Wives / Girlfriends Buy You Knives?

Hi all-
no she never bought one for me,
but i could not buy a single one without her support. We have two small children and she s not employed, so believe me the money for my hobby has to be counted. And thats really OK! I m happy about every knife i can buy and without the understanding of my wife there would be much less.
 
Wife helps out all the time. Several knives and videos, my sharpmaker and best of all she bought me my first katana! A late 1700's piece that a real beauty!!!!!!!! Hell she even carries now. Ahhhh let me count the way's I love theeeeeee.
 
My girlfriend got me a decorated small Sebenza for my birthday a few weeks ago.

Chang, don't feel bad buddy. I'm two years older than you and have yet to coax a woman into going out with me. Don't know what's scaring them off. It couldn't be the old army coat, greasy hair, and combat boots could it?

My girlfriend has bought me a number of knives.

And even better than that, she doesn't mind when I trade them off.....

Though, she does get exasperated with how fickle I am....

My wife got me a leatherman one year for Christmas. Now I am trying to get something bigger and better, like a khukuri. I am not having much luck. Chang, I here that the actress Angelina Jolie is a knife Knut. Proof that there are hot chicks into knives. Don't give up. Of course you can do like I did and spring your knife interests on your wife after you married her, it makes for some excitting and interesting conversation I can assure you.
 
Groovy, Angelina Jolie, a knife knut. Well, I'm on my way to L.A. now to ask her out. I'm sure she'll go out with me......right?

Damn, just realised she got married to Billy Bob Thornton a couple o' months ago. So close!

My wife (and mother!) both know that knives are what make me happy, so birthdays and Christmas are always occasions for new cutlery.

And then there's the garter dagger that we had Dale Reif make that was a present for us both...

Disco Stu, I sometimes wear camouflage and Altama boots. Very rarely though. It is from the time I dressed up as a militia man for Halloween. Strangely, I think I get better results with the chicks when I wear that stuff. Still not good results, but at least they'll talk to me!

BTW, it is probably the disco combined with the knives that scares them. Most chicks aren't into S&M, knife and disco fantasies. Then again, my musical selection is AC/DC and Lynyrd Skynyrd... so I guess I'm not that much better for getting chicks around my age!
 
My wife bought me a buck 110 14 yrs ago that was the worst knife i ever had. Must have got a bad one. Until recently I have not allowed her to buy me any. She changed my mind about a year ago with a Dozier Arkansas Tooth Pick. My mother-n-law gave me a sharpmaker for Christmas last year.
 
Hi all -

Disco Stu, who the hell is B B Thornton? Never heard bout him at bladeforums, how many knives does he have? YOU have the sharp thing - show it to Angelina.

My girlfriend got me a Sog Tsunami, that night I asked her to marry me. She thought it was the movie with the love storie that caused my question. Come on I got standards
smile.gif

Were getting married on the 18th of Nov. She likes my knives and guns, everything I've ever wanted in a wife.

Bigbore you need to go watch Sling Blade with Billy Bob, that must be what attracted her.

Chang, truth is, I can't stand disco. My actual musical preference(at the moment) leans toward Hardcore Punk, which isn't excellent for attracting anyone near normal.

And Bigbore, you're right. Who's Billy Bob Thornton anyway? I can take him! I'll just have to get at him while he doesn't have his sling blade around...
 
Mr.Turner,

Yowsa!!!!

My girlfriend buys knives for me. Emersons, Cold Steel, Spyderco, but she also wants the same in return. We went into SFO while we were in Golden, CO and I had to pry her away from the Sebenzas. I did get her a pink Delica though.
I laughed when she gave me a CS Peacekeeper II as part of my Christmas present one year. She had "Love you 4 ever, C.J." engraved on the blade.
I carried it as my Drawpoint knife for a couple of years. Talk about mixed messages if I ever had to draw it. (not that the BG would be reading it at that time
biggrin.gif
)
 
My fiance won't let a sword in the house for my safety she says
eek.gif
, but since my business of knife sharpening and repair pays bills she accepts that and carrys (not accesibly!) the CKRT Bear Claw I gave her. She hasn't returned the favor yet, but I have hope.
 
Guess I let a keeper get away. The only knife my EX-fiancee bought me was a SOG Tach II (that I keep in my toolbox, and never use). She bought it 'cause she saw me looking at one in a knife shop-little knowing that I didn't like it very much.
The best part was how she gave it to me. I was lying on the bed watching tv, and she slid it under my t-shirt up to my neck, and then cut the t-shirt off of me
wink.gif
(gee, I hope that wasn't to risque!).
She also bought me a -sigsauer you'll love this- P-220 .45.
Must have lost my mind...
Did I mention she's pulling down about six figures, now, too? Arrghh!

Chang, stop wearing BDUs and boots. Get some of those baggy pants that let your butt hang out, quit your job, and get a nose ring. I hear that's what young chicks dig these days
biggrin.gif
Now if I can only find one that's 30, single, childless, no jerk ex-husband, and no serious issues.
Oh well, back to the personal ads......
 
I'm in the exact same boat that Chang is in. I talk to a lot of girls and know a lot but never get around to going out with 'em, just talk and talk. I don't wear any army fatigues or anything and most girls don't know that I love knives (I don't want to scare them off
wink.gif
) but they ask me if I have a girlfriend and [act] surprised when I tell them no.
confused.gif
Why is that the cool people that love knives (and are underage) can't get girlfriends
confused.gif
Gotta get ready for school now.....

OwenM,
Single, childless, and no serious issues??? That's the funniest thing I've heard all week.

Balisong Man,
Here's a idea that I didn't manage to figure out until I was lots older than you: when they ask if you have a girlfriend, ask them out!
