Problem with that theory is that all that's really happening is that we're feeding our own addictions. Really, when it comes down to it, I can't really blame y'all for my collection. Which is getting absurd, really. I should probably start selling stuff off. But despite the fact that being around like-minded folks encourages buying, and I've discovered plenty of knives I wouldn't have known about otherwise, I have nobody to blame but myself for buying the blades I have. I mean, I only bought stuff that I wanted, and considering how hard it is for me to get rid of some of them... Yeah. My fault.
