Greetings from Finland

#1

Post by Viking_Protocol »

Greetings from the cold north. Long time browser and knife-nut decided now it's time to join this awesome community.

Former tank commander, now deep in the business world.
Knives, guns and watches are what takes majority of my spare time and money, and occasionally I draw stuff. Kind of accidentaly got into Spydercos way back in my teens ~15 years ago, and on that road still. Lots of knives have passed through my collection, but never sold any Spyderco ones, and most likely never will.

Glad to be part of this family!

Welcome!

You had me at "tank commander", ha-ha. I've had a life long fascination with tanks & armor.

Welcome to the forum. It will take a couple of days for your probation to end and then your posts will show up. Be patient and guard your wallet.
