There is a guy at work who seems to know everything. He's border line rude, and is nosy to boot.
It doesn't matter what the subject is, he knows it all.
Well as of late I have been getting tired of his garbage.
Today I was minding my own business reading the latest issue of blade during lunch, when he came over looked at what I was reading and said, " knife magazine?" "Yeah." I replied. It just happened to be open to the section, what to do with your 400.00 knife. As soon as he read this he immediatley said, "why would I want to spend 400.00 dollars on a knife?" "You probably wouldn't," I snapped. He continues, "I could buy the best knife there is, a kabar for 90.00." "Bullcrap, the kabar's not the best knife in the world."Bullcrap it isn't, he snapped. I explained how solid a project one is made compared to his kabar. He asked me If I knew how a kabar is made, after stating yes, he then proceded to tell me.
I pulled the sebenza out of my pocket and handed it to him stating it's price. He asked what made it cost so much, all knives cut. So I told him it was like comparing a mercedes to a yugo. And that I'll show him a project 1 tomorrow.
This guy want's to go to the forest with me this weekend. I think I'll take along my surefire m6's and after it gets dark I can show him what a real 350 dollar flashlight can do also

If you see him with something nice, tell him sucks, and that you can get what he has for a lot less money. 
Since discovering/buying my Swamp Rat Camp Tramp, the Kabar just sits in the box.
