Got any to share?

Roger (yerout) referring to a non- buffed full bladed knife as an "Honest Ole Knife". I love that description. Mr.Blister(tongue in cheek) asking an ebayer if the broken blade on knife pictured was a screwdriver. Lead me to refer to POSs as "Mint Julips"

I really like that one Charlie...Wife was wondering what I was doing reading the Bible while on the forum. I told her Easter makes me think of knives and God...great combo!

Glad you like that one. I have it at the top of the home page on my website.

Notice I said it was "paraphrased". Ezekiel actually wrote "sword", not "knife".

I took some huge editorial lattitude.
