My name is Tim Watt. I'm just starting my m9 collection. (only have 2 right now). My first m9 is a Buck 188/ that I bought in the early 90's while in the Navy. I never carried it, just admired it. I caught the bug even back then. Most of my collection of knives is based on the modern military. Bayonets and regular carry fixed blades. I am also an amatuer bladesmith. The form and function of the m9 facinates me for some unknown reason.
Most of the reason I joined this site is for information. I really don't have much to contribute yet.
