The Duke of Sussex retains his royal status and his place in the order of precedence. Just four individuals have to die before Prince Harry would become His Majesty Henry the Ninth, by the Grace of God, of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and of His other Realms and Territories King, Head of the Commonwealth, Defender of the Faith.

It's a lovely gift but just out of concern for the "for life" aspect: when you say you "get them sharpened", are you taking care that it's by hand using whetstones? Because most sharpening services will use an electric sharpener, and even the best electric sharpeners strip so much material from a knife that it starts affecting the balance very quickly. Plus, even once a year for half a lifetime will leave it a noticeably smaller knife than it started as.

I almost made this error myself, with a beautiful classic Wuesthof, which is why I thought to warn you. Please take no offence if it hasn't been necessary. Have a lovely anniversary.
