Hey CRK fans!! I was looking at my calendar this morning.. and it hit me.. I have been a member of BladeForums for a little over a year now!! Wow.. how time fly's. Just one year ago I had never heard of Chris Reeve.. or his fine knives.. amazing really it you think about it.. or not.. but since I had not posted a long boring post here on the Chris Reeve Forum in quite a while.. to long really I thought I would just drop in and say hello to all my fellow CRK addicts.. and maybe do a little reminiscing.. So, yea I became a member of BladeForums on June 8th 2013 my very poor math skills tell me that it was one year, twenty two days, and about four hours ago..
give or take.. In that short time I have made 1,289 posts (not counting this one) some long.. some short.. some interesting.. some not.. and all long and boring.
I also realized that this month.. a little over a year ago I acquired my first Chris Reeve Knife.. you guessed it and Umnumzaan.. I purchased the Zaan off the bay on June 22nd 2013 and that started my love affair with Chris Reeve Knives.. and believe me it has been sweet.. from the first Zaan to the last P Sebenza and every one in-between I have enjoyed them all!! So as with most things my interests in knives have changed... don't get me wrong I still love CRK and always will but I have become more interested in other so called custom knives.. strange really.. or maybe not.. one of our good friends here on the CRK forum told me that many CRK collector's move into the custom arena.. I don't know, but it seems logical.. but for me it has been more of a journey of discovery.. anyway I thought I would share some of my voyage over the past year.. most have been seen here before.. but not all. I hope you enjoy the journey with me.
And as always, all the best!!
