I just went back through the posts and found this one from me back in 5/2009. A lot has changed in the past 1 1/2 years! I only have one of those knives listed here on my current list, and it is the ZT0500 MUDD.

I find that my tastes have been changing so frequently with the knives that I have been buying. I recently made an effort that before I buy any knife I wait a month and then I get it, I haven't bought that many knives recently, but at least 4 out of my top 5 have not changed in a while.
 
Lets say the Knife God's made you choose to keep only 5 of YOUR folders that you currently have in your collection; what would they be? Not a dream team but five from what you already have-

For Me:
Custom Shop Buck 112 in S30V and Stag
Full size Grip in D2
Syderco Tenacious
Devin Thomas Damy Buck 110 in picked bone
Junglee Venom in ATS-34

Also, I think if you should add a new knife (I'm wishing for an Alias I) then do a update to your five.

Nearly TWO years: Update your Five!!!

Here are mine, in no particular order:

Lone Wolf Paul "Defender" with custom buffalo horn scales
Zero Tolerance 0300
Strider SnG with tiger striped blade
Benchmade Snody First Production Gravitator combo edge (in my avatar)
Kershaw 5200 with tortoise shell scales
 
Five from the current lot, no order:

1. Strider SMF CC Stonewash
2. Lionsteel SR-1
3. ZT 0551
4. Sage 2
5. SuperLeaf

The add on is tough as I have the following on order right now:

1. Jake Hoback Custom Ti Framelock flipper
2. Unmumzaan
3. Lionsteel Carbon Fiber/G10 Daghetta
4. ZT Hinderer 0550 (2)
5. ZT Hinderer Flipper (2)
6. Spyderco CTS-20CP Para 2 (2)
7. Spyderco Ti Fluted Milli
8. Spyderco CTS-B75P Manix 2 sprint
9. Spyderco Native 5 G-10 in S35VN
10. Spyderco Dialex Junior
11. Spyderco Butch Vallotton Folder
12. Spyderco/Lionsteel LionSpy

PS Who am I kidding? I'd cheat... and have the alternates AND a BM 610 Rukus, BG-42 110, etc. I'm a fickle knife-slut!
 
Only 5? Geez...let's see...

Large Classic Sebenza
3" XM-18
Spyderco Para 2

Not listed in any order:

Spyderco Carbon Fiber S90V Paramilitary 2

ETA: In reality this list would change daily. My "favorite knives" change with the wind. ;)
 
RJ Martin Wedding Q36
RJ Martin Stag Variable
RJ Martin Transfusion
Brad Southard AWT

Then I would denounce the Knife Gods and live on the run with all my folders.
