Nice collection!

As for the fiance, follow these steps:

1, let her know that they are an investment and will pay for the childrens college. That should buy you some time.
2, Sell ALL the NASCAR stuff and buy more knives.
3, buy more knives.
4, come back here and post more pics.

great looking collection you have there. i especially like those old green bone knives. i know what you mean about the fiance, except in my case its my wife and let me tell you, it dont get any better....lol.

anyway, the next time you are bored, feel free to post some closer pics of those greenbones for us to admire.

Dave, I thought that Mastodon Ivory 88 looked familiar, with serial #88. I sold that on eBay a while back. Saved it for last out of the four that I had. Looks good in your awesome collection. You just have to be a little more discrete when ever you make a new knife purchase so your fiance doesn't find out. Fortunately for me, I work midnights and am always home when the mailman comes with anything new.

I am shocked that you are not thinking that this is grate...

Buy a house in a safe neighborhood for your girls (or call the knives your lost children) would be a super thing to do. That way if you get bored again just sleep over night or on week ends at the new house. Just think of it as a church museum for lost children that you are working on. Deed it under a church name that way she and her lawyers cant end up with it.... Put some money down to start this before you get married is very important thing to do....

Just one way to look at your problem.... I hope this helps.

Hack thats way we are here at AAPK to help.
