i have way too many, honestly don't know how many. i'm tired of black knives, g10, aluminium handles. i love titanium, usable art knives, and carbon fiber. my favorite knives are the art knives that i can use with gusto with no loss of artistic quality. i love rare knives, discontinued knives, build outs and sprint runs but have no interest in customs. i have justified buying many of my knives because they will increase in value, but never intended on selling them. i would love to have a BUSSE but can't get my brain to justify the cost. i don't like to carry anything under 3.5" but some of my smaller knives are just too cool to not carry. i don't understand the allure of TOPS knives. 1095 has been around longer than any of us and amazing things can be done with it for very reasonable prices. every now and them i will buy a silly knife just for fun. i don't like or understand HEST or EMERSON hype. i love QUEEN CUTLERY, OPINEL, MAM, and the variety of COLD STEEL products. i love having a wide variety of knife steels even though i don't need them to cut stuff. i love fully serrated edges, especially on large blades. i hate cheap, shabby, unsafe knives. i have gifted many knives to friends because what they have is a hazard. i never insult anyone's knife, just offer to trade or gift one so the end user can try something different. i offer knife sharpening services for life to anyone i give a knife to. wow, this is my longest post ever. way too many i's, i feel like OBAMA.
