You're a true knife nut when.....

When your wife/girlfriend says she's into S&M and you get REALLY excited! Those Schatt and Morgan Series 12 with the horn handles and pearl inlays are hot! :D :eek:
 
---When you can't watch a movie that has a knife in it wothout either saying outloud what the knife is or trying to figure it out later by replaying the part with the knife in it.

---when you email a co worker a link to somehting you read on Bladeforum and you can hear them groan when they read the link name.

<groan> I did this last night. I was watching The Imposter (good movie btw) and saw a stainless Spyderco folder. It looked to be a Police model, but I'm not sure.

retrieve the knife out of the box take with you to the
bathroom and examine it while on the shitter.:D

That is scarily true!!! I'm glad I get home in the afternoon before my wife does. She'd be pounding on the door on knife delivery days.
 
While looking for something else, you find a knife you forgot you owned and it brings a smile to your face just like the first time you saw it. :)
 
When you have stashed knives around your car and then months later when looking for something totally unrelated you find one of them and think "OHHH...that where I hid this "

When you have a drawer filled with EDC's that is the last thing you choose in morning after getting dressed.
 
-Your favorite folder is clipped to your shorts when you go to bed.
-You're here reading these posts intead of working. :D
-Before Sept. 11: carried a Battle Mistress in your bag at all times. After Sept. 11: carried more knives.
 
You're a true knife nut when.....

You are posting entries to an internet Knife Forum under the thread "You're a true knife nut when....."

:D

Doesn't everyone open and inspect their new knife shipments on the can?

;)
 
You giggle like a little school girl whenever you know your knife will arrive soon ;)

Not me. Considering the consequences of dropping a sharp knife in that situation, I settle for reading Blade or TK ;).
 
On Halloween you're dressed as a "knife-wielding maniac" but you aren't wearing a costume.

You learn how to cook because it's one more reason to use a knife.

You walk around the office asking people if they have anything to cut.

You stay up late to make fun of the "miracle blade" infomercials.

Your pants are always in danger of falling down from the weight of the knives you are carrying.

While getting fitted for a tux all you can think about is how many knives you can fit into it.

The cutco salesmen have your house marked with a big "X" on their route maps.

You stake out your mailbox daily waiting for the mailman to show up with your new knife/knives.

The sound of the mailman's engine is more recognizable than ice cream truck music.

When you sit at work all day trying to come up with more "You're a true knife nut when..." sayings.
 
When you're 20 years old and already have a folder picked out for your first child that (hopefully) won't come into the picture for at least until you become an NCO.
 
Don't worry. My can has a porcelain guard to protect my weener.

Did I actually say "weener" again in public? That's the second time this month.....
 
Geez, you guys/gals think we're ready for the Letterman show on "Top Ten Hints That Suggest You're a Knife Nut"?

Here's mine:

You feel the need to carry a Camillus Cuda Max in case you might have to open a bag of potato chips.

You order another knife and then wonder where you're going to store it since you just realized that your storage cases (more than one) are already overflowing with knives.

You wonder why people in a movie can't think like you and use the appropriate awareness, assessment, tool (e.g., a knife), and technique to overcome negative situations. (You get all these great ideas by lurking in the BladeForums).
 
You buy a knife ( CRKT Mirage ) when you were not even in market for one but it was $19.95...get to car and have to open package in parking lot but have a hard time deciding which one of the 3 knives on you ( Spyderco Jester, Delica or CS Hombre ) you should open it with and then decide it would be easier with the SAK scissors.

I always am leary of opening a knife package where the blade is in open position.

Ahhhhh...everything does. ;)

You have the calender marked months in advance for a Knife Show, and don't find out until you get home it was your Wedding Anniversary. (Been there, done that, the bruises still haven't healed).

Your child cuts themselves with one of your knives and you check the knife first.

Your copy of Playboy goes unread, but the pages of your Blade magazine are stuck together.

:D
 
You take your new knife to bed with you for a few days, so that you can cuddle up with it like you did a teddy bear as a child. :D

You occassionally do the same thing with old favorites.
