Sure, I have a marker collection. More than I need, but that was expected when I wondered in looking for a Rainman pump kit many years ago.
What I have been dealing with lately is a folder knife collection that grew out of a casual MCB yard sale purchase just a few years ago. I bought a couple knives from a post that was wiped out in one of the hackenings. One knife turned out to be very nice everyday carry and the other is fairly collectable now. I used to carry Swiss army knives and multi tools. My wife got used to me having a folder and actually encouraged some purchases. I now have about a dozen, which is a lot of EDC. I just keep reaching for one in my pocket for all sorts of odd tasks. It has also led to better and sharper kitchen knives. I practice on those before my folders.
It's a nice collection, but it started with that one off-hand purchase in the MCB yard sale.
