I struggle to understand the ones who take beautiful pictures of their multitude of knives, over and over again - same knives with different backgrounds, that show none of them have been used enough to require a sharpening, although I do understand, from personal experience, that, when you have that many knives, it's hard to use them all.
That's closely followed by the ones who buy a new knife, start a thread with lots of pics and a review proclaiming it to be the best knife ever, can't see it leaving their pocket for the foreseeable future - only to see it up for sale in a week or two. And I know that impulse buys on a limited budget are the main reason.
The frenzy that accompanies a new release of some of the GEC traditionals is almost like schools girls gushing over the latest teenage hunk. It's embarrassing - or should be. :barf:
Finally, I really get a kick out of the ones who post pictures or videos of themselves carrying a large fixed blade or two smaller ones, tip up for "rapid deployment, edge out".
:yawn: If they ever had to actually use a knife in self defense, those pics would not support a desirable outcome at trial - unless they intended to plead insanity.
I don't mean to offend anyone in the community, but we're all, myself included, a bit unbalanced, when it comes to knives. There - I said it.
