I've realized today that I can never claim a day as "new knife day" because I get a new knife every day...I know, I know, it's a sickness and I need help...

I know of some with huge collections that are well north of $100K. Most of my encounters are with customs so it is pretty easy to drop excessive amounts when those knives are $500-$10K. When they passed the heirs task was to liquidate the accumulation, some easy others not. Have seen some sell at $0.30/dollar and that hurts, most hit about $0.65% to 1:1 which is good. A few may go 2X but those cost $ at the onset. (Loveless, Moran and the like.)

I'm in downsize mode and the realization money was spent on stuff that served no practical use was sobering. Is this item useful? Will I use this item? If not I don't buy. To me the joy was in using the knives, if it wasn't going to be used it was sold. Some I may miss though largely it was more relieving to get the space back and declutter.

YOLO so enjoy! And yet finding a balance too, life decisions. ;)
