My Swiss collection

Can't afford a second rolex so I've partnered it with a Swiss Victorinox Knife.

Hope you like the pic.

Wow.

Just Wow.

I certainly wouldn't know where to draw the line amongst my many fine knives, and I certainly wouldn't be able to discern what's "ugly and violent" vs. "useful tool."

I will say that I find it unfathomable to assert that any -- ANY -- knife has "no purpose other than murder." That's ridiculous, as a blade is a blade is a blade. The fact that there is a prohibition on posting pictures of any sort of knife/blade/axe/sword, etc. makes me think a little bit less of what should be a mature adult forum.

This is a public forum and we all have different opinions- and the Mods do what they think is best for the overall benefit of this watch forum. not to spite individual opinions and there other hobbies. maybe there i knife forums too, i have no idea?

P.S this swiss army knife is clearly not offensive in any way in my opinion- it was the massive knives that some people found offensive
