How many knives have you ordered so far in 2025 ?

Bought a sold a bunch of knives as I fell back into the hobby/community. But this one is an acquisition that I plan on keeping.
 
Spyderco RockJumper -- VG-10 blade steel, Wharncliffe profile, flat grind. A fairly decent knife for daily carry. If it were a flipper, it would be perfect. The edge holding of the VG-10 isn't last as long as some of the stronger steels (like CPM S110V), but it can be fairly sharp and is relatively easy to sharpen.

I'v really never talk about it, but in previous life I was a corporate chef, so my tools were my knives..
..also managing staff/clients/contracts..

Never owned a Kizer knife and by the overall design I knew this would be good.
The Bulldog arrived yesterday and I was surprisingly impressed by the overall design and how in sits in hand at various positions.
(often hold my knives rather forward)

anyway, I ordered another the same day.
Haven't done that on a product in nearly 10 years.

So, one knife,,ordered twice😎

lastly:: said to myself, if I was to design a knife it would be nearly identical to this,
never thought that before.

Hmmmm , maybe another 6 ...
I should probably make a spreadsheet ?
So if it was 7 last time , we are up to maybe 13 for 2025 ... I should quickly buy one more to make it 14 .

Ordered 2 more for 15 ...

Forged Hunter.jpg

Forged Hunter , yeah , got it for $9.99 + $9.99 for postage = $20 Oz Banana Republic Credits !
I saw that handle & just had to put in a $10 banana bid .
So the last of the February Stock ! Yeah , I've lost track .. I believe that is the evidence of the fact that I am a knife A holic ..
My only saving grace is , years from now ! I will still have them . Unlike the booze some one swilled , or the cigarettes' some one smoked , or the Drugs some one ingested . So not quite like burning dollar bills . more like transferring value ! Transferring value of this Forged Hunter knife to food would = Two trips to Mack Donald's . ( Depending on what you ordered , it could be one and a half trips these days )
