AND A PLUMBER AIN'T GONNA HELP!!!

I just can't seem to stop the flow, and the leek just keeps getting bigger and bigger. Pretty soon, this leek may take over the whole house and render it uninhabitable!!:eek: Does anybody know how to stop a leek that's flowing this bad????? The damascus is in the mail as we speak.;)

I got my first leek a few years back, but for some reason they've crept back into the forefront of my passion for collecting and I keep needing another.
Hope they don't run out:D

You can't stop that problem, I have a few you may need to ad to your collection. You have a problem that only money can support and as soon as you think you have all the leeks, another will appear !!!

you're gonna like the Damascus version.

For your sake Mike, I hope so. I've know about the damascus for quite a while, but as soon as you changed your darn avatar to that pic a while back, I've had a little stream of drool hangin' off my chin!!:D
 
HA!

I have 4 that I vacuum sealed with desiccant packs after oiling the blades.
I'll check on them in a few months to see how that's holding up.
The 5th I EDC along with my BM Sentinel and ATS34 Mili.

To stop the Leek just BUMP the handle!

I have 3 that I have come in since this picture and a Gray Ti on the way. I guess at least with my problem there is an end in sight. How many Leeks are there 30, 40...?
 
Yeah, I tried that already.....but that's only getting worse too!! Got my first bump, the green Ti when it first came out, and foolishly thought that it would be enough:D

The worst part is that alot of the bumps have been discontined so long they are getting really hard to find. I wish you all the best with your afflictions. Hopefully, I won't catch the Leek thing. However, I do have a damascus and I love it. Many of my knives I could take or leave, but, if I could only have a few the DAM Leek would be right there near the top of the list. :thumbup:
 
When your basement fills with Leeks, call me. I'm a professional Leek Remover, and best of all, I work for free!

That Bump took a little trip to Oupa's Outback Workshop to get new scales. It didn't work out. Epoxy doesn't stick to Akulon. Oh well, I did get a nice blade etch out of it.

This thread inspired me. http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=495035&highlight=Fireball+Junkyard+Dog
 
As I mentioned over in the Composite Leek thread, I told myself a long time ago I wouldn't collect Leeks...

First I said, maybe a couple of the S30V Leeks, then I decided I wanted to do that Random FrankenLeek, which meant three more Leeks. Then Kershaw came out with the Damascus Leek, had to have one of those, of course.

Now there's the OCC Leek coming, I enjoy tv show enough and the knife looks cool enough, that I'll need to get one of those.

Of course we can't forget the Composite Leek, gotta have one of those too!

Don't get me started on the Bumps, (too late for that really since I already have a bunch of those)!
 
What kind of Leek is the second one down? It looks really nice. Kind of interested in the Random Leek right now...but not sure if I want another Tanto style blade.

It's a KS1660GD (Gold) Leek. I don't think it's in the regular lineup.
They still show up from time to time on the bay.
