General talk, and gossip....... Knife related, personal qurstions, or whatever ?

First Question: Why Me? Who am I, why am I going through all this...?
Vague answer....


I'm usually an opinionated person, for better or worse. I have a Strong personality, if you've noticed from my posts Here over the years? I'm destined for a rocky start, if I'm being Honest.
That's Ok.

IRL, for some reason, Idk why, but people will Love me, or Hate me....not so much middle ground.
I make friends, and enemies Quickly, but Here.....I'll try to behave......

I'm an enigma, I'm a renegade, I'm a fringe member of society, a Troll, and.... A critical thinker.
I want to make knives.
I like to imagine the underdogs winning. Even if that's not true. Idk either way?
Yes, I'm a Taurus. Yes, I'm stubborn and difficult. Yes, I love food (probably more than life itself)
And Yes, my wife says I'm full of It, and have delusions of grandeur (she hates me too, btw)...Haha.

I laugh at myself, and the world, and I'm somewhat self deprecating.
Nothing is safe.


I'm not for everyone..... I have different views what knives Should be. I design & make them how I want them to be. I'm a control freak.
Maybe, I'm Not for You....& That's Ok.
Or, maybe if you stick around, and give me a chance?
I just might make you your Favorite knife.
That's what I ultimately want.
I'm a people pleaser!

*Edit to Add.....days....later.....
(I probably had a beer when writing this schock)
Hahaha....

Had to clean my glasses. I was about to search what a fridge member of society means. Probably karma or something since I'm a bit of a fridge person. Far less of a people pleaser way more of a people annoyer.

I don't feel I do it on purpose, but I almost always disagree with everyone, on every subject....I distinctly remember the first time I realized it when I was in Kindergarten....ha
I knew I was a little different

Awesome, thanks for the help ...I don't actually know how to do anything.
I don't see options on my phone for locking out posts or stickies or whatnot?

I figured it will take me a couple months to figure things out

Sometimes it takes time for moderator permissions to kick in. If you don't have the options like in the picture below I can do whatever you need until you get permissions, just let me know.

Thanks for allowing us a chance to get to know you better. I really enjoyed being a part of your pass around last year.
I have been called very opinionated a time or two myself. I look forward to seeing what you post. Thanks again.

That, was Very fun....if there was interest for more pass a rounds, id definitely think about doing another. In my opinion, I think it was very successful, I had lots of interest, and many people got to see some of my work first hand.
I think it really pushed me to start to step up my game in certain areas, and I think I have.

Hopefully those who experienced That knife, and compare it to newer/future ones, will be happier and see the gains...

Thanks again, I owe All who participated alot of appreciation for taking time out of their busy days..... Thanks.

-i need to sticky That pass a round, and my Other Give Aways here in this sub

I remember we got in trouble because there was a "pajamas day" and those of us that had the footed (footie?) bottoms were running around sliding on carpet and doing the static shock trick on anyone we could catch. That is my only lasting memory from that time period.

Now I collect (accumulate) knives. Perfectly normal child to perfectly normal adult.
