PCB 105 - Thanks for your post. That is a fantastic idea about keeping a journal of things that you own, when you bought them, how much you paid etc. It may seem to some that this is overkill or time-consuming, but as you get older and have older family members pass away, you totally understand.

I am a bit extreme, but I carry at least three at all times. One is my main PP/SD (personal protection / self defence) just in case. I never use it for anything else. It is usually one of my more expensive\favorite plain blade knives (ex Manix 2). I carry another plain blade that is more "publi...

Hey GI Joe First off, you're never TOO old. I'll be a year older tomorrow, so I do know what you mean though. You should think about it for a while before doing anything that you might regret later. My Grandpa just passed away at 96. I have a few things that were his, and you don't know how much the...
