Dude.. we really do have extremely close tastes. In guns, knives, and apparently even cars. I love your Beemer, broski. She's beautiful, and looks fast just sitting there!

To wit … I just showed my wife this pic of a 247, and suggested it would make a really nice retirement gift. She said for $700 I can keep looking at the picture. :confused:

Pardon me for a moment while I wipe up the drool. And the tears.

I'd like to tell you my opinion of that, but I know who I'm dealin' with, Danny Linguini here.... so I ain't sayin' nothin'. My name's Johnny Tightlips, and I ain't about to tell you how beautiful that Owl is. Tony Lasagna had a few thoughts, that's why he's in the Pines.

Seriously, though, people get whole CARS, whole HOUSES (in globbin' Arizona, for that matter), hell, some people get a RETIREMENT HOME from their kids as a thank-ya-very-much for a lifetime of work! You deserve this knife. How many $700 knives do ya have?
 
Wednesday's have mostly gone to Wilson or Wilkins lately, but I went solid Wood (well, actually Dymondwood) this time around with the BMK full-sized Crooked River. This one's got the same long and pointy thing going on as many of my Russian knives, but is distinctively American with its beefy woodsiness, its classic clip-point blade, and of course it's USA made.

It's got my favorite clip with its black-oxide split arrow...

..and I like it even better with that orange backspacer replaced by standoffs.

I don't know whether laugh or frown. Persevere and good luck when retirement comes.

Just laugh. Thing is, she’s right. She’s usually good about letting me indulge in my whims, and I wasn’t even serious when I showed her that pic. I want to retire next year, so I don’t need to be throwing that kind of money around at absolute non-essentials. I love looking at some of these beautiful pieces, but she asked what I’d actually do with it, and the fact is I’d just put it away somewhere and look at it once in awhile - no way I’d go walking around with a knife that expensive, much less use it and risk damaging or otherwise devaluing it. So I’m fine. I picked up a couple of really nice knives these last few weeks that I like looking at, fidgeting with, and using, and I figure there might be one or two more at some point, but they’ll most likely be of the modestly priced variety. I’m a very casual hobbyist - there’s a lot of nice stuff out there in the $100-$200 range that I’d be more than happy to have. I’ll leave the higher end stuff to the hard core users and collectors.

But damn those Olamics are some kinda nice. o_O
