If that is a troll, then he is lacking in the trolling department.Unless they're trolling.

From the perspective of someone who can amass such a substantial collection of knives in a few months, the Tanaka ironwood is probably indeed the starting point for friends with similar background.

I'm ok with Mods voicing an opinion of his own regarding the topic at hand. Mods are also members with opinions just like regular members.
But I would recommend that when a Mod voices a warning as a Mod, that there is a notification in the post that the message is being said in the role of being a Mod. That makes it more clear to members that certain threads are being moderated rather than being opinioned/opinionated.
I understand your point. My post was just about how I think Mods should separate their opinions and their moderations in general practice.
I gotta tell ya... I was thinking about this topic last night and realized the gratification gained from scoring my first Raquin, Hazenberg, Kato, Shig, Hinoura etc...
The loop holes I had to go through for each of those knives just made it that much more special and that's something I have came to appreciate.
Regarding Gan and the post you guys shouldn't have put here... perhaps it's just that some in the knife community prioritize certain makers, work hard to catch them when they're dropped. And perhaps most importantly, don't talk mess and sound like little brats when they can't get one.
Funny I was chatting with someone about this. The idea of a chase doesn't excite me, but that's just me. I get my fun from using the knife and talking to the maker, retailer and/or previous owner about it.
