What else do you collect?

Guns and exploring on my thumper for me. I tend to use the motorcycle more than I do the guns. I do get to crack a lot of groundhogs this time of year. I think the local vultures love me, haha.


I don’t think I’m much of a collector, I just have a lot of fun stuff.
 
I don’t really collect anything. I’ll occasionally pick up a souvenir from a travel destination if it’s something I’ll use, but I don’t have any real collections.
 
When I first started golfing I would collect used golf balls that had unique inscriptions or logos. Most of them were Pro-V1’s from different golf courses. Scotch tasting is another hobby — well, drinking more than “tasting”. Nowadays, with my newfound love for knives (only been collecting for 3 years), I cannot afford another hobby....unless....
 
Not really anything else. I don't have the $ to spend on another hobby. I do like Marvel Masterpiece/comic book cards. Most of mine are from the 90s. I love the artwork and easier to deal with then comic books.

Magnetic compasses, vintage wristwatches and pocket watches, rifles, pistols, Irish Waterford crystal, early America pressed glass, wooden bowls and boxes, copper coins, and other things
 
Oh let's see,
Coins, especially Vickies (Queen Victoria "Jubilee" silver and gold coins with the small diamond crown) and Lizzies (Queen Elizabeth II gold and silver coins where she is wearing the George IV State Diadem) and a few modern commemorative gold coins.
Guns, especially 1911s and falling block rifles.
 
15 sewing machines. 8 Bicycles more lawn and garden equipment than I need for 1/2 acre. I have 2 walking tractors plus a rider and self propelled mower etc. Bibles
 
Zippo lighter collection. Presently 150+. Don’t remember how this started, but it sure hasn’t ended!
 
I've really cut back on knife collecting, only buying a couple a year, mostly from folks on the forum. My other hobbies are photography and rock collecting/polishing. For photography I'm straight Canon, never sell anything so I have four DSLR bodies from 40D to 5D IV, lots of lenses, too.

Rock collecting is great, we're outdoors doing something fun. I, also, purchase rocks and tumble them to a full polish. Never sell any, I give away to young people that show an interest. I finish 8-12 lbs a month, adds up fast!

I have a few mini-collections - carved birds, Tim Cotterill frogs, Utah guide books, ghost town books etc.
 
I wouldn't say I "collect" them; but I keep dollar coins when I get them. Probably have about two thousand of them - between Presidential, Sacagawea, and Susan B's
- if I were to guess; plus the random non-US dollar coins I've received in change.
I may have some silver dollars (Eagle, Peace, Morgan) floating around somewhere, as well.

If I'm going to collect/accumulate something, money seems like a sensible option, lol.
 
I collect..... EVERYTHING. I'm a horder. :D

A few guns, not as many as knives. Still have all the dirt bikes I've bought for the kids even though they're all full size (adults? Well, at least physically :) ) now. From my oldest daughter's first Honda 50 when she was five. To the last 100 I got her in her late teens. The other kids never got new because there was always something their size already.
 
Another thread on carry bags made me think I certainly accumulate carry bags (and cases) for many purposes. I probably have too many. Use them when I need them; get tired of them; buy another and another.
 
I've been collecting coins since the late 80's, mostly US silver, plus foreign bullion and art bullion rounds. I discovered playing card art decks in 2014 and have about 300 different decks now. I've also been accumulating Maratac gear to the point of owning most of the items they produce.

My rate of acquisition has slowed, but I'm constantly browsing and making lists of things I want.

My wife barely notices my non-knife purchases, but always gripes when a new blade makes an appearance.
 
I have a rather extensive midget pornography collection.

Also collect. Human toes and teeth. Animal skulls, feathers, claws, ect. I have a drawer full of empty chewing tobacco tins, i can't even remember why.

Also collect cat fur, have about 4 lbs of it on every article of clothing I have at all times.

I've been collecting international horror movie stickers lately.

Oh! I definitely collect headphones/ earbuds. Have at least 300+ around, forgot about that.

My life is grand atm.:D Need new hobbies, and new life in general. My environment is looking way to much like a Texas chainsaw massacre set, and me like leatherface himself.
