But after 20 years of witchcraft, my attitude towards the athame changed from caution to delight. Every time I take the athame in my hands, I think of the millions of people who have used their blades as magical tools throughout the centuries.

How to use it depends only on you. .Jason Manky. .At the beginning of the book, Jason Manky talks about the history of ritual knives, their role in religion and magic, and the types of athames.
