Congrats!!!! Knife newbie here fell in love with a GEC at first sight but now search for Camillus and old Case knives. Haven't bought a GEC in a good while and the others have just as good quality (if not better) at a lower price. Every day I learn so much from this fine community, I'm glad to be one of the 20,000 plus members.

Thank you Bryan for a place to meet like minded people, discuss our common passion and display the fruits of this sickness we call collecting. The atmosphere you've created has attracted a great bunch of people and I'm glad I found it.

Not sure what I'd do without AAPK some days. It's so nice to sit down with a beverage and just get lost in the pictures, knowledge, and conversations here.

My deepest thanks to Bryan, all the moderators, and the friendly members for my escape from the daily grind.

This is a great site and Bryan has done a great thing in creating it.

The admins are simply superb.

The membership is the best I've ever been around.

Great people. Supportive. Prayerful. Helpful in every way imaginable.

If I were limited to one internet website, all the others would be eliminated and AAPK would remain. ::tu::

Thank you Bryan for creating and running AAPK! Also thanks to those here who make new folks feel right at home (Philco and JerryD both instantly welcomed me when I joined a number of years ago). It’s the members who make it great, sharing their knives and info about knives as well as sharing bits of their own lives. Happy place to be! OH

I’m rather late to the party!
This place is beyond awesome. I can honestly say I’ve learned a huge amount in the past year, not just about knives, but about kindness and generosity, with a large dollop of good humour. ::tu::
Thank you so much for this place!
