Fellow Spydernuts ~



How much money do you set aside each month to satisfy your craving for a new <img src="spyder.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>?

Samo, last year I spent approx. $2000 on my knives. However, not all of them were <img src="spyder.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>!

Bye, gone fishing..........

Let's see ... If we take a look at the last month on the BladeForum's "For Sale" forum, we could estimate $$$ <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> <img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

So far this college semester, I've bought seven knives with an eighth on its way, about a rough total of $430. I could have bought my new bass already... Having to deal with the bass virus and the Spydie bug is an expensive thing!

*hee-hee!* That's really enlightening! <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> I have to spend four times as much, but the addiction is kept to a minimal.. Each time I think of a new <img src="spyder.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>, I take a cold shower! <img src="tongue.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

Samo: That's a lot of showers! (We all know how often you think about <img src="spyder.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>cos) - You must be as wrinkled as a corduroy prune in the desert by now!! <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>! Check's in the mail. P.O says 5 - 10 days.

liko: That's a $eriou$ addiction there! Don't take up scuba-diving or you'll wind up on the street corner panhandling Spydies like me!



Stay safe! Stay sharp! <img src="spyder.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

Java,

Try <img src="spyder.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>'s, SCUBA diving, Sky diving (husband only), 3 dogs, a horse, and husband's child support. <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> + <img src="sad.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

Well, it was really bad there for a while. Most of my knives were bought in the space of two months. Then I bought the Salsa and settled into an EDC rotation (usually some combo of Calypso Jr., Salsa, Endura, and Native), which meant I could save up. Now, I have a Gunting and a G-10 Police PE on the way. Those should be the last <img src="spyder.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> purchases until after this summer.

Linda,

You are truly an amazing <img src="spyder.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>woman! I'd be too broke after the sky-diving to even think about any of the others!! <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>
Hope you're never too busy to -

when I still had a job(Aug00-Nov01) I was spending about 100-150/month on knives... nothing in the last 6 months, picking up 6@$700+import/shipping this fall from Linda.

<img src=http://us.f1.yahoofs.com/users/372fcedb ... 8A88UxWudf> We all start with 10 fingers. Those with Spydies have 9 to spare, Still need a thumb. Good thing I still have 8 to spare... <img src=http://us.f1.yahoofs.com/users/372fcedb ... 8A88UxWudf>
