I am a long time collector and have moved into retirement.  Buying and selling knives is moving from hobby to my preoccupation. I bought a 400 piece collection a few years ago and had good success selling it on eBay this past year. That was the beginning of Sharpnshinyknives. Now I sell knives from my personal collection. A few come from buying knives right on eBay or from other AAPK members who sell to you low enough to resell and make a little money on them. But most are pieces from my collection. As my collection grows, I sell an equal number of knives to balance out the collection. It’s not my intention to grow a collection for ever. Once I either stop buying knives or look over the collection and can’t find anything that I want to turn lose of, I will keep selling knives.
