I have some where around 5000 knives

I am trying to picture 5,000 knives. I picture myself walking into Smokey Mountian Knife Works in TN, that is the only thing that could come close.

This should help put it in perspective. I was never very good at saving money but have become an expert at accumulating knives. I have been buying and putting away for retirement for a long time now. The last couple of years I have been weeding and selling some on ebay.

These boxs are just the ones in my office that I have been trying to sort through and decide on keepers, sellers and traders. I have so many I dont even know what I have. LOL

This is a look into the top of one of them

These are some new ones I hope will appreciate nicely, some limiteds some general issue.

Yea I know, I am totaly disorganized and I need to figure out a feasible storage plan, other than 40 cardboard boxs. LOL

Okay, maybe its more than 5000. I haven't realy sat down and counted.

DAMN! THATS ALOT OF KNIVES It would be nice to sift through the boxes though, i know personally if i came across any old elephant toes, etc. i'd have a freakin stroke. You could always donate to those of us with out that many knives
