Two things:-

visit to my mother's aunt's house when I was about 5 and handling keris and other artifacts sent to her by her son who lived in Malaya for a number of years after release from Changi at end of WWII.

at age 12 my grandfather gave me his small collection knives and daggers that he had collected in the period 1918 to about 1930.
