Heavily Fortified

Kaedo has a fascination with knives. One I will lay at Craig's feet, but that both of us have allowed. The picture here shows a sample of the knives he has collected, but does not include throwing knives and a Katana sword he picked up earlier this year.

To say he loves them, would be an understatement. While he does buy new throwing knives off eBay, the majority are vintage or antique that he has bought in flea markets and antique shops. He had initially started storing them in a letterpress tray, but the size and quantity have outgrown this. (maybe I should confiscate the tray???)

Sterling and Kaedo have set up a system in the back yard for throwing the knives, and G is very unhappy he doesn't get the backyard for his own play place. I'm not sure how you would explain a knife to the gut of your dog the your friendly neighborhood vet.

For now, we are letting him enjoy the fun, and this cool hobby.

Yikes!

Yikes! He is so proud of his collection. Hope he outgrows it,lol! He is definitely a flea market junkie (pardon the pun). You have lots of different interests Kaedo, good for you.

Love to all

Double YIKES!! Maybe it's a good thing that I didn't keep that big honkin knife that Craig was asking for awhile back:( You do have quite a collection there Kaeden!

Hope everyone is having a great day - it is beautiful here this morning, started out at 0 and is already 8 - so that's a good sign. Blue sky and sun is always a BIG PLUS!!

BIG HUGS TO EVERYONE!
