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

When friends buy knives and you can quote them better prices than what they paid and where.
When you have more knives than your wife has shoes.
When your wife knows what EDC means.
When men walk with a limp you wonder whether it's from the weight of all those knives rather than a disability.
 
A few times I have jumped up on the spur of moment for a quick trip to the grocery store or somewhere. Rushed out the door and somewhere en route realized I did not have a knife on me. I actually have a moment of panic when that happens. Very real panic.
(I have since assigned an old Benchmade to permanent car console duty)
That is the thing I fear most in life.
 
When you have renforced your pockets due to the constant strain of the wave.
When you stop bitting your left thumb nail, just so you can open a SAK
When you put usps.com on your shortcuts so you can see when a new one arrives
When you find yourself flicking a knife open and closed, and don't even remember taking it out of your pocket
 
When you can't get a package in the mail without someone asking if it's another knife.
 
When your friends and family make fun of you when you DON'T have a knife on you.

Well, THAT hasn't happened to me in at least thirty years :D

When you decide that if Heaven is a knife-free zone, you are going to Hell instead...

If you buy only Faded Glory carpenter pants from Wal Mart because they have an extra pocket on the left leg that is perfect for another knife...

If you have more knives on your keyring than most people have in their pockets...

If you live in Kansas just to minimize the chance of drowning if you fall in the water...

If other knife knuts ask why you would carry that many knives...

When your mother asks you to carve the Christmas turkey because she knows you will sharpen her knives first...

:D :D :D
 
when you designate a $60 folder for abuse duty while its bigger, more expensive brother who could do much more is designated to display and making friends jealous duty
 
Wont study in the library, because you cant flip the balisong there.

More knifes on me on campus then textbooks.
 
You know your a knife knut when you can identify what knife someone is carying just by seeing its pocket clip! :eek:

So many of these are hitting home! I asked a bouncer at a club a few weeks ago if that was a CRKT M16 he had in his pocket, and he said no. I changed my phrasing and told him that he did in fact have a CRKT in his pocket, at which point he agreed and took it out so we could discuss it (it was the Iraqi Freedom Desert Big Dog model). Cops love it when you tell them what kind of knife they have in their pocket, and what kind of handgun including how many rounds it holds, and their spare mags.
 
When you're on a first name basis with the UPS delivery person.
When you've added the UPS delivery person to your X-mas card list.
When you buy pants, only cargo pants or multi-pocketed pants will do.
During the winter months, the skin near the nail of your thumb has dried, cracked, split open and stings with pain, but not so bad that you can't keep flipping your knife open with the thumbstud.
You have a more intimate relationship with your Sharpmaker than you do your spouse.
 
You know your a knife nut when even in the shower or even when makin' sweet love to that woman of yours, you still have a knife on our bod somewhere.:D

For me it's the Spyderco Mini Police necklace that's always with me.
 
Okay, that last one was just creepy.

...when you constantly tap the side of your pockets when in a crowd to make sure no steals any of your knives.

...when you're just waiting for someone to get a package so you can cut it open for them.
 
When you go to pick out a knife to carry and you feel guilty about leaving the others behind.
 
.......when you constantly tap the side of your pockets when in a crowd to make sure no steals any of your knives.....QUOTE]

That's just paranoid, be careful what you say, THEY are listening.:eek: :rolleyes:

Show of hands, who sleeps with a knife, (not wife).

My ARC P hangs 'round my neck too, hope ya don't consider that creepy do ya?
 
Ok how about when ALL your jeans have this .....

notice how the area that the knife is clipped to is not as faded as the rest of the jeans!!

How about when you know the make model, blade length, steel, scales, and type of lock this knife has? And around how much they go for. These are also fairly new jeans! Look at them weird wear marks???

I love threads like this!
 
I actually got a needle and thread and reinforced the edges of my pockets as soon as that started to happen.
 
How about if your left thumb looks like this? Its not sharp untill it grabs your thumb so hards it bites into your thumb. I have been testing my sharpening skills on my thumb for years and never do this. But I was riding in the truck with my buddy and knifesterbating in shot gun, he hit a bump...=....SLICE.=..blood..=.healing.=.picture..=.post here.= knife knut!

I forgot, also if you look in the backround of the last picture you can see.....

If you cut up ALL cardboard this small to take up less space in your trashcan. I do this all the time!
