Been a knife collector since about age 10 and my collection has gradually advanced to higher and higher quality knives over the past 20 years. I’ve never been much of a cook but have recently developed an interest in high quality cutlery and found my way here! Hope to learn a lot from you all!

Excellent! Welcome.
Very curious about what it means to be interested in high quality cutlery, but not cook. I'm not casting aspersions, just trying to understand. I know there are pure collectors here, plenty of them, or there would not be so many BNIB (brand new in box) offerings on the BST (Buy, Sell, Trade Forum).
Not as of yet but I’m always on the lookout. Have any notable names that you recommend I check out?
Good question! I guess I combination of a couple reasons. One, although I don’t cook often, I do still cook on occasion and everyone has to have some knives in the kitchen, may as well be something to be proud of. And two, pure bragging rights/showing off! Silly maybe but it’s an interesting, different, completely new world of knives and I’m enjoying exploring it!
Unfortunately no, I don't know much about TX at this time.
Well, I’ve heard mention of a couple different names. Honestly haven’t had too much time to look into them yet though. I’ll certainly keep you posted when I do!

https://homebutcher.com/This is a shop in SATX. They have a selection from a variety of makers, some US based. That might be a good place to start if you are looking to learn about makers based in TX.
I’ll be sure to stop in there when I get down that way, thanks!
