How many "pix of knives"?

I love the knife pics. I'm totally impressed with how creative some of you guys are with your photography.

Hey . . . bananas are a lot harder to cut than you might first imagine . . . don't you remember that thread back in the day where the guy was cutting a banana from a bunch and almost died . . . or . . . something like that ? Who has a link ?
Oh and there was a photo wasn't there to help us understand the technical difficulties involved in banana bunch surgical standards.

I remember that one and can find the link for you . . . oh, who am I kidding, I keep that thread linked in my signature, this took no effort.

OK- I should probably change my name to Old Curmudgeon, but really how many pictures of everyone's knives do we need to see in a thread like this? Does anyone actually got through 14,000 plus posts to see what everyone else owns? I think people are just posting here as some form of ego gratification (forum-bation if you will). If someone wants to show their latest acquisition or how cool their collection is, why don't they post it in a subject-specific forum (latest purchase, smoothest flipper, best steel, etc.) and be done with it. Don't threads run out of steam at some point; can't we just make this a sticky?

I hear you, excessive knife photo posting is the worst.

I'm not sure what subject you would expect more pictures of on a knife forum? I love all of the "show your latest acquisition..." threads. They are pure knife porn to me, but I just really like knives, like just inna general sorta way, donchya know?

I just came up with something that could be truly irritating. WAY WORSE than stills.
Wannahearit?hereitgo!
It's just a matter of time : a chip in your knife with a motion sensor among other things. Every cut is documented for angle, force applied, duration, atmospheric pressure, ambient temperature, user temperature and pulse (oh why not add blood pressure as well), forward and aft video recorders to capture it all and GEO satellite position on the planet (this one at first but others such as mine can be added over time).
At the end of the day plug in, down load and share in the forum.
Now does that top an irritating knife photo with an interesting back ground or what ?

I don’t mind the pics. I have bought knives I would never thought about buying due to someone posting a pic.

What drives me crazy are the band spanking new $500+ knives posted in the “what are you carrying” threads. No idea how people carry and use these knives and they stay pristine. :rolleyes:

Maybe a bit less than $500.00 but here's a dirty Fallkniven PC pic for you.
We need more dirty knife pics. :)

I do roll my eyes sometimes when I see a forum member use a $500 knife to cut up a banana and talk about how great of a slicer it is. =)

WHY? I understand that you can cut up a banana just as well with a $5 knife, but a guy uses the one that he carries...for lots of daily tasks. No flames, just don't get your point.

I really like the way your knife looks with the back ground you chose. :thumbsup:
:p you know what might be even better ? If you would throw the photo away and just describe it to me in every detail in text :p
what dahyathink :thumbsup: :thumbsdown: :thumbsup: :thumbsdown: ?

A photo is worth 1000 words. Some of those are both crappy and uninteresting photos. So mine must be worth more than 1000 words...

I've got an 8 million megapixel, dual lens supercamera in my pocket that also makes phone calls(or so I'm told), texts and posts the photos from said camera here. All in just a couple of minutes. I think I'll do that instead.
