I have never really been a fanboy of anything. I don't include family, rooting for the U.S., or my favorite sports team as well, thats just par for the course...

In the last 6 weeks or so, I have bought the following Lone Wolf Knives:

T2 FRN Tactical used from a board member
T2 Red/Black Micartra Ebay, NIB
T2 Red/Black Micartra Ebay, NIB
T2 Red/Black Micartra board member, used, dinged up, but still great edge.

T3 FRN Ranger Ebay, NIB (btw, this knife is just ridiculous)
Cheyenne, BladeHQ

Ordered but haven't received yet:
T1 Cocobolo serrated, Ebay, used
Long Horn, plain, black G10, Ebay
Dark Raven x 2

that's 10 lone wolf knives in like 6 weeks...In addition, I don't even like the red/black micarta that much...i much prefer the FRN...

Oh, for the record, I absolutely love the Cheyenne...

But I think it is official, I am a Lone Wolf fanboy...(Next most frequent things I own would be BM, with 2 M4 Ritter Grips (the QC on them was not good), Vex Tanto, Mini Grip, Ambush, and Mini Barrage, I will get a kulgera and probably a 755)....

Please forgive me if it shows.

Lone Wolf is a really underrated manufacturer in my opinion. I love the blackfoot that I have
 
Forgiven. :thumbup:

I think there is a bit of a fan boy in all of us even though we don't like/want to admit it.

Although "fan boy" may be the wrong phrase. It can be associated as someone ignorant to information for the sake of "their" company.

I would call myself a BIG fan of Spyderco and Chris Reeve Knives, but can accept criticisms without heated, air headed, disputes. :D
 
Proclaiming your preference for a product or company is fine. It is when you allow that preference to cloud or obscure objectivity that it becomes amusement for others.

Sounds like you are becoming a collector of Lone Wolf Knives. When you come here spouting about how we all need to toss out everything we own and kneel before the almighty Lone Wolf Knives...then you have transitioned to a fan boy.
 
not quite there yet. fanboys post pics of said knives on every opportunity...well? we're waiting :D
 
"I would call myself a BIG fan of Spyderco and Chris Reeve Knives,"

Same with me. I have great knives from both of these.

You're only a fanboy if you refuse to acknowledge other people's praise of their own preferred knives, or if you refuse to acknowledge their criticisms of Lone Wolf knives.

It's possible to be enthusiastic about something and not be a fanboy.
 
are the T2's made by Fantoni? if I remember correctly
you might like the Fantoni Harsey HB01
