You Know You're a Knife Knut When...

Have you seen the unneccessarily huge serrations on Dean's demon killing knife?

That knife drives me insane every time I see it and I have to ask myself what were they thinking every time I see it. I guess that's why it kills demons though, it's such a bad knife that even demons can't stand it.
 
when you spend several hundred dollars on a knife, and as soon as you get it your already thinking about buying another one.
 
When you carry a good knife to "back-up" the knife you are carrying to "cut" stuff with.
Your wife asks "you going to fix that with mustard?" :)

HAHAHAHA! How about you know you are a knife nut because you actually know why someone would but mustard on a knife blade!

I think to myself,"You know, that knife would look way better with a plain edge."

I was watching The Heat with my wife a few weeks ago. There's a part where the bad guy unrolls a bag of knive and all you can see are the handles. I hit pause and told my wife what every knife was just by the handle except one I couldn't figure out. My wife tells me I should probably see a specialist. I hit play and the guy grabs the knife I didn't recognize. It was a dollar tree special oyster knife. I didn't feel so bad after that
 
That you put a knife in your pocket, even though you know you won't need it.

You look for things to cut just so you can use your new knife.
 
when you use your newly sharpened knife to shave off the fuzz balls (some call it pilling) off your sweatshirt while reading the "You Know You're a Knife Knut when...." thread.

But this is where the knife "specialists" gather and your one of them. So congrats on listening to your wife.
 
"When you go into a depression when you lose a bronze washer trying to de-assist your ZT."

When you read this quote and think about the 566 you just deassisted and wonder how one can lose a washer because deassisting just requires removing the front scale, then reconsider and wonder if the knife didn't have a detent hole thus requiring removal of the pivot assembly and blade...=P
 
I shop online a lot. I like to get clothes, games, sometimes new tech equipment...

But none of that stuff compares to the level of anticipation when you order a knife and know it'll show up in a few days. That sort of excitement is in a category all its own.

Oh my, is that the truth!
 
Your good kitchen knives are "your precious." They are not for your non-knife-people friends and family to touch. To them you lend your "guest knives": beaters made out of sub-par steel, inferior geometry and not sharpened with all your passion. Yet, your guests are terrified of using them because they think they are crazy sharp.
 
You keep a spreadsheet of all your knives organized by brand, listing the price you paid, the angle they're sharpened at, size, steel and any other pertinate info.
 
When you hear, "you're carrying two?"

When you try to identify pocket clips on random strangers

When you have a shopping list for Blade show that's months away (well I guess just going to Blade Show is being a knut.)

When your friends always turn to you when something needs cutting

Applause*
