Re: just learning about folding knives
Welcome from Kentucky! It’s good to have ya with us. There’s a great bunch of guys here who’ll be more than happy to share what they know with you. And we’ve all made more knife mistakes than we’d like to admit!

We all make mistakes, but if you're wanting to learn, this is the place. Hope you stick around.

Mistake number one... Buying a second knife.
Mistake number two... Thinking the second knife would be all you need.

Re: just learning about folding knives
Old747 Welcome to AAPK! You have come to the right place. I'm not saying you won't ever make any more mistakes buying and selling but at least you'll have a place to commiserate with like minded folks. There are quite a number of knowledgeable folks around here that are more than happy to share their knowledge. That way you can at least bounce an idea off the wall before you get knee-deep. We love pictures here so don't be bashful. show us what you come up with.old747 wrote:Hey all.

Re: just learning about folding knives
Thanks again everyone for the warm welcome. I do hope to add something to the lineup. I have a few knives and I sell a few knives, but I am no where near collector status.

You can be anything you want to be. Collector. Accumulator. Hoarder. Or all three.

Accumulator... I like it!
From now on I am "Ken the Accumulator".
Now I need to accumulate a mask, and a cape.
