When you have to reach for your own knife to help prepare for the BBQ at the neighbor's place because their kitchen knives are dull.

I've been to peoples' houses where their kitchen knives were literally duller than a butter knife, and I've watched them huff and groan and saw and hack to cut a sandwich. And then the knife goes back in its knife block... as if that were totally normal. It just floors me.

when the first thing you do when you get up in the morning is want to check out any new posts on the forums instead of coffee or read the funnies! Or you get coffee to stay awake as you get up at 4 am to check the forums!
 
I am taking my wife to the great state of TN for our 25th Wedding Anniversary just so I can go to Smoky Mountain Knife Works
 
You know you're a knifenut when you can identify what knife a random person is carrying just by the clip, and you proceed to run up and compliment them on it.
 
when you cringe because your teacher opens a box with a pair of scissors! i wanted to pull out my swiss army knife but we all know how that would go over in school
 
...when you notice that half the hair has been shaved off one of your forearms.

...and whether he's/she's a righty if the left forearm has bald spots. Lefty is the right forearm has bald spots.
 
-When people in your group look for you to cut something.
-When people in your group stop looking for you to cut something because you converted other friends in that group and they already offered their assistance.
-When you do a self-frisk check to make sure that you didn't forget to put your knife back in your pocket.
-When you spend $1,000 and up on sharpening equipment and supplies and you keep telling all your family & friends that you plan to start a sharpening side business but you end up sharpening everyone's knives for free.
-When you wipe off all the smudges and fingerprints from your satin finished knife before showing all your friends.
-When you're at the office in a non-knife friendly environment and you feel the urge to flick open/close your knife in the hallway or restroom when no ones around or looking.
-When you're at the office on the computer and your co-worker walks by and glances at your screen and ask if you are checking your Facebook but you are actually on Bladeforums.
-When you almost have forgotten that you ordered another knife and just realized it's on its way and you just smile.
-When you inform everyone in your family that you're expecting a package from the mailman today.
-When you are all of sudden "buddy buddy" with the mailman because to you, he's like Santa Clause.
-When you keep calling your house to find out from your family if the mailman came yet and if there's a box for you under your name.
-When you abuse company time to go home and check the mail.
-When you drive around your neighborhood to track down the mailman and show him your I.D. with your address on it so he could release the package to you (I've actually done this).
-When you feel depressed that no package came for you when you expected it to.
-When you get mad at your family members because the box that came in the mail wasn't for you but someone else in your family.

Sheesh!!! There's so much. A majority of the post by others as well are so true.
 
You're out hunting and come to realize that your knife your carrying (CRK Lg 21 Sebenza) cost a great deal more than the firearm or piece of archery equipment you're shooting.
 
-When you can't afford accessories for your firearms because you keep buying new knives.
-When you realized that a night out in town could have purchased a new knife.
 
Are you referring to how most spydercos do not have a guard area when closing the knife on the bottom of the blade? And when you close it the blade can come right down on yourmiddle finger while pushing down on the hole with thumb?
 
You know you're a knife nut when your country has an extremely hoplophobic society and you continue to collect and carry knives even though it has led to you being ostracized by your peers.
 
You sell a knife for $50 and feel justified in buying one for $250 because you're not accumulating a bunch of unwanted knives....
You win a knife on EBay and keep going back to that auction page 5-6 times a day just to look at pictures of the knife until it arrives....
You download the pictures onto your iphone so you can look at the pictures until the knife arrives....
