I'm not a lurker, but there must be a lot of them out there. There are over 3,500 members, but it seems like only a couple hundred post regularly. Come forth, Lurkers of the night!

Ebbtide · Oct 17, 1999

OK, I admit it... I'm a knifeknut & a Bladeforaholic. There I said it out loud. It's not my first post, but I wanted to say a proper Hi! to you all. Hi! I'm not a maker & I don't consider myself a collector, but then again, why am I surrounded by knives, bayonets and a couple of swords? This is a great site. I look forward to loggin' on each day, Keep up the good work!!!

Okay, so I've posted a couple of times, but I'm still new to the forums. I've learned quite a lot already, just by reading the other posts. I'm so impressed with the forums that I made it my "Home Page". I find myself just coming back over and over again! Maybe it's because I find it comforting to know that I'm not the only one who has a passion for blades!!!

Kodiak PA · Oct 17, 1999

Welcome aboard Ebbtide & Lagerman to the greatest knife site in the world.

Three stooges....I like that, Bald1, Jailhack and Kodiak....that almost rhymes.

STIHL · Oct 17, 1999

Well ive been a member from almost day one , but just recently started posting.Am i considered a lurker?

LabRat · Oct 17, 1999

I have just joined the BF and posted a few times. I guess I should formally say HI if I want to be part of the community. Yes! I am a knifeaholic like most of you. My wife wants me to find a KA support group so I joined the forum. Somehow I don't think I'll get much help overcoming my addiction in here

. Fortunately, she supports my interest as long as I can put food on the table. I must say, you guys certainly have some lively conversations. I'm still laughing about the Batman/Kydex thread!

Hi everyone. My name is Robert...and I'm a Knife-a-holic. I started posting in May '99 just looking to buy knives...ended up selling a few...and then sharing my limited blade knowledge with others. Suddenly I'm a Senior Member who logs in repeatedly at work, AND at home in the course of my day. What happened?!?

Let's see some posts guys! We ARE interested in what you have to say. There are some incredible sources of knife knowledge on these Forums, so take advantage of them! NOW!

BTTT!!
