    Hello and Welcome Dick,

    We're the same age and I too have been hooked on knives since I was 4 or 5 years old. I bought my first knife when I was 5 or 6. Bazooka Bubble gum had an offer on the comic to buy a folder for 10 cents sent my dime in and weeks later it was in my pocket.

    You just joined an awesome forum. The members here are very
    knowledgeable and eager to share their experience. Take some time to
    review the various topics and when you have a chance please post a
    photo or photos of your favorite knife.
    Your new friend on the iKC Forum,
    John
