4. You have to be careful of stacking the boxes too high on top each other so the bottom ones aren't crushed!

not just that your left arm has no hair on it but that people begin to notice and call you out on it so you start to use your leg :)
 
The Federal Reserve is forced to buy up (bail out) your knife debt as a matter of national financial security.

It takes WAY longer to decide which knife to carry than what to wear(even when going somewhere fancy!)

7. There's not a new knife model in any catalog, in any shop, nor on any internet site that has a new model you don't have.

I reject the question...not possible to have too many. :)
 
The majority of your cutlery collection has to be stored off-planet in order to maintain earth's stability in the solar system.

You know you have bought too many knives when.....

you get a call from the local knife store asking if you have any duplicate models in stock you are willing to part with.
 
this one has sort of been said, but
You know you bought too many knives when
It takes you longer to pick out which knife to carry than it takes for your wife/girlfriend to decide what shoes to wear/purse to bring

You have more knives in one room in your house than the local sporting goods and knife shops have in stock.
 
I made a typo earlier, I should have written "...left hand on your right ARM..." Sorry:o

You know you have too many knives when you have a separate knife for nearly every task and insist on finding and using THAT knife for that task rather than the ones nearby/in your pocket!
 
You buy a 3 piece Gerstner chest/rollaway to put them all in and still don't have enough space.
 
You look at a review on Youtube of the Spyderco Centofante 4 and think "That's a cool knife - I reckon I'll order one".

Then a few days later you are digging around in your knife box and realise that you already have it

True story......
