Greetings, BF, and happy 2023. As part of my self-improvement for the year, I have decided to stop buying knives for a bit so that I can get to know my collection a bit better. To do so, I thought I would start by carrying a different knife out of my collection every day or so. Since another aspect of my self-improvement included deactivating my Facebook and Instagram accounts, I figured this is the best place to chronicle my journey that should take us through a good chunk of the first half of the year if I stick with it. NOTE: My dates are in m/d/y format.
Speaking of which, my collection is quite eclectic, so parking this in the General section seemed most appropriate. (Mods - if there is a better home for this thread, feel free to move it.) I have something that should interest most aficionados, so if you stay tuned long enough, you will hopefully see something you think is as cool as I think it is. I may not update this every day, but I will try and stay on top of it as closely as my busy life allows.
Feel free to comment and ask questions, and I will attempt to address them when I can. I am all about sharing. As an urban dweller, I am not particularly hard on my knives, but they are tools and all will get used as my primary parter of material when a material requires parting. Some of these clearly get thumped on more than others, but they all are “users” to some extent, albeit potentially negligible for some.
Worth noting, none of these items are for sale or trade, so please don’t bother asking.
I hadn’t decided whether I was going to memorialize this effort or not, so I am a few days behind. Without further ado, I hope you enjoy my knives.
4/1 UPDATE: I have bought a few knives recently because KNIVES but still intend to finish what I started here because this is fun. I have also sold off quite a few knives recently, so at least there is some semblance of balance.
