YOU think you are a full blown KNIFE KNUT? PROOVE IT!

The only place I don't take a knife is the shower.

And I literally sleep with one (usually my Wegner, sometimes my Military) clipped to my shorts, with the other one and my Recon Scout within inches of my hand. ("Aw, c'mon! Really?") Really. If you lived where I'm living right now, you would too! My wife is afraid that they may open during the night. Thank God for a great detent!

I fast often to save money for buying more knives. (Besides, if need be, you can procure food with a knife, but how could you ever procure a knife with food?)

My family thinks I'm nuts. They're right. I'm knife-knuts.

I've been collecting knives since I was 5 years old and havn't stopped yet. I used to go to rummage sales and junk auctions to find old tackle boxes or beer steiners with jack knives in them and buy a box of crap just for the knife . Mostly what I have has no real collector value as they are severely worn I havn't gotten rid of any thing I have shoe boxes and tupper ware containers full to overflowing with my treasures at my home as well as in my parents attic approx 1500-2000 pieces would be a conservative guess.I also have a small collection of swords .bolos and machetes. approx 20,000 dollars worth of knife making equipt and God only knows how much in supplies. I make knives seven days a week and enjoy it as much now as I did eight years ago when I started, and I talk Knives to any one who will stand still long enough to here knife gospel acording to Ken. I carry 4-5 knives daily and 4more in my truck. I have a subscription to every knife mag I know of and read every one. I could go on but I'm starting to scare myself.
Geez !!! when you take the time to look at it like this ..... I HAVE NO LIFE!!!!!


Pathetic Huh?

I need a twelve step program or something.
Am I A Knife a holic enough to be in your club ?

 
Ah, you poor pathetic wretches. *I* am not a knife knut. Every one of my 20+ knives is desperately needed for one thing or another.
I'm sure glad I'm not controlled by an urge to buy every good knife I see. I restrict myself to only the ones I really like. So you can see, I don't have a problem with knives. And I can stop any time I want.

sorry but ken onion doesnt qualify as a true nifnut...mostly he just sits around talking to all the groupies who come over to pay him homage or look at the pictures of him and the movie and rock stars, and we all know that kershaw makes all of his knives now, except for the ones he farms out to waialua.

I only have a bunch of folders that sit around my computer, room, or in my pants. I only have bought about 10 knives in the past five months and only have 3 production knives on preorder. I have not actually ordered a custom, only look at what various makers have come up with and think about what I would get once I figure out what kind of fixed blade would suit me. I have so far only given out 3 knives as presents this year. I can stop anytime I want to. I simply choose not to.

in 98 I was just starting and bought 1 knife and 2 swords. In 99 I bought another 2 swords and 44 knives. thus far in 2000 I've bought 18 knives and a four hone diamond Lansky. And all this on E-4 pay with almost 3 yrs. in the Navy.

Oh yeah I almost forgot. I take my entire sharpening kit to work evryday on the off chance someone might need their knife sharpened (I sharpen about 7-10 knives a day). I also carry every knife rag I own with me when I go. I walk around the house in my boxers, my Blackout and a CRKT Neck PECK. I sleep with an auto stiletto on my nightstand, my Kabar tucked btw the matresses, my Cold Steel Bushman on a 6' shaft right nest to my head. To leave the house I carry a Buck Prince, My Kershaw Blackout, my Neck PECK, my Swiss Champ and my Leatherman Wave strapped to my belt. To go down stairs and check the mail I carry my Kabar tucked in the small of my back and still have my Blackout and the PECK on me. How do you like them apples? --Hey just because I'm paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get me.
 
I am here so there for I am.

Kind of like the old saying a fellow who used to drink me under the table used to say... "I ain't no alcoholic, I'm a drunk. Alcoholics go to meetings..."

I guess I am a knife knut, here I am at the meeting.

I am beyond hope! I have four albums on photopoint that I use to show off my work over the net.
Three are on knives.
Only one on models!
The last naked girl in the studio, I couldn't keep from wondering how she would look in Dexter's vest! I rest my case!

I am not a knife nut. Simply because I just commit accidental mayhem on myself, that doesn't mean anything. (legal definition for mayhem is when you remove someone's body part that isn't normally removeable. in my case, the tip of my thumb.) After all, I've never even had stitches! (tip came off clean, doc said no use trying to reattach it.) How can someone who's never had stitches be a knife nut.(Although I do have a cabinet full of butterfly bandages.) I mean I don't even own a custom yet, I can't be a knife nut, right? I spend less than half my disposable income on knives. I'm not obsessed. I still have hair on the inside of my right forearm.

So there!
