Are Knife Related "Worth It?" Threads Worth It?

I hate when the thread seems like a “tell me about my knife I just inherited”.

Everyone wants to help out someone with a family heirloom.

Then the OP never comes back. Never answers specific questions we ask so we can give a better answer. Never says thanks. Or even worse. Comes back to post the eBay auction link.

Makes me feel cheap and used.
Some day this thread may be a family heirloom!

I'd like to get some information about this thread...which I just came across while cleaning out the attic of a deceased relative's home.

Can anyone help with this?

I'm not trying to sell it, though I would also like to speak with you about your about your car's extended warranty...
 
No.

Every single person on BF owns more knife than they need in a practical sense, which then boils the question down to 'are nice things worth it?' Kinda dumb, IMO. Not even a chalk outline left on that old horse to beat.

And then there are the inevitable worn-out analogies of 'my Casio keeps as good or better time than your Rolex' or 'a Kia will get you to work the same as a Ferrari' that come flooding in. It gets super old. 😴

Such threads are usually snark-bait and make me wish for an 'ignore thread' feature. Why? Because I can't look away--waiting for the inevitable spectacle of a blow-out (*blush*) or worse, stepping in the pewp myself by participating.

Thanks, Blues! I feel better now... 😀
 
Why pay for the thread at all? Why not just steal one? Is the juice sweeter when you don't pay for it?

By the way...so that I don't get in trouble with the head pirate in charge, all of my threads are "goods and services" only...not "friends and family" or "net to me".

So, no need to hit the report button. Slowly back away from that button...

...Do it now!

Now, wasn't that worth it?
I'll take three! I think you'll find that I have quite a few vouches and lots of karma on my end.
 
First you need a gold membership. Super Mod doesn't cut it. :)
