I remember after my first 5, I said to myself, 'I am not going over a dozen! Why would I? That doesn't make any sense!'
Once I hit 13, I thought, 'There is no way I will get to 20! That would be insane!' I even reasured my friends, stating as much.
Today, 22 :spyder: folders. I don't even want to count the others. It is almost embarasing to answer the 'how many do you have' question to a non-knife person.
This must be the oldest thread getting revived since I joined this forum (which was not too long ago admittedly)
/ I have 11 at the moment. My "rule" was actually to never have more than ten at a time, but well... :rolleyes:
Top three going by pocket-time (update April 25):
- EDC: Endela SE (K390). Endura thin red line ffg combo edge (VG10), Chaparral SE (CTS XHP)
- Mountains/outdoors: Pac.Salt 2 SE (LC200N), Salt 2 SE (LC200N), Endela SE (K390)
I have some on the chopping block at the moment, which will leave me with 9 I think, but I am planning on buying an M390 Delica or two this Friday. There are also a handful of production models I am planning on buying next time eBay runs a 15% or 20% off coupon. And I am planning on grabbing a Sage LW when those drop. And pretty much every Para 3 LW that comes out. And I'm sure there will be plenty more unannounced knives that will make an appearance in my collection at some point. The question is how many of those get a permanent place? I don't really have an upper limit, but I am getting very picky about what I like. I am into lightweights almost exclusively these days.
CRU-CARTA THE SEKI MODELS! AND BRING US THE DODO-FLY!
