Hey, Beckerheads!
BH #11 checking in! I've been away for longer than I can recall, which is odd considering how important this forum was/is to me. I've moved around in my career quite a bit this past year, as well as having gone through a number of pretty big personal changes. Knives just were becoming too big of a distraction, or so I thought.
If anyone here has ever taken a test for depression or anxiety, you are familiar with the question that essentially asks if you have lost interest or no longer gain pleasure from things you used to enjoy doing. I think about that question sometimes, and I always come back to knives, and more specifically, Becker knives. I'm working hard to try and balance my life and still make time for the things that I love.
Because this is a Becker Knife & Tool forum, and not a place for little old Sqoon to piss and moan and feel sorry for himself, I'll close simply with a fond hello to all of those who I have missed (a lot of you), as well as say hello to all of the new names and faces. I'm so pleased to see how much this forum has grown.
I also do have a question: What the heck is new? My last BK&T was the BK10, which I had been dying for for a long time. My Camilus BK10 in tan has been something of a grail knife for me, and I was so happy to be able to pickup the superior KA-BAR that I can use and abuse.
Hopefully I can stick around. I hope you all had a good holiday!
