Hey, I don't know if any of you guys remember me, but I'm still alive and I'm back! I had some issues with my epilepsy and sold a lot of my knives, the good ones at least, and planned on using the money to travel before I cashed out for good. Well, I didn't travel but I had a good time with the money I got.

My health has been stable for almost a year now but I did have some rough patches. Woke up throwing up blood a couple of times with my tongue gnawed down to a nub. Couldn't talk or move my hands and was severely mentally disabled, more than usual at least haha, for a while. Got my license back, then had a seizure while driving and totaled my car that I had dropped full coverage on 10 days prior, what luck eh? All sorts of issues with my meds, one made me see flashing, rainbow colored triangles flying at my face at hyperspeed and I didn't know WHAT I was let alone who I was and didn't know if there were other people on Earth.

The VA took me in and did all the testing for brain surgery because that's my last option, so I hope the meds I'm on now keep working! Hell of a thing for a 30-something year old to deal with but I'm lucky to still be alive let alone walking and talking!

Anyway, just wanted to pop back in and say hi. I decided I have to do what I love and get back into collecting and talking about knives! Looks like I missed the Force Multiplier and Forsaken Steel Heart, damn! Those things are sweet! Just emailed the shop though to see if it's too late for the NFNO, fingers crossed!
