I used to make fun of my Sister-in-law because when she would make a big purchase she would commonly "take to bed". I always viewed this as "Buyer's remorse".
I just paid an exorbitant amount (at least for me) on a pocket knife and I'm also considering "taking to bed".
I can't wait to get it! It is a Combat Troodon with a drop point blade.

I had a similar reaction when I bought my ultratech; it’s a lot of money for a pocket knife. But now I find myself looking at other microtech sand saying, “they’re really not THAT expensive...”. Knives are an addiction.

I have an original Halo, from when they first came out. It cost me a lot back then. If it's something your into you'll spend the money. At my old job someone said can you believe so and so just spent $500 on a radio controlled car. I looked at them and said, hell, I just dropped $400 on a knife that will probably never cut anything. The look I got was priceless. Like I said if it's something your into you'll spend the money.
