I never quite wrapped my mind around knife/flashlight collecting. I have one of each that I EDC and I did quite a bit research to find the ones I like the best (Benchmade Bugout and Wurkkos TS22 - both in green). Carrying anything else would mean leaving home the one I like the most which doesn’t make any sense.
I don’t judge. It’s just one of those things I have no theory of mind for.
I can’t really wrap my head around collecting anything, be it knives, Pokémon cards, video games, or classic cars.
Maybe the closest thing I have to a collection is seeds, but I plant those to grow stuff. Is that a collection? Maybe! I guess you’re not disqualified for using the things in your collection.
Lol. Oh for sure. Knife and straight razor sharpening has been my hobby for the past 30 years. My daily driver EDC is currently a red Microtech Ultratech knife and an Olight ArkPro in zombie green.
Guess.

To each their own. I mean, some people collect spoons of all things.
Spoons. Not knives. Madness. (Next you’re telling me it’ll be forks.)

Obligatory:

Have you by chance joined the pocket knife community?
I’m adding a parallel comment addressing your edit.
Is this the part where I finally get to say, “Do you know who I am?” I’ve been waiting years for that one.
Ah, now I see. It all makes sense now.
Usually I don’t look at usernames and thought I found your soulmate.
This line is uttered about three times a day in my household.
What is that fancy shelf system? 😮
The backplane is the rather popular 3D printable Honeycomb Wall system. The angled divider trays are my own design which is compatible with the same.
Oh wow, you’re not kidding about it being popular. That page of add ons went on forever!
Very cool, and your design looks great as well.
I only have my faithful Ontario Rat, but we’re practically inseparable!
Another popular storage solution is Gridfinity
Oh I went down the rabbit hole all day yesterday on this stuff!
Multiboard was pretty cool too.
If I had a 3d printer it’d be running non-stop right now 😄
You collect knife boxes, and you have them filled with knives just so they’re not empty.
I studied the blade
So many shelves!
No, those are all necessary.
I got like 15 different sharpening stones. We should hang out sometime.
I suspect that would result in a lot of sharpened knives.

Gabe is that you?
