So earlier tonight I'm sitting on the sofa watching TV with my wife and as almost always I have a tool, knife or gun in my hand and I'm fondling, touching, feeling and just "learning" what's in my hand. Believe it or not she accepts this as normal and no longer asks why are you doing that?
Well tonight she was looking over at me and I hear "what are you doing", I without realizing it was just smelling the Micarta on my ESEE-4! WTH?...
I had sold my other (used) 4 to a friend and got myself a new one and never realized that I love the smell of fresh, new Micarta. Now I can't stop holding it to my nose and smelling it, oh boy I need help.
Please tell me I'm not alone in this, this must be normal.
