Spyderco Addiction
I just tallied up how much I've spent on Spydies since catching the bug . . . I feel woozy.
Re: Spyderco Addiction

Re: Spyderco Addiction
Whenever I do my annual knife audit and update my spreadsheet I almost check in to rehab.
Then I click BID or BUY and carry on LOL !!!

Re: Spyderco Addiction
It bites hard! I bought my first Spydie in mid March (Manix 2 LW) then a week later a Sage 5, then 2 days ago a Chaparral and a PM2. 4 knives in less than a month was not in my plans! I was hooked after the first.

Re: Spyderco Addiction
It's useful to see what you use and what you don't use. It's my belief that Spyderco knives deserve to be used, so it helps my budget to let those go to a new home if they're only warming the bench.

Re: Spyderco Addiction
It's not hard to stop buying a lot of Spydercos. I have done that loads of times..

Re: Spyderco Addiction
I have more knives than I can use, and no plans to stop buying more. I may sell a few, but only to make room for some new ones. Addiction... hobby... lifestyle... the line blurs. :D

Re: Spyderco Addiction
The flip side of addiction is overcompensating by skipping a sprint or exclusive you really didn't want to. I can tell myself that the DLT PM2's just moved too fast -- but I really have no excuse for the KW Manix 2 cruwear/cf.

Re: Spyderco Addiction
Yes yes you have told me that same statement before Mr Sal Glessner! But you and Eric are the enablers! JK. If literally the only bad habit I have is "worrying" about what is my next knife buy then I'm setting pretty.
