What do you do with all of your stickers?

I was going through and sorting stuff around my workbench today, and I realized between knife and gun stuff I probably have enough stickers to wallpaper my house. Most of them just stay in the box in case I trade something off, but that got me thinking. Do any of you actually use them? Would you even care if you got traded something as LNIB, but the sticker was missing? Would you even notice? I'm starting to think there's a multi-billion dollar industry out there just printing off stickers that never get used.
 
I put one of the Microtech stickers on my suv because the claw matches the color of it (sort of) and it doesn’t say “microtech”
I like This logo:

I’d throw my Hinderer stickers on everything I own if it was just the logo, or if it didn’t say “knives” on it.
But those DLT, SMKW and other dealer stickers are either thrown away or just stay in a box forever

I find anti gun people and stick them to them.


Actually, um I do this:

Currently: SIG, Steyr, Canik, Geissele, Zastava, Manticore, Spyderco, RGT, and the calibers that are all faster than dialing 911.

As they get too worn I replace them with something else. I'm out of room on it right now.
 
I put mine on my tool bench. Sometimes my kids will see one they think is cool and it winds up on their bike or in their room. GPK has some pretty good ones.
 
I like stickers for safes, drawers, tool boxes etc. It sometimes helps remember which drawer to look in. Even if the sticker itself isn’t what is in the drawer. It keeps the drawers from all looking the same.

I do not save boxes, so saving stickers to sell with a knife never entered my mind.

With that said, if you don’t want to use them. I bet a large accumulation of them could be sold.
 
I started throwing them out or giving them to my kids about 3 years afo in my attempts to declutter my work areas, and house in general. I'm to the point now that it usually goes immediately into the garbage if it's not part of a "new in box" knife that I'm unsure if I'll use it, collect it, or sell it.

I had to start doing the same with the foam pouches and microfiber wipes thay come with knives and things, just way too many.
 
Logo only stickers either go on my hard hats (I get a new one every 6 months) or my RTIC water jugs (replacement one gal and half gal every xmas).

If they say “knives” or “firearms” or the logo is the name (i.e. Ruger, most recent gun purchase) then they go on the inside of my shop door so I’m not advertising “scary” stuff to the general public.
 
They usually go to my eldest, who likes stickers and also occasionally makes mixed media art. I tend to be more of a minimalist when it comes to stickers, often even removing stickers and emblems from items that come with them.
