New Rule For My Knife Collection

The wife and I where discussing my knife collection. She thinks I'm going a little overboard so we came up with a new rules.

If I buy a knife and I already have one of the same pattern I need to sell one.

The way to get around this is. I got her to agree that I could have more than one if I'm using one for a edc.

Another way to get around this is she does not tell me what to price them for. So I can just price them high enough that if a person does buy them I can get a real nice one to replace it with.

Also there are the knives that I buy just to resell. They don't count !

Now I know that I want to upgrade some knives in my collection and as I buy new ones I need to get rid of a few old ones.I also love to get new patterns.

I think I have this all figured out but for some reason I have a feeling that something is not going to work out. She has got to have a trick up her sleeve. She just agreed to easy and I have never been able to get one over on her yet.

Comment by Alexander Noot on July 14, 2013 at 14:56: Interesting. I've just come to the rule that I have to REALLY want something to buy it. Not just "sort of interesting and I'd like to hold/play around with it sometime".

I've found that when I only go for stuff that I really want very badly I really do limit my purchases and am building up a collection in which I really love each and every piece.
