About Me

I've always had a handful of random knives, but it wasn't until a friend asked if I wanted to buy a knife from him that he no longer wanted. It was a Benchmade, and I was blown away by the quality and aesthetics of "modern" knives. It was in 2020, and its been a major part of my life these past few years. My business is in California, but my kids moved to Texas after a divorce, so I spend one week a month in Texas, which has really helped me build my collection.

Interests

Knives and knife collecting primarily. I also spend time and money trying to be prepared as much as possible for any eventuality.
