Damon, welcome. First thing is that you have to learn to never mess with John & his Commanders
I think he's the biggest Commander fan.
Term: Usual Suspect (Originated By Les Robertson)
Defination:
Do you check the Emerson forum (10) times a day?
Do you fondle and look at the Emerson in your pocket more then your girlfriend/wife?
If not carried, do you open your safe at night before you go to sleep to give your knives another coat of Tuff Cloth.
Do you wish you lived next door to the Emerson facility so you can go through their garbage to find a rare mismarked/misground blade.
Do you read all you can about the knives.
Are you friends with Les Robertson.
Did you buy a digital camera just so you can post pictures of your knives.
Do you own a Emerson, either custom or production.
Do you have a usual suspect t-shirt.
Do you have a Emerson catalog. (Any year)
Do you have an Emerson Sticker.
Do you beg other people to sell you their Emersons.
Does you boss ask you,"How much was that knife, How much do I pay you"
Did you call Emerson in panic to send you a replacement screw for the pocket clip because your screwdriver slipped & gouged the screw head.
Did you ever send a custom back to Emerson for reburshing because your wife put a tiny scratch/scuff on the bolster with her diamond ring when she was using you prized possession to cut price tags off her stuff after a day of shopping. Then she swears that the scratch was already there, but you know it wasn't there because you know every curve & inch of your knife & would have noticed it. At first you say to yourself that it's only a tiny scuff mark. After a few days the scuff mark actually disappears but you know that it was there. I can't find it on the knife anymore, but it is there. It eats away at you until you can't take it anymore & you send it back to Emerson. THEN, you don't have the knife for a month. Do don't want to carry your other Emersons because those you designated as put in safe only, then......you get your knife back & now it's too nice to carry anymore, so you start carrying a Lightfoot...... (Docter says I'm getting much better now
)
Well, that's all I can think of right now. Please add your definations. I'm sure there are much more crazy definations out there.
