I love living vicariously through you guys and checking out all the pictures you post. It's one of the best parts of my mornings. 
Pictures don't always show the angle that I want to see though... And sometimes color, size, and dimensions can be distorted. To get that info, I usually turn to YouTube reviews. It can suck to have to wade through a 15 - 30 minute video to find the size of a knife in hand, or to see a particular angle, etc... Only to find out that the reviewer doesn't end up handling the knife, or the low resolution/compression ate all of the details I was trying to see.
I was thinking I would start posting embedded, 30 - 60 second, high resolution videos to go along with the pictures I post. Is that something you guys would be interested in seeing... Or maybe it's just a waste of time?
As examples (set to a high resolution for best viewing):
REK Sparrow
Spartan Harsey Damasteel (custom)
Olamic Cutlery Honduran Rosewood/S90V Whippersnapper
Rick Hinderer XM-18 3" Wharncliffe
Olamic Cutlery Timascus/Damasteel Largo Busker
