[ch_br]

Post em up and laugh here...

Because when they are speaking or upset about it NONE of us can laugh...

BUT AFTER, well we all need a d@mn good laugh and to share it with the rest of the flock.

Share the following about what your partner has said or done, regarding your Steel & Stone hobby:

1. Direct Quotes
2. Stories
3. Anecdotes
4. Etc.

But remember one rule: names in stories must be changed to protect the innocent!

A Dialogue my SLF (special lady friend) and I have had a few different forms about sharpening items left out:

SLF: "...Why does this rock always need to be ON the counter?"

Me: "Baby cuz I need it to touch up the stones to keep em sharp!"

SLF: "But these knives are already sharper than anything else I've ever touched."

Me: "Honey, I love you, especially when you perfectly argue my case for me!"

SLF walks off, rolling eyeballs incessantly.

"Which one of your knives can I use to kill this crab?"

 

[ethompson]

"Do your pet rocks have names"

"What the ****? This box weighs like 50#, what do you have in here, rocks?"

"I don't understand why the movers can't grab that stuff too. It's just rocks, what's the worst that could happen?"

 

[ethompson]

FIL, "which knife should I use?"
Wife from another room, "I'm not allowed to use any of them!"
Me, receiving a quizzical look, "Okay, I caught her cutting an apple on a plate with a honyaki"
*gets another quizzical look*
Sigh, "she was going to ruin the plate and knife and I thought she'd cut a finger off"
FIL, "Makes sense"

Text notification: “Did u buy this brick for $80 on Amazon??? Seriously????”

 

[ethompson]

"So you're telling me that some guy you've never actually met is sending you thousands of dollars worth of knives and stones to just play with? And you do that with other people?"

"These people know where you live?!"

 

[ethompson]

Her checking past orders:

Text notification: “Did u buy this brick for $80 ...”

Oh my sweet summer child, wait 'till you catch the JNat bug...

"I don't know what ¥142,000 is in USD, but I know it's more than you should be spending on a rock"

 

[tostadas]

Her checking past orders:

That sounds like a good deal to me

 

[ahhactive]

S.o: You guys text each other so much its like you guys are dating. Go sleep with your "knife wife" and get rid of that pavement brick. Its unsightly!

[tostadas]

"Can I use this or do you need to rub your rocks on it first?"

"Can I use this or do you need to rub your rocks on it first?"

“Help me understand how this one is different from the last one.”

“How many of these ‘cleavers’ do you need?”


“Why is our son watching Jon from Japanese knife imports?”

 

[tostadas]

“Help me understand how this one is different from the last one.”

It's not a new one. I've had this forever.

 

[BillHanna]

“….yeah okay.”


“What came in the mail today?”


“S I G H.”


Dr Rectlove or: How She Learned To Stop Worrying And Love The Knife

 

[BillHanna]

It's not a new one. I've had this forever.

I think she’s willfully ignoring new knives.

 

[tostadas]

I think she’s willfully ignoring new knives.

Ever wonder why I spec out all my custom cleavers to the same dimensions?

 

[ch_br]

“Why is our son watching Jon from Japanese knife imports?”

He's a personal friend. Thats much safer than OF or kinky porn honey..."

 

[ch_br]

I think she’s willfully ignoring new knives.

Wise woman, knows what battles to fight...

Thats the losing end, if there ever was one...

 

[ahhactive]

"Since you have so much knife now,i think it's my turn to get some bags" *starts selling my *****

 

[DarwellianEmpire]

Her: “Who the hell are you texting at 3am!?”
Me: “Sorry babe I’m on the forums talking about knives again”

Also her: “ANOTHER ROCK!? GREAT, HOW MUCH DID THIS ONE COST!?”

 

[ethompson]

Her: “Who the hell are you texting at 3am!?”
Me: “Sorry babe I’m on the forums talking about knives again”

Also her: “ANOTHER ROCK!? GREAT, HOW MUCH DID THIS ONE COST!?”

I respond with “do you really want to know?”

 

[DarwellianEmpire]

I respond with “do you really want to know?”

I make her guess.

The best part is that sometimes she’ll actually ask me and then listen to me go into way too much detail about what I’ve been working on. She’s a keeper.

Thats funny cuz I literally tell my wife's stories to the forum..

THEN I SHOW HER THE POSTS!

But she's a down mofo and laughs... No joke

My wife has been conditioned to call the forum "the steel and stone or the rock gang"

"So you're telling me that some guy you've never actually met is sending you thousands of dollars worth of knives and stones to just play with? And you do that with other people?"

"These people know where you live?!"

You’re welcome, lol.

“They all look the same to me”

My wife has been conditioned to call the forum "the steel and stone or the rock gang"

My wife refers to this place as “The Knife Boyz”. She actually got me into the rabbit hole by buying my first “nice” knife… a Middleton Made. I feel quite fortunate.

I do like when she sees a knife she doesn’t recognize and says “oh is that a new knife?”. I say “oh no, I’ve had this one for a while.”

 

[Heckel7302]

“So you are telling me that on the way to visit your aunt and uncle you want us to drive 30 minutes out of the way so you and some guy you met on the internet can play with each others rocks?”

“Yeah, I just need a couple hours with him.”

“A couple hours? What are we supposed to do?”

“Look, I found an ice cream stand and a playground near by. You and the kids can hang out there. They’ll love it. “

“”

(Gets back in the car a couple hours later)

“That looks like more rocks than you went in there with”

“true, but think about how much I saved on shipping!”
