Hi everyone

Post by Edgewise »

I'm still on the right side of 60 but 'edgewise' is a misnomer.
It really should be 'edgedumb' because, knifewise, I'm still in diapers. ::disgust::
So I'll be hanging out mostly in Q & A.
THANK YOU to the Admin. for
......... providing AAPK
......... the opportunity to lurk a while
......... the opportunity to join ::tu::

My interest in knives is historical, cultural, scientific, artistic, religious ... you name it. From flint to ceramic, from Abraham to AAPK, knives have shadowed mankind through history. To study knives is to study mankind.
My fascination started with the douk-douk and its history, politics, religion, geography, economics, metallurgy, design, sociology, all crammed into a little folder in the palm of the hand. :shock:
From there, my interest took on a life of its own, leading me most recently to AAPK's investigative reporting of the Great Eastern Cutlery experience and Tidioute.
With knives, you never know what's next. ::ds::

Hello Edgewise
You say your still in diapers but at your age they must be in lemon fresh smelling Dependes. :lol:

I am still new to knife collecting too, only about ONE year.
The more time you spend here the more you will learn and NOT make as many bobos.

You sound like a man that uses words well.
