Just saw the site the other night and it really caught my eye. Have only been addicted to knives since Dec. 2006, I've learned how to do without in order to buy knives and I haven't seen a knife yet I didn't like! Wife is getting increasingly upset losing closet space to plastic storage bins for putting away my beauties.

Well Jim you have come to the right sit.

We can help you with your addiction here.

I find its best to buy 2 knives each day even if you have to sell your wifes car.
That would stop her for complaining about losing closet space...

...

I feel you will fit in here just fine.

Run away now Jim, run as fast as you can once you delete this site from your memory..

Just joking of course but your wife is not going to be happy that you found this site...

Welcome to AAPK, glad you are here and can't wait to see some of those knives you have been storing in the closet here on the AAPK web site...

Welcome to AAPK!

As an appropriate gesture of good will for a new member, and since your closet is filling up, you may send the knives to me for proper care and feeding!

Hi everbody. Well I just couldn't help myself. Worked all night and went over to a friends house to look at some knives. Wound up spending the next paycheck on more knives. The wife ain't gonna be happy. I bought an incredibly mint Case Classic Mother Of Pearl Elephant Toe. A Case Classic Stag Saddlehorn with some of the prettiest stag I've seen. Has the Springfield tang stamp. A gold lip pearl Muskrat! A Case Paua large copperlock with the Clam shield. And some kind of Schatt & Morgan Trapper with stag handles that are probably over an inch thick! It is an incredible looking knife. He had a Case USA 5254 with the Muskrat blade but he wouldn't sell. It was dead mint. I'll have to get some time and take some photos of some of my knives. I also like the Canal Street Cutlery knives. Got one of the mint sets 1/25 Sandbar Stag (I still don't know what that is but it looks like stag to me). And the 1/25 mint sets all pearl handled ring opener knives. Has the black lip, gold lip, pink lip and mother of pearl knives. They are beautiful. Momma ain't gonna be happy.

Welcome aboard Forensic!

Pictures, I say, pictures!

I think the picture sharing that goes on here lets us all save a little money by living vicariously through everybody else.

Seeing somebody else around here get a new knife is almost as good as getting a new knife yourself, but much cheaper.

It may be belated but welcome to the site. I got a kick out of your buying some real nice sounding knives with your paycheck and you stating momma won't be happy. Sounds like you belong here, and sounds like you have one heck of a nice big paycheck. *laughing*
