You know you're a knife knut when...

When you send a knife back to a manufacturer stating the grind isn’t perfect and the centering is off...

And they send it back with the note... “looks ok to us!”
 
When you get your fondling knife and gently feeling the edge of it does not get old to you.
And the only time you dont enjoy doing that is when you notice that the edge feels DULL.

 
When everyone at work knows you're a knife guy, and during a Saturday morning meeting, one of them needs to cut a thin metal wire holding an old banner above the showroom, so they all jokingly point to you, and you have to sit them all down and explain to them why you can't let them use your XM to try and cut a metal wire, and the whole meeting basically turns into a passive aggressive power point presentation of steel composition and what materials are appropriate for a knife to cut. And then everyone hates you.

This is great.. & all too true. Whenever we get a part in at work that comes in a cardboard box everyone always saves the boxes for me thinking that it's some kind of fetish to break the boxes down but I'm not falling for that.. I'd have to take it out to the dumpster too. So I generally pass on that.

When you see these words on packaging and your first thought is....

"I don't think so."

I must be a knife nut. I want to set through the presentation sounds interesting.
 
You walk out the door to get some milk around the corner, with 3 knives but forget your wallet.
 
You know you're a knife knut when you just have to buy ALL the knife sizes, because that mini definitely won't cut the same as the regular size:D

There was a similar thread to this a couple years back with some really excellent responses. One that I recall that was particularly amusing went something like, "...when you use your knife primarily to open boxes containing other knives."

I honestly think that's become the knife knut motto, and I am completely fine with that haha

I don't even see such things anymore, I'm sure they're there but I just cut everything open because I've torn things to far before spilling them.
