My wife and sisters collect textiles with all types of thread count.

I'm speechless...

Just a bit of lite reading

But I will admit to collecting lots of things I like. A few old cameras, lots of different types of musical instruments (but only ones that I can get at a good price) and a number of flutes, whistles, koauau, putarino and other end blown flutes that I have made. Just as well my wife also likes to collect things as well.

Oh yes, I have 5 Morris minors too

I guess I collect scarves. But I don't wear them all that much, I usually just stick to one when I do, and I don't display and admire them; they just sit there piled up in the dark of the closet, waiting for the next n00b. They probably won't have to wait long now: the annual buy-a-scarf-dammit urge is on me. I've been trying my best to resist, but.....ohhhhhhhhh.....the scarves........they keep looking at me.

I love this site.

Yeah, it don't all apply to me, but it's spot-on.

Geewhiz, now we know who is using up all the blackwood and cocus.

Not really a collection, but I have more razors than I need. 2 Swedish army razors (great for travel) 2 Gillette double edge razors (40s to 50s vintage). Some day I need to try the razor sampler pack. I think I have two straight razors that I haven't used in years.

And of course there is a razor forum.

I wonder if they make fun of those give-away flashlights like we make fun of tourist whistles.

[Whistlin' Will]

I wonder if they have Inexpensive vs. Expensive wars like we do with whistles.

Lumens, battery life, battery type, switch design...

Do you really want to go
to another rabbit hole?

Edit: Okay, I tried to read some of the threads. One was alphabet soup to me, another was bizarre, another...

Some facts I don't need to know.

I prefer Clarington Forge over Spear & Jackson. Younger company, much more innovative.
