In primary school (up to age eleven) in England, we were encouraged to bring a small sharp penknife to school as a more reliable and economical way of sharpening pencils than the hand-turned machine on the teacher's desk, which used to eat them by the inch.
It was good to learn young how to use a knife safely and effectively, and to learn respect for a sharp blade.
Times have changed.
