Being addicted sucks :-P
on: September 17, 2009, 07:41:51 PM
I thought when I picked up my Benchmade 940 that it would be the last knife I would get for a long time. Now I stand correct, now I have a Buck Cadet 303 and a Schrade Barlow 206. Man this disease doesn't quit!  :ahhh

Just wait, you ain't addicted yet. When you own 400 to 500 blades and are still buying them......that's when you'll know something ain't right!  :D

Yes, it's very possible. When addicted.....quite easy too!  :D

There are times I forget........there has been a few instances where I come across a good deal on Ebay only to not remember if I already have that knife, and then have to run upstairs to my gun room and rumage through my collections to see if I do!  :think:

Now that is bad.

Lucky for me, I remember each and every one of mine. Mind you, my collection is nowhere near 500 pieces. I think if it were, I would still use this web site as a cataloging tool.

I wish I wasn't so cheap all the time. I probably wouldn't be buying knives though. But skis on the other hand... >:D
