Hi from Germany

Hi, my name is Frank and I have been a lurker for some days in this fine forum. As it seems I have caught the knife bug (again) and this time it´s pocket knives!
I just started collecting and I suspect that there isn´t still not much of a leitmotif in my little collection. Up to now I am fascinated with french pocket knives (not neccessarily Lagioule),
traditional german pocket knives and most of all the classic american pocket knife!
Unfortunately it´s always the hard to get by stuff that atracts me and although a lot of the fine pocket knives that are shown here come originally from Solingen, Germany
they quite difficult to find here. So sooner or later it seems that I will be buying stateside.
Until that there´s still alot to learn...
Greetings from Germany
Frank

I hope that's spelled right, I'm following Wazu's example 
My wife has been to Germany, back in '98 with a friend of ours who hails from Frankfort.

Thank you guys! Jerry is right, everone is very friendly here and we seem to have even some german speaking guys here.
Nevermind, I am lucky that german is my mother tongue, I guess it´s a mess of a language to learn.
Addiction already shows and I suppose I will get some more bank account wrecking ideas here!
Cheers
Frank
