Any Knife Collectors?

I'm a benchmade guy...have two that I really like.  

My all time favorite knife is my kershaw leek though.  It's cheap enough to use and abuse but feels like a knife that costs 2-3x more--and I love the shape of the blade.  You can use the blunt end as a flat-head screwdriver, the tip is dagger point, and the blade can be leather stropped like a straight-edge.  
It's just about the perfect EDC.  I couldn't begin to guess how many packages or kid's birthday presents I opened with that...or how many electrical wires I stripped, loose strings I cut, etc.  

I go through a "knife nut" phase every few years where I buy a few nice knives.  Don't really even know why; cheaper than buying nice watches like Big Achoo I guess

21 foot rule.

My mother told me not to run with scissors and these guys are running with swords and knifes.

Truth be told most people in real life stress and a moving target will miss at 5 yards with a hand gun. When I go to a range I can't believe the amount of misses at 15 yards with a stationary paper target I see by hand gun fans. With stress most do not look at their sights but at the threat to their life. A person with a knife at 21 feet does have an advantage many times against a man with a holstered gun. A young athletic man can close the gap before a guy can get off shot on target.

Just pistol whip the guy then.  He'll slice you, but you'll knock him out...then you can shoot him at your leisure. 

Problem solved

I'm quite the connoisseur of Katanas and various ninja weaponry. I can also answer any questions about the size and shape of the genitals of monkeys. I spoke in great lengths about this on my last gimmick account.

PS OneMoreRep can suck it!
