Morning all,
I stumbled across this site after trying to research some of the pocket knives I have accumulated over the last few years. It has not yet become an all consuming obsession, but I'm afraid I am well down that road! It all started with the Boy Scout knife that my Mom and Dad bought me, and that I carried religiously until I lost it many years ago. I learned a couple of lessons early on. One was that a good knife was something that I didn't want to be without, no matter what the situation. The other was that if you try to peel a golf ball in the back seat of a moving car, you are going to take a detour to the local emergency room to get your hand stitched back together! Not the last time I had to see those good folks...
I look forward to learning about the good stuff here. I'm glad I found a bunch of like minded folks who appreciate the value of a good piece of cutlery.
John

Welcome to AAPK. Glad to have you aboard.
It sounds like you might need introducing to our "Cut Myself" thread.

Welcome tac803
! About the middle of the winter, you'll need to remind our buddy Scott (TripleF), why he's in Florida. I don't think he has become a full fledged redneck yet because of the alligators, mosquitos, and humidity

Yeah. I think Scott has forgotten what it's like to have snow up to your cheeks for three months straight.

Welcome to AAPK.
Do you recall what model of Boy Scout knife it was that you started out with ?
