It’s Just So Cute!!!

naw man….bk5!

a cool hard 13.5 inches of overcompensation.

Nice, Konrad! I've got a Ka-Bar USMC 7" (14"overall) but its at the family's cabin. Talk about overcompensation (for a civilian).

Homegrown. Homebrew.

Careful Konrad, that 2% can creep up on you.

This is my wife's contribution.

No overcompensation necessary.

Oh the nostalgia … how I long for the days when I could (and did) have one in my pocket at school … and played the "who can throw it and get it stuck in the ground closest to his foot" game.

A thread about knives, vintage books, and booze may be the greatest thing in the history of the internet.

My eclectic little addition

The book is an original published during the war by Overseas Editions, Inc. Don't know if you can read it at the bottom of the book, but it says: This edition of an American book is made available in various countries only until normal free publishing, interrupted by Axis aggression, can be reestablished.

The knife came from the Karl Marx University cafeteria. The Irish Whiskey seemed to fit the theme (and is quite tasty, to boot!)

Best Vonnegut book ever. I've read everything he's done.

Protech Tantilla: 2 edges 2 oz. ;)

He seems like an author I'd enjoy as I dig Kerouac, Bukowski, Selby, Palahniuk, Hunter Thompson, etc.

The book in my photo is a 1937 printing of the Complete Works of William Shakespeare that I picked up at the Theater in DC. I should note that I'm not a metrosexual but play one on TV.

Viso!!! Hippy Crack. Love the stuff

PDX baby!!!

2nd in line.

for anything.

both of the knives I own. Wish I had the CRKT Dogfish instead of the smidgen

At least I like the knife.

My Dad's Flag, a great read, Kershaw RJ I folder and 14 Hands Hot to Trot on top of my antique Model 15 Singer sewing machine.

Spyderco Para 2, a leather-bound Kindle and a liter of water sitting out in the sun.

I'm sorry, but I had so much fun reading this thread I couldn't let it pass without adding to it!

An excellent vintage, the proper receptical to drink it out of, and a book near and dear to my heart. Oh yeah, and my trusty Gerber LST ( this is about knives, right..?)

That Jerry Schad has seen some miles!

You poor uneducated fools and your handles

Thanks for the laughs gentlemen, this thread made my day! Some really nice knives….and cutlery, lol, good reads, and some very nice vintages as well!

I just realized with this thread that I have no class whatsoever…

The whole thread made me laugh. Great fun!

Nick, I always suspected, now I know you're a Randian!
