New Member

Hello everyone. I am a new member here on IKC, but I'm not new to knives. I am more of a user than a collector. I will buy a knife if I think it will fill a purpose for me. Those purposes fall into 2 categories, work related or outdoor related. I work with monofilaments in a textile mill. The size of the mono's vary from .11mm to .70mm. It takes a good steel to maintain its edge when cutting them. So, I am prejudice against and in favor of several steels. I am a hunter and fisherman. I have hunted deer, squirrel, turkey and coons most all my 41 years. Last year I got into squirrel and coon hunting with dogs. I now have 2 Mullins Fiest. I mostly fish for catfish in the Pearl River here in Mississippi. I hope to get to know many of you and make some friends.

Welcome Stephen! From your introduction with your occupation and outside interests, belive it or not, you ARE a collector! LOL Knives for work, hunting, and fishing. You probably have more than one for work. You most likely have both a fillet knife and bait cutting knife. That's about 4 or so. Then you need a Trapper for skinning your coons. A nice fixed blade for deer hunting. And a good bird knife for turkey!!.That should be at least 7. YEP, you're a collector! Kinda snuck up on you didn't it? Don't feel bad. You're in good company here. Heck, before long, we'll turn you into a certified, dyed in the wool, incuable KNIFEAHOLIC!!
