...as much as she loves me to smoke cigars in the house :eek:

But as she is the most beautiful talented and smart person I've ever met, she can be forgiven this wee fault.
 
You had me going there for a second. A spouse loving your khukuri collection...yeah....sure. But,as you say, they do put up with us. For that they deserve praise.

yes, praise indeed. She hasn't murdered me each time the triangular box showed up, after all ;)
 
There are frequent references to wives in the Cantina.

I only have an ex-wife. She is a good ex-wife.

But I doubt that I can express what I consider to be the wealth that those of you who have a life-companion/spouse who enriches your living, either actively or just by being with you.

I'm preaching to the choir, but if there were one aspect of life I wish I'd pursued more aggressively, it would be finding a woman for the rest of my life.

Congratulations to each of you.






Be well and safe.
 
Mine not only tolerates khuk's, but guns too ( as long as I don't call attention to them and let my aquisitions age a bit in the back of the closet for a few months ).

That's one of the benefits of the FBPP's ( Flat Black People Poppers ). They all look pretty much the same if you know what I mean.

Thank you very much. I appreciate it.
 
My wife thinks that Japanese swords are pretty but she said that she can't figure out what I see in Khukuris.
She said that "they don't even look good."
What does she know - she married me!
 
Show your wife how useful a khukuri can be, and she'll appreciate them more. Use one to make dinner and really wow her :D
 
My wife is taking lessons from the guys on the forum. She recently asked, "How does this work? Do I just hold the khukuri up in the air and then ask for what I want?"

Cast iron frying pans may become obsolete!
 
My girlfriend likes-... Er... Tolerates khukuris as well. Heck, one of the first things we did together was go and hack stuff up with khukuris.

We met on a Mexico trip and had a lot of time to talk, seeing as we were crammed in vans from Canada all the way down to the Baja Peninsula. Anyway, we got talking knives, and she started mentioning Miracle Blades...

Well, that wasn't the greatest thing to say to me, although I do find Chef Tony to be a fantastic spokesperson, even though what he sells is cheap and blech... I told her that I had knives that could chop through a Miracle Blade.

Of course, she didn't believe me.

So, we got back to good ol' Canada and one night at about 10pm, in the rain, we went to the back of my field where we have all kinds of brush and hacked down, chopped up, and otherwise created messes of havoc in the romantic atmosphere of a Maglite laying on the ground. She had a good time, but I still don't think she gets it.

That's fine. I can dig it. She does, however, steal my Kagas Katne or 10.5" BDC on occasion.

Hell, just yesterday my wife gave me marching orders to find a wood handled Pen Knife, a Seax, and a Sarge. I'd say she tolerates my knife collecting quite well! :D

Actually, I'm very up front with her about my knife purchases 95% of the time. I believe the quickest way to "curse" a knife (at least in my mind) is to go slinking around hiding it from her and having a guilty conscience from it.

This way also, when I die she'll have an idea what they're all worth, and won't sell off my meager collection for pennies on the dollar.

"Well..Gee...the Home Shopping Network says those are super hero rated knives they're selling for $25 per lot of ten, and this old thing is from some dusty village in the Himalayas, so I guess it's only worth $5 or so....." :rolleyes:
 
well my wife thinks my khuk's are ugly--man go figure i know they are beautiful and you all know they are--so how can this beautiful smart women be so dumb sometimes--man i gota get her trained better--LOL :eek: :) :eek:
 
My better half toletates my collection pretty well. Sure, she'd like to see me spend the money on stuff for our house, but she understands that I'm a man with few vices. I don't drink heavily (often). I don't smoke anything other than the occational cigar with old chums. She doesn't have to keep me on a leash as I stay close to the house. I guess she thinks i deserve a little reward of buying a knife every now and them (more now than then;)). She likes that the money goes to the people of Nepal and really respects what Uncle Bill and Yangdu do. She's a great woman. She has always been there for me, has never given me a reason to doubt her, and has never been someone that i was not proud to call my own. Most importantly, she inspires me to be a good man...or at least try to be.
