carrying so many weapons - in Spain he also got charged and at 5 euros each it sure was sharp practice!
