Collectible Knives?

This morning on my way home from the bank, I saw a sign for a Yard Sale with "Collectible Knives". My curiosity more than piqued I stopped by. It was a ruse. They did not have one knife on display (or anywhere else cause I asked) that had been used to stab anybody famous.

    George -

    Thanks for your hospitality today - sorry it was such a short visit! Jillian loved her lollipop :)

    As for the knives - I've got some collectable ones - they weren't used to kill anyone, but I cut my finger on one of them once. Bidding starts at 500!

    I have killed 2 Sasquatch's (1 was small) with a knife.
    Does that count as "famous"?

    I have a hand forged knife. My brother made it for me. Folded somewhere between 200 and 250 times. It's pretty hard. It's gorgeous. I put it away in a box. I don't want to mess it up. I'm going to have to get him to make me another one.

    Used part of a Dogwood tree that died from blight for the handle. I got the Dogwood from an old co-worker/friend. I got it for my mom originally and it sprouted a bunch of shoots off of the roots. So I cut one and grew it from a sapling. But bugs got to it and the blight killed. So I save a few branches that were about 4 inches in diameter thinking I'd make something nice out of them one day. Who knew it'd be a knife handle.

    I am going to replace the bumper sticker on my car with a bumper sticker that says, "WWGGD".
