Hi. I'm a long time lurker from Finland.
Since i found my way to this forum, i found out, that this is very exeptional place. Members are very friendly, and dedicated people.
I have been using knives since i was kid. My first knife was my fathers leuku Marttiini. It's big knife for a kid, but i loved it. Always loved any kind of knives.
Now i have been collectin quite a range different kind of knives, mostly cheap and useful. These days more swiss,  leatherman and some gerbers. Mostly looking for bargains. I started collecting little over 10 years ago.
I have made some of nordic style knives and sheats.  I can get ready blades quite easily.
I have been looking for your modding section alot. Wery beautiful and talented work. So i'm very interested of making my own mod some day.
Now i have to start learning how to use this forum, because i am totally first timer on forums.

greetings and welcome to MTo,  Glad to have you aboard and it would be great to see your collection especially the knives you have made.  Just continue to browse around and use the search feature and eventually you will find what you are after.  You can also simply ask and someone will come around to help.

Looked like a great day to ride.  I had a 89 Honda CBR600 while going to school, man was that a fun bike.  I'm considering getting a bike but I'm torn between cruisers or old BMW cafe racer.

It was a great day to ride. There was quite many days to ride. Only thing is that i have twins, who are now 1year 4months old. So i dont have to think  what would i do with my freetime.
I do love this bike. Model is Magna VF 750 C on this. I had Honda VF 750 F interceptor 1984 before this. Basically same engine in streetbody. Great bike also but didn't like driving position on that.

Aloha, bikes are great hobby. Do you do distance or cruise around town? I'd start my looking from that.

Agonistes Valkyrie is great beautiful bike. Could i ask to see it?

I would use it mainly for putting around running errands.  I would however like to get a larger bike for long trips.  I am a ways off from getting anything but I keep my eyes open in case a great deal happens upon me.
