You Know You're a Knife Knut When . . .
- Thread starter David Rock
- Start date
-When you plan to go to the Blade Show and have to get up at 3:30AM to be there at 10:00AM Sunday morning, and have no money whatsoever for knives. I'm not even sure I have money for gas, but I'll be there!!! (I'm going to have to empty out my piggy bank, and pay for gas with pocket change.
)
-And your making your Father ride with you so you won't fall asleep on the six hour ride back home sunday night.

You know that yer a knifeknut when...
Compasses point at you.....
Metal Detectors read "TILT" when used on you...
Your significant other puts on your pants to go jogging instead os strapping on ankle & wrist weights...
you carry a backup-backup knife....
You have a knife in each pocket, one around yer neck, a couple in the waistband, and an extra in your shoe, and still snicker at the weenines who buy wrist sheaths from united....
Your guns have clips on them.....
You have to supress your gag reflex when your buddy shows you his new 420j(unk) and asks you what you think of it....
you have exeptionally clean fingernails since you bought a knife for that purpose....
you are trying to convince you soon to be bride that her something blue should be the BF native....
your friends are getting pissed because you keep shaving the edges of their cheap knives off with your higher qualiy knife....
you know the names of all the heads of the knife companies.....and have e-mailed them....

-When you post after midnight and have a day job.
-When you buy kitchen knives of ATS-34, D-2 and 440V. Now looking for scissors from the same.
(Sorry I resurrected this thread, I was looking for MT vector info in "search".)

You know you're a knife nut when;
- Your christmas and birthday lists have two sections; folders and fixed blades.
- Every scar has a story.
- You read the knife nuts thread on bladeforums and think your freinds are talking about you behind your back.
- You get a summer job to buy more knives.
- Two thirds of this thread applies to you.
- You have a knife for every day of the week and every outfit.
- You seriously consider buying suspenders because your pants drag on your waist because of all the knives on your belt.

Actually, I have scars that I do not remember getting, of course my hands are almost always banged up, either from working inside electronics, or working on my truck or, or our favorite knives. My hands seem to be atracted to sharp pointy things like moths to a flame.
You know your a knife knut when college instrutors utter sentences like "Any one have a kni-" looks a Knut "I know you have a knife, may I borrow it?" True story, it's happened a couple of times.

Your a knife nut when you go to Atlanta and spend all day form open to close at the Blade Show and spend all night training with Frank Ortega (the founder of American Kali), and do the same thing each day thereafter.

You know you are a knife nut after you read through all this, AND cut and pasted every single comment! And saved it.
BTW, I have all this saved and numbered now. Hehehe... Email me if you are interested getting it. (That would be the EASY way of getting it!) LOL

For me, you know you're a knife nut when:
you despise Pakistan and Tiwan because the quality of the knives that come from these places. You see a mean looking guy walking down the street you instantly reach for your pockets thinking "just in case". Your brother has to explain your obsession to his friends before they meet you. Your sharp knives smell like bandaids.

You tell your wife & friends that you can stop your 7 month old son's crying by opening your Military/bali-song/etc
Although your wife doesn't know it, but those are not your son's knives that you said they were... not yet atleast, I know I'll die some day.

. . . if you use your trusty CS PeaceKeeper for self defense, and worry more about the damage his collar bone did to the blade, than what the blade did to his collar bone. (This actually happened to me - E-mail me if you want me to post the whole uproarious story).
