Yes this is a blog on knives. I've been a collector for a while and it is a hobby that I greatly enjoy. The name of this blog was derived from a song by City and Colour. I found it fitting.
I am however not completely one dimensional. Expect posts from a wider array of topics. Stationary, Technology, film are some of my other hobbies. Actually you will see quite a bit of stationary here.
Hope there is something for you here
I have spent more money on pens this past month than I should have…woops. but on the upside I have more cool pens so all is well in the universe
This is my new Cypris Morpho Wallet. Picked it up in NYC today. This wallets are beautifully crafted in Japan. The fit and finish is outstanding. Unlike a lot of wallets this one not only fives the impression of durability, it also maintains a very svelte weight. This is a great example of Japanese craftsmanship. Great materials, style and build quality withou being overbuilt. It is a different philosophy of manufacturing. Also kick ass packaging.
This is my second kaweco liliput ( Fine nib). I had my last one for over a year, however I sadly misplaced it. Even after waiting a few months I missed this particular pen enough to order a replacement. These are not inexpensive, but the quality of the nib, coupled with its diminutive size make it an excellent pocket pen. A fountain pen convenient enough to carry in my day to day life. I’ll gladly take the tradeoff of being limited to cartridges for this level of portability.
The notebook is a Clairfontaine 1951. This brand is renowned for its paper quality. Great thickness and treatment allow for clean writing with no bleed through or feathering. The cover is made with a thicker stock cardboard giving the overall package a very classic and simple feel. A great addition to my daily carry.
Bot of these products were ordered from jetpens.

Thought catalog has really gone down the toilet

So we just upgraded to macbook airs in our department. I’m loving this machine so far. It’s incredibly light, fast and quiet. Other than playing games it will handle just about anything that I will throw at it.
The only thing that’s bugging me is Netflix. Can’t uninstall and re install Silverlight to get rid of a bug. But this is an office machine.
EDC Pocket dump. This is what I have on my person on the average day at the office. I always try to trim down what I have and this is as small as I can get it. Every single one of those things gets used on a day to day basis
