After selling my house and throwing out a ton of crap that I hadn't used in years, I'm not much for collecting stuff that doesn't serve a frequent purpose. I have a handful of quality knives and would love to graduate to collector status someday. Right now my "collection" consists of a few Benchmade folders, Zero Tolerance folders, ESEE fixed, and a Zakuri Blue Super carbon steel kitchen knife. It is amazing how much difference a quality knife makes. Every time I see someone use a crappy dull knife I cringe.
