Hey guys, I'm Shane. Just want to say thanks for all info added, and for all help given. This site has helped me so much in my short time here. ... Here is a little about me. Im from central/eastern Ky. I'm 34. I work in construction. Metal framing, drywall, acoustical ceilings, flooring, etc. Just about anything... I know a little about a lot, but a lot about very little. Lol. I really enjoy trading, always have. Knives, guns, sports cards, motorcycles, four wheeler, just about everything throughout my life. But mainly knives now. Case is where my heart is on this. Pre 80s. I like the value factor, but also I like the hunt, the trade, the rare find and having a part of history. To think about what a tested, or Bradford knife has seen and been through in it's time. Who owned it? Where has it been? Those types of things. I really enjoy it. I do feel passionate about the nice collection I work to one day have. As lots of you all. Some of the nicest knives I've ever seen has been on here, and I appreciate each picture and description i see and read. ...so guys, is it best to go ahead and pay for a subscription? If so, which would you recommend? Thanks for your time, and for reading. If any fellow Kentuckians are here, holler at me. Thanks ::tu:: God bless guys, and stay safe

Welcome, Shane! As you've seen...a great group of people are here. No one will pass judgement on what level (or even if you have no membership). I hung around several months, before I saw the memberships...but; the history of AAPK made me want to contribute, even though I sell no knives.
We look forward to seeing some pictures of your knives! ::welcome::

Hi Shane. Some nice stuff!
May I suggest starting a new thread over here? ---> https://allaboutpocketknives.com/knife_ ... m.php?f=49
It may stir up more interest that here in the Member Intro threads.

Again, just a suggestion.
