Requesting 111mm Collector Level 1
on: July 02, 2025, 12:41:17 PM
Dear mods and fellow knights,

As a man burdened by both responsibility and the inability to stop browsing this forum, I submit myself for the 111mm Level 1 Collector Badge.

The five that made the cut (and occasionally, literally do):

1. Soldier – Issued to those brave enough to serve, and now... to me, who bravely opens Amazon boxes.

2. Forester – it's black, it's beautiful and it's a noble blade for the concrete jungle.

3. Hunter XT – Orange. Loud. Unapologetic. Like a Bengal Tiger, who also has a gutting blade. I take it hunting.. in my mind. Otherwise it sits in a drawer!

4. Workchamp – This one has tools for every situation. Except perhaps the one where someone asks, “Why do you need so many knives?”

5. Skipper – The newest crew member. It has a marlinspike, which is great for... well, I’ll figure that out once I buy a boat. Or a rope. Or friends who sail.

As Epictetus might’ve said (had he owned a Swiss Army Knife):
"Don’t explain your knife collection to fools. They’ll ask why you need it. The wise already know."

Requesting the badge not out of pride, but out of quiet acknowledgment that I’ve crossed the threshold from “I’ll just get one” to “give me a collector badge!”

Badge me up!!

    I noticed you were back on the site, but didn't want to make a spectacle of your return.  The arrangement of 111s into a Victorinox chakra is commendable.  Best wishes.  Gary
