New member here --- been reading the forum as a guest for some time, figured i should finally register and contribute. I live in Texas and have been collecting knives, firearms and various survival, tactical and military gear since I was a kid as a compliment to my love of the outdoors.
I trend toward rugged production knives as I like to use what I "collect" so you'll see more posts from my about how many trees I've felled with a Gerber BMF than you will about how many customs I have sitting in a display case.
I've also started blogging some gear reviews in recent weeks....you can check my blog out here:
