Wow, purty!! Is it sharp?

[atallvlad.livejournal.com]

Nice! :) where did you find it?

Bolivia.

Not particularly, it's more decorative. But I like it regardless, I didn't have any like it.

weird. I have a knife collection as well. I've never known anyone else to have one, though it is a secret sort of closet nerd hobby.

[lapsedmodernist.livejournal.com]

Well, I am open and proud about mine.

How many/what kind do you have?

[apathyfabulous.livejournal.com]

well I was much more into it as a teenager and pre teen... they are all in my mothers home in cincinnati, but I should probably bring them to my house.

- half a dozen throwing stars.
- Half a dozen throwing knives of various sizes and weights.
- 3 survival knives I got when I was into camping and outdoorsman stuff. The last one I got was a buckmaster, which is the be all end all of survival knifery.
- civil war era bayonet.
- indigenous Bahaman knife
- super bad ass Mexican machete from central Mexico
- 5 inch boot knife with black carbide blade
- forged European style sword
- 3-4 misc. flip open knives, not switch blade.
- Couple swiss army/leatherman style things.

and this might not count, but a "practice" samurai sword made of wood. It's very cool. Oh and brass knuckles.

Ooh. That is incredibly shiny.

[lapsedmodernist.livejournal.com]

Indeed! :)

I think it's really hot that you have a knife collection. :)

[lapsedmodernist.livejournal.com]

Thanks! That actually seems to be a fairly common reaction and yet the same people are really creeped out by the fact that I like guns.

[boobirdsfly.livejournal.com]

That's actually hot too. And yes, a bit creepy.
Guns are kind of fascinating. I could see why you'd like them.
