You know you have spent to much time on BF when...

.....You get discounts at the surplus shop cause you go there so damn often.

.....you used to only carry one knife, now you go to work preparing for TSHTF.

.....you eagerly start a small fire using a napkin and a flint at work for the guys who smoke.

.....you drink as many cans of beer as possible imagining what you'll turn it into when you're done.

.....you sharpen your knife while on the $hitter.

.....you hide in the restroom so your girl won't see you playing with your knives again.

Those are some good ones!:thumbup:
 
...when the "new" knife arrives and the Postmaster begs you to do a show-and-tell. And you do, going through the littany of the knife's history, in spite of the impatient people behind you in line.

...when two of the people in line behind you ask you to do a pass-around, or get them one just like it.

...when you get home with said "new" knife and the wife catches you fondling it, magnifying it, scanning it.

...when she says "Don't you already have one like that?", and you pull out six more and proceed to explain to her why this one is different, unique, somewhat rare...

I hear you on that. I usually reply with this,"My knives are like your many pairs of shoes you buy. Each one has a certain purpose and time for use." After that she lets it go. :D

I have a lot of practice (it is in the Man Manual). First you talk technical and get the "deer-in-the-headlights" look. Then you talk philosophical and the eyes glaze over. Before you even get into comparing the new knife to her 1. shoes 2. knicknacks 3. video collection, she has wandered off to find something more interesting to do than hassle you over yet another knife. :D
 
Wabajack, I got that beat. I made a to-scale paper cutout of a Benchmade 210... then I glued it to a piece of plywood the thickness of the scales, and cut it out, sanded the blade down to approximate thickness, drilled a hole in it, then tied a lanyard to it. :rolleyes:

I did, eventually, actually buy the knife. :D
