The Sum of My Knife Knowledge – Part2

Thanks, Buzzbait. This is a fully worthy sequel to your "cabin fever" rant from last year. It boggles the mind to contemplate what next year's seasonal delirium will bring.

With regard to #8 it should be noted that Keith's actual post count is far greater than the number now attributed to him. He lost hundreds to the emergency server rescue measures taken a few months ago. Who knows how high the true number may be?

I am in complete agreement with #1 and the timing is perfect considering the tenor of recent threads on the subject of this particular knife. I, also, share your opinion of the large Classic.

Great entertainment!
 
Wow, see what funny and interesting stuff you write when you're off cigarettes? Here's to hoping you can keep it up. I really think you should lay off the crack though. :p
 
I think it's the East Coast Custom Knife Show. I'm in NE PA myself. I'm thinking about going if I can scrounge up money by then.
 
That combo of cabin fever and nicotine withdrawl makes for some fine writing. I feel for you Buzz, with your stag handled Dozier. I now have mine, and she is properly sheathed in Kenny Rowe finery. She is very insistent upon her Rowe sheath. However, I have a somewhat different set of problems...
1. instead of one dominant knife, Doris in buzz's case, I have a stable of medium sized fixed blades. All of them are clamoring for attention. I can only carry one of them at a time, and the jealousy and petty cattiness flows freely in my house of knives.
2. None of my knives have official first-person names, ala "Doris" However, I do have "the Platypus", which I suppose comes close to the "angry beaver". I need to know what arcane rituals need to be performed so I can have a knife speak to me and name itself.
3. I have a similar problem with my slipjoints being petty and competitive for my attention. I can only carry one of them per day. Yet for some reason, the ugliest and cheapest one seems to win more often than the beauty "Queens". Must be the delrin/1095 combo that speaks loudest.
4. I have disturbing dreams of knives that I do not have. After reading Jerry Shipman's story about his tornado ravaged semi-truck adventure in Blade, I had at least one or two nights filled with visions of Pronghorns. I now know that one is in my far flung future. I must not fight it, it has been preordained.
5. I continue to buy/order medium sized fixed blades. I have two more coming to me in the coming six months or so. I still will not be satisfied with all I have. ALL of them are quality blades, each worthy of personal and singular attention... yet I still get more. Everyone I know thinks that I am nuts. They do not understand, and I'm not sure I do to.

Ah well, thanks to Buzz for his 2003 Rant. I am looking forward to his 2004 cabin fever Rant already.

Bwahahahahaha!!!! That just made my day.

As for the East Coast Custom Knife Show, I don't know if I'll be there. I'm moving into my first house in March, and may be be a little busy and a whole lot of broke. What's odd is that I bought the house so I'd have more room for my knives, but now I won't have the money for any more knives. This bites!!!!
 
Hmmm, looked at your profile and what do I see?

Favorite Knife: Jens ANSO Hybrid

Thats it, I am going to tell Doris!



Thanks for your informative miniseries.
 
Buzz, Buzz, Buzz - how sad! Please shed your delusions. Doris knows; she knew as soon as you ideated your treacherous lust for the ANSO hybrid. They always know. Gird yourself for interminable retribution. Amen.
 
Buzzbait,

It looks like some of the folks here are tempted to board up your doors and windows and hide coffee and soda-pop from you just to see what you'll do.

Congratulations on your new house.
