It’s the strangest summer you can remember–the pool shed is haunted, the nights stretch forever.

Proposing with knives actually used to be a thing in Finland in the past, at least amongst the peasants.

Occasionally there’d be kind of village dance or a special event at the church or such where young women looking to marry would have empty knife sheaths on their hips. If a man put their knife in your sheath and left it with you, they were asking to marry you.

Some days later the man would go to visit the prospective bride’s house, and if the knife had been placed with the knives of the woman’s family, as if it was one of theirs too, the proposal was accepted. If it was waiting for them in the vestibule or stuck to a doorframe, no luck.

A knife was an important everyday tool, a weapon of self-defense, but also a status symbol - a good knife of high craftmanship was a valued thing. So you proposed by leaving this important weapon/tool/status indicator in the hands of your intended, rendering yourself (symbolically) unarmed and defenseless in the process. It’s pretty cool.

I am a little high but what if people proposed with beautiful, intricate knives. Ladies would gather around the table and be like “guess what finally happened!!” And pull this beautiful, intricate dagger out of her purse and all the other ladies would gasp and congratulate her
