Hello from Indiana!
on: July 05, 2009, 12:46:07 AM
Figured I'd swing in here and say hello to everyone.....heard of this place through KF and EDCF and thought I would check it out. Haven't been much into MT's in a long while although that has recently changed (another addiction I really didn't need.)  ;)

Anyway, just been perusing these here forums for a few weeks and decided it would be a good time to join considering you all have costed me some money already.......I just picked up 3 new MT's last week and got my eye on a few more.......these are the first MT's I have bought in many a year.

A little about myself: I'm currently addicted to Guns, Knives, and Flashlights. Knives being my current money-pit at the moment, particularly slipjoints. I have a soft spot for SAK's and have been on a mini-buying spree with those as of late. I like all types of knives but Traditional Slipjoints are my passion. My knife addiction has curtailed any new Firearm and Flashlight purchases, and my newly acquired jonesing for more Multi-Tools is going to hamper it even further.

I look forward to joining into the discussions here.  :tu:

Swiss Man,

 :tu:

Chako,

Well, those are just my more recent purchases......my whole collection is kinda unwieldy at the moment. Generally when I get addicted to something I usually go to excess. My Slipjoint hobby is a prime example!

And now, I've got the jones for more MT's.  :bnghd:

I tend to go from one to another.......my bank account hates me!  :cry:

Thanks guys!  :tu:

Swiss man,

If the Tim you are refering to is the Tim also known as Felinevet......then I know him well. He was where I went when I first started getting hooked on SAK's, and I still order from him from time to time. MOF, my last purchase through him brought this to my door..........
