Funny I just went to K-Mart tonight to get my daughter a lock for her bike. I always walk over to see the knives and multi-tool! They have a dead ringer knock off of the Gerber Multi-Lock from some company called Carolina Knife and Tool. What a rip!
While going through K-Mark I saw a buck knife that looked like an Odyssey and had the name but didn't look like any I have seen online even at their website. I need to cut that sentance don't I? Oh yeah, I was looking for snow boots.

Me too. I always take a peek, hoping that there just might be something I've never seen before. I don't mean at K-mart, but general stores that have knife displays. I think it's become a habit to look for the knife section of a store. Even if I didn't come there looking to buy one.
Like driving by an accident, ya just can't help but look, so yep, also guilty, even though I know I won't buy there, just have to look at the steel in the case. But at least the wife always knows where to find me when she's ready to go!

My mind is made up,
So don't confuse me with the facts!
Whenever I take my wife grocery shopping I tell her I'll be in the "library" aka the magazine section. I read the knife mags that I can't afford to subscribe to
. At least she always knows where I'm at.

I too am guilty of such charges. I always have to look at the knife section I even leave the house with that one thought in mind look at the knives. At Wal-Mart I look at the knife section even though it hasn't changed in a long time. I go to the mall just to go to the cutlery shop I am truely knife sick what can I do?
in my house, we refer to that section of the store as "the toy department"--and we all know that the one who dies with the most toys wins.
remember how you always used to run for the toy department when you were a kid, just in case they had a new whatzit, and then your mom had to drag you away when it was time to go? same thing, only now we're bigger and all our toys are smaller (and sharper)...
we're lucky enough to live close to two knife stores, and we make pilgrimages there on weekend afternoons if we think our budgets can withstand the results (ha ha) and now, of course, we've got to go and point to things so that santa knows what we want in our stockings.
see, bad enough you guys have only one knifeknut in the family. between the two of us, sometimes there's no one to play mom and drag the kiddies away from the toys...
