    You might have too many Spydercos if.....

    - The first 10 results on your "Spyderco" search on Ebay are knives you already own.

    - You no longer have arachnophobia, and they used to make you scream like a little girl.

    - The ER doctor is on a first name basis with you and has stitches reserved with your name on them.

    Last but not least.....

    - You're a manly man, but you were giddy as a school girl when your pink Delica arrived because you couldn't wait to carry it in front of your friends.

    Hilarious, Zatx! Here's one:

    "...when it takes you more time to choose which Spydie to use, than it does to make the cut itself."

    Check. Although in my case it's either I own them, or have owned them in the past.

    I was playing with a massive wolf spider in my nephews sand box last night, does that count?

    Nope, don't have this one yet, because I haven't had a cut bad enough to go to the ER. Does it count if I buy more knives from NGK just to get the band-aids?

    Couldn't afford one, but I'd carry it if I had one.

    Along the same lines...

    .... when you decide what to wear based on which knife you want to carry that day!

    That leads me to a good question Zatx...what do you wear when you carry that pink Delica?

    Camo?

    When the deciding factor while shopping for clothes is the number of pockets large enough to carry at least one Spydie...

    I don't believe in safe queens, only in pre-need replacements.

    IMHO, one can never be too rich, too smart, or own too many Spydies.

    What Deacon said....Except, the too smart part. There are some people who are too smart for their own good.

    you have knives in your pockets, on your belt, in your shoes, around your neck, clipped to your sleeves, and now you have to shave your back so the duct tape doesn't rip it off.
