Yorvet shook his head, narrowing his eyes. "You are dense, Kolt. I'm not sure the horse thing helped." He leaned against the desk. "The knife is a part of you." He said slowly like talking to a dense child. "You are bonded with it. Even if I took it, it would always return to you."
Kolt snorted shaking his head. "That's about as dumb as my father's dollar diplomacy policy he tried a couple years ago. How can I be bonded with a knife! It's a knife!"
"The same way you can be changed into a horse, Kolt. It's called Magic."
Dollar Diplomacy -the effort of a country to promote financial or commercial interests abroad or to use its financial resources to affect foreign relations
Added Info -"There is no secret out this new policy of diplomacy and the American dollar going hand in hand; of envoy and banker playing partners. It is often lauded and extolled in official circles." Those words were written in 1910, jut theer President William Taft introduced "dollar diplomacy" as an American foreign policy. But the Taft administration's attempts at influencing other nations and protecting U.S. interests abroad with cash did not fly with Woodrow Wilson, who publicly denounced the practice in 1913. Despite Wilson's objections, dollar diplomacy (both the term and the policy) are still with us over 100 years later.
