"You may be a knife nut if..."

[Michael Andrews]

The beater carry shows a higher level of consciousness. Once people know you're a knife guy they're gonna ask to borrow a knife. And they aren't gonna be nice to it.

When your a real Knut it‘s disappointing when you have to pass on buying a really great knife............................because you already have a pristine example of the exact same knife in your collection.

...and then you end up buying it anyway.

You aren't buying a knife, you're making an investment.

If you have bald patches on your arms or they're hair free!!!

If you've moved on to your legs I search of edge test spots!!

AND if you smiled thru this whole thread, shaking your head...

I ran out of hair on my left arm and moved to my left leg. My wife shook her head.

 

[Fir Na Tine]

you find sharpening and/or polishing an edge relaxing and therapeutic

You have something like this in your edc

Sharpening is quite zen. like meditation. I can feel my blood pressure go down after about 10 min of it.

I’m going to use that! Thanks!

 

[Fir Na Tine]

Ever had a brand spanking amazing factory edge and instead of using it you decided to sharpen it because you know you can do better?

You know if you are a knife nut when you design new knives in your head to fall asleep.

 

[afishhunter]

might be a knife nut if ...

... you own more knives than you can or could possibly wear out in two or three lifetimes, let alone one.

... You have more knives than the family shoe crazed females have shoes ... combined ...

... you notice cutlery in a photo or movie before you notice a micro bikini clad beatuty.

... you wonder where that micro bikini clad beauty carries her car, and house keys, and her knife.

If you remember when you purchased every knife you own and what type of steel the blades are.......
But can't remember your wedding anniversary

You spend your time on a knife forum, telling other knife enthusiasts why you might be a knife nut.

When you're planning a week long trip and you spend more time deciding which knife to take than you do planning the rest of the trip.

Guilty! Recent spring turkey hunting trip required a inordinate amount of deliberation on my part. Took me longer to figure out what knife than what gun, choke and turkey load to bring.

 

[Fir Na Tine]

If you flick your knife open and closed while driving.

More than guilty.
Even admiring fixed blades.

You maintain a PO box so you don't have to hear "what did you get in the mail? I hope its not another knife!!"

...when you ask your three-year-old what he thinks is in the new package, and he confidently replies, "Knife!"

Happened this afternoon, in his mother's hearing I might add.
