I originally posted this in Community, probably should have put it here.
I'm sure no one remembers me, but anyways I felt like posting today. I used to be on this board everyday but have been away for several months. It wasn't a conscious decision, but never the less it happened. I really miss it. I bought a few knives before I quit my job to become the "manager of the house and kids". Before that I was a manager of the IT department at a consulting firm. I did manage to assemble a modest collection, BM Pinnacle, MT LCC, Original Battle Mistress, LM Wave, Marbles Woodcraft. I still would love to get my hands on the following: Original AFCK, Randall Mod 1 or 14, Sebenza. Since I have been out of work, the funds just aren't there. And I am ashamed to say I don't even carry knives on me anymore, oh no, donning flame suit... Again not a conscious decision, just that I am at the kids schools all the time, after September 11, afraid to pull on out or I'll get locked up...LOL just kidding, but you know what I mean. The sheeple really have a strange look now. Don't get me wrong I still love knives, and they are nearby, within reach usually. Sorry for the wet blanket story, I hope I get that feeling back, back in the days when my Pinnacle was clipped inside my pajamas, when I used to carry my little neck knife, when my pocket clip used to scratch everything, the dining room chairs, my truck, the walls in my house... I guess I have a new hobby, I got a Honda Sabre VT1100 motorcycle recently, and they have a great little forum, thesabregroup.com. and my bbs urges are somewhat fulfilled there on a daily basis. I know, you say for the price of a bike, you could buy a hell of a lot of knives, but you can't buy them at 4.9 percent for 3 years, and the wife understood that a little more than having a knife for everday of the year, not much more. But she is wonderful, for supporting me anyways, whatever my interests, and I am truly lucky to be spending so much time with my wonderful son and daughter, and not having to commute in horrendous MAss traffic, or answering to some asswipe boss. Thanks for listening to me ramble, and overall life is good, and I will never stop loving knives.
