    That was a fun test Piet, some of those questions were hard

    Hahaha...I scored a miserable 22%

    Too bad all of my knife knowledge is Spyderco related.

    Someone should make a Spyderco Knife Test. I'm sure that I would do a bit better!

    88%, I took the same test a few days ago, and did better, but I think I changed my answers on some of the ones I was guessing on.

    The only reason I even did that well, is because of this forum

    I scored a 89, with a 76 in my age and gender. I could take it again and probably get a lower score since I guessed on probably about four or five questions.
    First they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not stand up, because I was not a Trade Unionist.

    Hmm, i got a 65% with 50% higher than my age bracket. Not as good as i would have hoped, but i dont know much about custom makers and specific cities which screwed me over. Fun test though, thanks for sharing.
