Knife you would buy again?

Kershaw Skyline. Because it's the only well made knife I could afford to buy multiples of. Plus I put a mirror polish on mine and now I use it for light work but I'm hesitant to beat on it. Oh also the Leek. The knife that got me into knives, and I already did buy it again because I broke the tip off my first one before I knew anything about blade shapes and steels, and generally that the leek is not the best prybar :). But I'd even get another one or two of those as well I'd love a composite or Damascus leek. Also I'd grab another Blur, I only have the Tanto, the plain blade in elmax would be amazing. Oh and I'd get another 110 and probably 650 Nighthawk.

Okay I'll stop there. That escalated quickly lol. Here I thought I was just gonna post skyline...
 
Lefty Umnumzaan for general use, CQC 8 for dirtier stuff; ESEE 4 and Lionsteel M7 fixed blades.

Could cover just about everything with those four and would buy any of those four again if, say, the house burned down and I lost everything.

If I could choose only one, or which one first, it would be the lefty Zaan. Just because it is so cool to simply look at, too!
 
I am Hearing alot of Spyderco Paramilitary 2 and and overwhelming majority of CRK's This is making me want to pull the trigger on my First CRK, I'm thinking a User Small Sebenza.
 
I will buy a Socom Delta again, as soon as I find one with a plain clip-point blade. It combines a sleek modern look with killer lockup and oil-spill smoothness.
 
Low budget but strong, I'd buy any of my Enlan EL-01 models again, probably the Boker Magnum A-Stan, overall good looker and a Torx head pivot as well as the proprietory pattern pivot. Comes in a foam lined tin with the Torx tools to adjust and take apart. The TiNi grey coated blade and tan coloured G10 make for a good looking combination and the knife is built like a tank with no bad points, the steel 8Cr13MoV, is easy to sharpen and heat treated well. Not a super steel but not super steel prices either. After that it would have to be the rosewood scaled model, classic all rounder.
Too many SanRenMu to choose but the 9054MUC-GP gets a mention for the ingenious slip-joint locking mechanism.
 
Assuming I lost my whole assortment of knives, there's only a few I would replace. Folders I think it would just be a Mini Skirmish, if I could find another one. And maybe a 950 Rift. Although I'd probably go for an Umnumzaan before replacing any of them.
Fixed blades , definitely a ZT 0121 and a Street Beat. Of course a BK7, everyone needs a big blade. I could honestly get by A ok with just those.
 
Some I have bought again. Victorinox Rucksack, Izula 2, Buck 105 Pathfinder, Mora Companion variations, Becker BK-2 and BK-5, Leatherman Blast, Spyderco Manix, various Cold Steel folders with the Tri-Ad lock, Ka-Bar Mule, Wetterlings, Granfors Bruks, Fiskars axes and hatchets..
 
I'd buy my sebnza again, even though it's quite a bit of cash.
Actually, the knives that I still have that are high-price I would buy all of again: Sebenza 25, Diskin Fire, Shirogorov 95T

As a matter of fact, I've got a second Diskin Fire on order right now, although this one is for a very good friend of mine...most likley ;)

I'd want to replace all of the knives that were gifts from my girl, but I honestly don't know if I could whole-heartedly replace them. She's gotten me a BM Barrage, PM2, and my SOG Aegis. They've all seen a ton of use, and I don't think I could ever really replace them with anything.
 
Definitely my Enzo birk with a scandi blade.

Probably my Spyderco Bushcraft & Wilder Forge DPFN as well.

edit: this thread needs some pics:

PM2 Camo/Satin
Dragonfly ZDP-189
Schempp Rock
Gayle Bradley

Benchmade:
530
585 Orange mini-barrage

Brous:
Bionic

ESEE:
Izula
5

LionSteel:
Opera

DPX:
HEAT
 
I haven't been disappointed by any of my knives yet. I'd buy them all over again.

And in a few cases I'm doing that now.
 
About every knife I have I would buy again. If not I wouldn't still have them.

I'll just list the production folders I would replace first.....

Small and Large BG-42 Sebenza(but S30V would be fine also)
Small and Large S30V Micarta Classic Sebenza
Carbon Fiber Spyderco Military
Fallkniven TK4
SAK Alox Cadet
Small and Large Case yellow derlin/CV Copperlocks.
Small Moki Fish Owl
