Since atheism relates to belief and agnosticism relates to knowledge, the two terms aren't mutually exclusive. I describe myself as an "agnostic atheist": I don't believe in a god, but I can't know for sure that there isn't one out there somewhere.

Precisely. You're an agnostic and a subset of atheists. As am I. And when discussing the existence of gods in a knowledge-centric context, it's more descriptive and relevant to identify as an agnostic than an atheist.
