We all like knives - what else do you collect?

In no order: Guns, knives, Atwood tools, more guns, more knives, fly rods (about 6 or 8). And a few watches (<10).
 
Guns and camping stuff I can cook a 15 coarse meal on single burner camp stoves:D. I have a hard time not having 4-5 bicycles . I finally got a couple of good bikes a couple years ago. and thought those 2 were enough. But I have a hard time walking by an old school quality bike for little money. I usually fix them up and sell them . I was back down to my 2 Surly's and run across a mongoose fat tire bike on the clearance isle. I just got it adjusted and modified to suit me. Now I am working on a little Italian folding bike a co-worker brought to me in a basket the old dry rotted tires are Pirelli How can you say no to a bike with Pirelli tires:D

Guns and knives like the rest of you. But as I look around my house I see a ton of camping/backpacking gear and a few 40 or 50 golf clubs. Mainly putters.... If you are a golfer you probably understand.
 
On my travels with the South African Navy, space was always a problem. I started buying small items such as lapel pins and patches to remind me of where I'd been. Friends now send me patches or bring me pins while on their travels as I am easy to please.
 
I like to collect baseball hats, of brands I like/support, and I wear a hat almost everyday, so they all see some use, but they are relatively inexpensive and a nice way to show support for a particular brand/company
 
Guns,watches although I just have one right now,flashlights and rocks as in Geodes,agate and crystals.
 
Here are some of mine (mainly toys):

I collect art work. They are generally signed and numbered prints (have probably 100 unframed prints and ran out of wall space for framed stuff), but I also buy original art work from artists that I like who I think have a future. Most of the artwork tends to be paintings > landscapes and stills.
 
At the moment I'm seriously, seriously trying to not collect kerosene lamps. But it's proving very difficult to resist when there are so many different styles that I'm liking.
 
I can't stop building AR-15s! Had 11 at one point but a wife & kids managed to shrink my collection down to this. Still got a few unbuilt lowers squirelled away in the safe though :)

Oh, and USGI canteens, cups, and stoves. Don't know why, but I still love and use these things. Here's just a few.

Pipes are definitely the coolest so far!

And what's the general consensus regarding how many of one type of thing constitutes a collection? (lol that sounded so articulate and pretentious!)

I've got a load of belt buckles.. think I have about 7 or so vintage and cool ones.
 
I also accumulate Hells Angels support gear.
