My name is Tim and I am a FAILURE.

I have been using knives all my life, mostly cheap Okapi's in my native South Africa, but I never really had much of an interest in the specifics. The only knives I had for a long time were the 2 gnarly diving knives that I bought when I lived in the Middle East.

When I lived in California I spent a lot of time camping and backpacking and I needed a knife.
So like many who fall into this abyss, I started out just wanting one good knife. I walked into Dom's Outfitters in Livermore CA and asked for the best he had. I walked out with a Benchmade 615. On the next visit, a Gerber LMF II. Then a few more Benchmades & Spydercos from Redwood Trading Post & that did me fine for a long time.

In Feb 2009 I walked into Grindstone Cutlery in Ft. Wayne, IN and bought my first Busse and then found Bladeforums.

And so it started.

Within just over a year I had this:
