You bring a straight to work and finish honing it during slow times.

I actually used to do that very thing. I had a suspicion I might be hooked when I began to know the names of the USPS, FedEx and UPS carriers that service my area ...... and I have a problem keeping the boxes that the stuff was delivered in .... almost no room for me.

People dont even notice it since I always have to hone my knives at work anyway haha.

my fed ex guy asked why I keep getting stuff from all over the world.

I was thinking about my tools and thought I found one.. A gear puller. [Heavy duty.] An then I thought DANG! I need to rebuild the blower on my forge!

When you clean out your shed that was full of junk for years and turn it into a work shop.

You know you're hooked when dozens of other men on the internet know your name and what you've been up to.

I do number three a lot too, it's amazing how I can sneak it into just about any conversation...

I do the same actually. I was most pleased, when I was on the farm last time, to see the old man come out of the bathroom with a tissue up against his face (he shaves with a battery powered cartridge razor, which never ceases to raise a contemptous smile on my face), walks into the kitchen, which happened to have to be full with house guests at the time. I looked at him and said, "What?! Did you actually cut yourself shaving did you?!" He said "No!" and I said, "If I lend you my 8/8 or my 13/16 cut throat, it might make you pay more attention. Do you want to borrow one?" His reply remains umprintable, but it got a good razor conversation going amongst the guests and myself.

Is face-trubating in public a crime?
