The Truth Unveiled: Is this even legal?

  • Seems that just as I am hitting a new phase of my channel, there is a wave of TH-camrs quitting the platform. I have not been around long enough to speak on authority on the subject, but I have to wonder what is driving the mass exodus. I am quite fortunate to not rely on the income generated from a monetized channel for living expenses. Someday that would be a fun thing to experience, but for now, I want the channel to be self-amortizing.
    I found a way to still get knives, but not add them to my collection. In other words, I discovered a loophole. This is great news and makes me very happy. For those of you who were concerned that my channel was in peril due to my moratorium on buying knives, rest assured that I am not going anywhere and will still be at it, but a little differently.
    I'd love it if you Subscribed.

    Mr. Tom. Happy to see your channel is prospering from your hard work. I really enjoy the wit and your content. Looking forward to your review of the bushmate.

      Much appreciated! Thank you for the kind words. I look forward to doing the Bushmate video.

    Awwwwww……❤ The only thing more adorable than an addict who swears “no more”?……the one who comes up with a viable and articulate reason explaining why it’s not an addiction. At all. 😂

      You nailed it. Glad you "get" me.
      No problem here sir!!!

    I'm glad you found that loophole.

      It hit me like a bolt as I was drifting off to sleep. Thank goodness for the notepad by the bed!!!

    Loopholes! I love loopholes!
    I don't have a channel to buy knives, so I get my dog to buy them.

    • @knifetimestory
      @knifetimestory  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Ha!! That sounds easier than what I do. Great idea.

    Loopholes!!! Love 'em!!!
    So glad Tom's mental health ain't suffering.
    I'm also glad that knifey stuff will continue. But honestly, at this point, I'm in. This could swing to a cooking channel and I'd prolly stick around. I'm one of those loyal types, and I enjoy the melodious tones of your soothing voice and winsome ways ... 🙄 AND your crusty curmudgeonly attitude, which I apparently share. 😊
    Now, all I need to do is get a TH-cam channel to buy ME knives... 🤔
    (I'm actually where you are with blades. I've stopped chasing the next knife. Feels good.)

      I've been working on diction and tamber and smoothness as well as a hint of elegance to my voice. If I could learn to talk like @AlfieAesthetics I could make it a "Watching Paint Dry" channel and have a million subs. Wow. But alas, I don't see that happening.
      I'm lucky to have you as a loyal friend. Thank you for your fun and entertaining comments.

    New subscriber. Second video. I applaud your concept. As of tomorrow, my LLC buys all my knives. There, that feels so much better. Thank you! Cheers, RW

    • @knifetimestory

      There you go!! Problem averted. Glad you feel better. I sure do. Thank you for subscribing. I appreciate it very much. I needs me knife $$$$!!! Ha.

    BPS makes great knives. I prefer them to Mora at the same price. Wooden handles and leather sheaths compared to plastic just seem to go better with Bushcraft and nature. I did not make a resolution to stop buying knives, it's just that I have the ones that I wanted to get. But in your case it's different because you have a channel to continue.

    • @knifetimestory
      @knifetimestory  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I almost hate to admit it, because I really do love Mora and especially the Companion that I shortened. th-cam.com/video/N18O3IfJIx8/w-d-xo.html
      But...BPS does seem to hold an edge longer and as much as I like the rubber handle on the Companion, and really trust it when I am wood carving, the idea of simple, traditional wood and steel for a knife really sits better with me.

    Really enjoy your content Tom!
    You've videos have been single handedly made ESEE a handful of sales and a lifetime fan over the past few months. 😂
    At a similar stage with my RC channel, but with muuuuuch less discipline. 🤣👍
    Love your humor and way with words. Keep it up friend! 👍

    • @knifetimestory
      @knifetimestory  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you very much. I appreciate that very kind compliment. It was nice of you to take the time to watch and do that.
      I'm not an RC guy, but I'll sure pop over and see what you've got!!

    I love loopholes on knives….oh wait, that’s lanyard holes…..same thing??? Tom, how about you carving a Buck 119 out of wood? That “wood” be cool!

    • @knifetimestory
      @knifetimestory  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Ha Ha!! Excellent use of puns. You get to sit at the front of the class!!!
      I actually thought of the loophole, lanyard hole thing when I was editing and wondered if anyone would say anything. I guess it could be used that way. And Thong Hole. But, to me that means one thing, anyone under 40 it means another.

    Your reasoning is logical. You didn’t purchase it, knife time did. Waiting for your review on that knife want to see if your mods match mine. Does it count as buying a knife if my wife orders it? I gotta consult Webster’s for full definition of loophole! Thanks for the vid Tom

    • @knifetimestory
      @knifetimestory  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Glad you agree with my logic. Thank you.
      Yes, I believe wife purchases, then gifted to you are covered by the loophole.

    There is this popping noise when I squeeze the handle of my Buck 110, can I fix that somehow?

    • @knifetimestory

      I'd really need to take a look at it. Do all your scales sit nice and flush with the brass?

    "i bought my last knife" ... if you think about this statement, it remains true for every single one you buy. :)

    • @knifetimestory
      @knifetimestory  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes it does. That helps justify every purchase!!!!!

    I think making the time you need to take care of those things we put off for years and years is a great decision and an investment in a happier future.
    Sux we can't go back and make them sooner. ♥
