Hey guys, i'm new here and just recently started collecting. I so far have 4 knives(Sog Flash 2, CRKT drifter stainless steel, Spyderco persistence, and a jaguar balisong). Just wondering how you guys got started and what your favorite knife is. Also here is a pic of my EDC.

I got started as a kid. Have always loved knives but was out of them for quite awhile. I have recently started collecting again. You found a great site here, the best I have seen on the net. I personally like Auto Knives.
 
you should run away from this site.:eek:

i started collecting as a child, then a few month ago i found this site and started investing all my money into the knives i got to know on this forum.
 
haha well for some reason whenever i try to buy a knife off any site, i can never bring myself to actually buy it, i always just go back to looking at more!
 
I got my first knife when I was 5 and have collected them since. I have 15 in my edc rotation and over 50 in my collection (either junkers or family knives that I dont use, and field knives too big for edc). Right now my favorite is either my CRK Umnumzaan or Ray Lacinoco tactical tanto folder... Just got a strider pt and murray carter neck knife though and haven't gotten to use them much
 
Welcome to BF! I started seriously collecting about 15 years ago; prior to that it was a few knives I had been given or bought on a whim. Since then, my hobby has experienced the two "w" blockers to getting more knives: wife (had to be convinced) and wallet. Have fun learning about knives - you've come to the right place. BF is a treasure trove of information.

Welcome revii.

I got started 30 plus years ago collecting old timers and schrades.

Now I'm collecting Hinderers and Busses.
 
Welcome to the sickness, do a search, IIRC there's a 12 step program available somewhere. :)
 
First off Welcome to BF.
My grandfather gave me a Swiss Army Knife by Victorinox when i was 5, from then on i have collected knives, personally my favorites are tactical fixed blades, my absolute favorite knife is a Ontario Knife Company Mark 3 USN Seal Knife i got for $20 at a flea market.
Good luck in your collecting.
 
Hey thanks for the welcome guys! I like how you guys are saying run while you still can or welcome to the sickness :p, i totally understand. Its just a fun hobby and even though its a lot of money at least you have something to show for it and your collection of knives could be a family heirloom.
 
Welcome to BF Revii

I think those ones that are saying "run" probably have the credit card in one hand, and the other hand ready to hit "submit" :D:D

And quite honestly, if this is a sickness, I don't wanna get well!
 
WELCOME!

Like many others, I got started as a kid. I got a Buck folder, and I quickly determined that having two Buck folders was better than having one, and that three was better than two. Then I got a Schrade folder, and I realized that having two Schrade folders was better than having one, and so on.

Now, as an adult, I have come to realize that 10 Sebenzas are about all I can afford right now!
