This Trump adviser really likes knives

Either White House aide Sebastian Gorka has a budding hobby, or there's something he needs to tell us. Business Insider's Natasha Bertrand noticed Friday that Gorka has been on somewhat of a rampage lately following knife companies on Twitter:
Recently, Gorka followed AKTI-Am Knife & Tool (Twitter handle @SaveOurKnives), Cold Steel, Knife Thursday, SOG Knives, Benchmade Knife Co, Spyderco Knives, Kershaw Knives, Emerson Knives, Inc., Blade Show, Knife Depot, Knife Center, Blade HQ, Boker Knives, and Knife Informer.
It appears Gorka has yet to comment on his following spree.
