About Me: My name's Andrew, I'm 18 years old, and live in the Central Valley.
===
I've been collecting knives for approximately the last 7 years. On the other hand I've had my magic hobby for the last 10 years.
===
I received my very first pocket knife (of which I can remember) when I was in 1st grade (6 years old). It was black with an image of a Grizzly Bear on the front and the size is easily comparable to that of a Victorinox Classic. To this day, I still have this knife working and in good condition.
===
I still buy/collect knives. I have an estimated 60-70 knives in my collection, of those about one-third are of superior quality. I buy and use them whether they're considered crappy or not. As long as the knife is suitable for my needs, then it's a keeper.
Interests: Knife Collecting (and using!), Photography, Magic
