If it were me, I'd sell all the blades, and clubs, and anything else that requires me to get close, then I would buy as many 45 caliber pistols, all the same, as I could afford and fill them with Gold Dot ammo. Then scatter them around the house and hide them really, really well, you don't want to come home from the grocery store and find some meth head with your 45 pointed at you. I'd much rather go up against a knife than a gun, knives take training, a pistol, not really. If you think someone has gotten into your house, or may be in your house, run, call the police. Those High Point pistols would work well, if you can afford it move up to the M&P, if you like the feel of a 2x4 go with Glock. Lots of police trade ins out there.

Do you keep the blades around because "I LIK SWOOORDZZZZ!" or because you really think someone is going to break into your house, shoot your wife and dog, and your old wrinkles are going to jump up like a Templar Knight and cleave them asunder? - Sell. You're not only tarded, you're re tarded..

Do you keep them around because you sincerely love the way they're made, know they're not an investment but instead just something you like to look at, and will never use in battle, but will enjoy seeing around the house? - Keep, you're just a man with a hobby.
I know I will never use them in battle, and the swords are not for for battle anyway, but I do love the way they look. With I could run across a good looking muzzelloader rifle with lots of brass to display with them . Heck I seriously doubt I ever need to guns but they do make me feel safer.

The knives just sort of piled up. I think they are mating in my desk drawer as it seems like every time I open it there is another one.

Your not paranoid and keep what you want and get rid of what you dont it is yours to do as you see fit, if i got rid of everything people thought was weird that i own then i would never own anything even the clothes i wear but it is me and my stuff they can take their feelings and shove it where their waste comes out of( i would say where the sun dont shine but who knows now days what people does with their bodies).

Am I being paranoid? I can usually be found sitting at my desk if I am not working on something. I just realized I have 3 handguns, 7 knives, 4 multi-tools also with knife blades, and several reloads for each handgun all in my desk. 9 swords and a battleaxe close by. In the closet is a 12 ga and several more knives.

I am beginning to think I need to trade off some multi-tools at least. Maybe a sword or two. Not sure if I can bring myself to trade a knife or two or not.

What say you oh great and all knowing OSA? Should I lighten the load in my office and desk, or just move more to other rooms?
The question is never "Am I paranoid?" It is always "Am I paranoid enough?"

I can show you what they do if you want.

I have several knives in my dresser and three handguns in the nightstand next to my side of the bed. They’re there not because I think I’ll need them all to battle off the enemy in my house but with the knives I grab the one that I’m in the mood to carry. As for the guns, one is what I keep out at night, one is my daily carry and this little guy is what I clip on my belt when doing yard work in case I need to pop a copperhead or stray dog.
