[QUOTE="kkokkolis, post: 3324900, member: 127913"] I can assure you that Swiss Army Knives' users/collectors are among the most agreeable in the world and their forum is the most gentle and civilized, with minimal moderation. I've seen arguments and escalations when threads derail to politics, hunting, the right to carry guns etc (really rarely) but never about Victorinox vs Wenger or Swiss vs American etc. On the other hand I see such arguments in optics forums, regardless of their target (sky objects, birds, hunted animals, whatever). Other than that I understand what you said Gijs and you are right. We people invest a lot in the material world. If you judge what I bought, you judge my intelligence. If you judge how I observe, you judge my behavior. I might get ungry in both occasions and react. [/QUOTE]
