Stupid thing you did that damaged a favourite knife of yours.

I had just bought a zt 0300. I went to the bathroom, was a public one, was edcing the 0300. When I finished, I pulled up my pants, and instead of leaving, I decided that since nobody could see me in account of being inside a bathroom, I should take out my 0300 and practice some tacticool moves. So I started to make my ninja moves, and I hitted one of bathroom very nice ceramic tiles with the tip of the knife, with a great deal of might. I was very compenetrated in the fight of imaginary bathroom foes. Don't laugh, Arnie fought two terrorist in True Lies, and James Bond last avatar attained his double 0 status with a bathroom kill also.
Well, the tip got damaged. I nicked the very tip fo the tip, and it hurts me more because the damage is minimal, the little stain of imperfection that ruins the paradise.

Snif.
 
You forgot about sticking the blade down deep into the crapper to disable the camera that got a photo of your butt to track your movements. Rookie. Acting out movie fantasies in the crapper is more than stupid. Sell your knives and start collecting stamps.
 
I had a nice Buck 110 that got shorted in between two contractors and burnt a half circle in the blade.
 
When I was a young (and very dumb) pre-teenager, I decided it would be cool to pop the infiniti logo emblem off a neighbor's car to in order to show my friends at school. I stuck my SAK Sentry between the car and emblem, pryed... and bent the tip of the knife (emblem didn't budge) :( needless to say I never tried that again. Many years later, I sent the Sentry back to Victorinox, and they fixed the bent tip for me... Always will be a reminder of the mistakes of youth.

I did the same thing once with a SAK. Felt kind of stupid afterwards, but also relieved that the SAK gave it's life to prevent me from getting electrocuted.
 
I flame anodised a Buck 110 that I carried from about the age of 12 to 16.

It still cut, just didn't hold an edge. Good thing the most frequent thing it cut was me.

I freehand convex sharpened a Schrade Switch-It (raise your hands if you remember those) on an old Buck oilstone until it lost half its blade width. Never cut anything with it, either.

Stabbed a branch with my Spyderco Paramilitary, broke off the tip. Green branches may be more durable than S30V ground that thin. Live and learn.

What is this, a confessional? :foot:
 
Had a black bladed blur that I used to cut a coke can in half. Has quite a few scratches on it now but still cuts great.

Ouch.

So what's your opinion on me practicing throwing the knife and have the edge nicked against a stone in the ground...with a zt 0100?
true story also.

Are you sure you want to admit this stuff? I know all too well that sometimes just because you can share a story that it doesnt always mean that you should. Im going to go out on a limb here and say I dont think their are many sympathizers to the way of the mall ninja. And I dont mean that as a dig on you. But practicing "tactical moves" in a bathroom and throwing knives at rock filled dirt?
 
I have broken at least 2 tips trying to use one of my knives as a screwdriver. That is why I bought a leatherman multitool for my truck and one for my pack.
 
I dropped my new benchmade on my bathroom tile floor trying to flick it out and flip it into a reverse grip and rolled the edge of the knife right on the belly. It was about a day old when this happened, and I was not happy. I'm just glad I didn't break the tip off

It is your knife, do what you want with it. You aren't putting anyone in danger and you are just having fun, do whatever you want as long as you are the only one getting hurt :p
 
Wow to the Op just wow, I agree you shouldn't own knives at all, That is irresponsible and even worse it makes us people who carry knives as tools and nothing else look bad. How old are you might I ask?? Sounds like your not very old. My advice is put the knives up until you grow up a little bit , or else you might wind up hurting yourself or someone else pretty bad. I would go with hurting yourself first though, If i had to bet.
 
I've never really done anything bad to my knives except accidentally bang the tip of my Fixed Skyline on the concrete. Nothing major.

I never bring my knives out of my pocket in the bathroom because I have this fear that I'm going to do something that causes the knife to end up in the toilet.
 
I made a few knives smaller when I was learning how to use a belt sander.
 
knife throwing contest with a spydie persistence, threw it at a maple round, blade stuck in nicely but the handles blew right off..... kinda threw it too hard
 
Loaned my Spyderco Para 2 in S90V to someone for about 20 seconds and the got a knife with a serrated blade back.. :grumpy:

Took about an hour to fix it....
 
I have thrown to every possible target and type of ground all my knives.
I practice fast drawing in front of a mirror from every pocket, clothing, and then practice all my moves wich I learned from wmpyr, michael janich, kelly mckann, keating, jim wagner, of course from youtube.
I still dont have a set of tires to stab at, but getting to it.
I play with my knives in every conceivable way I can think of. Yesterday my yojimbo 2 sliced pepperoni, cheese, spread tomato sauce and colaborated lately in the distribution of my homemade pizza.
I enjoy using and abusing my knives.
