I did a "what's your latest purchase" a few months back and it went over like mad, so here we go again....let's hear it, what's your latest knife(s) what did you pay and where'd ya get 'em?
Here's mine:
1-11-2003 New Spyderco Mouse, Ebay, $39.95:eek: :D
1-11-2003 New SOG Sculptura, Ebay, $24.99(I always wished Benchmade would have made a small axis type knife, but SOG beat 'em to it!)
12-10-2002 New Spyderco Navigator, SMKW, $29.99:D

Next on my must-have list are:
1)Benchmade 941/943/940/942 can't decide which yet, but thats the order I'd want, Probably from Ebay, been trying to grab one for under $90 (...But Don't count me out on this one!)

2)Timberline Mini- Pitbull, from whoever has 'em cheapest!:confused:

The newbies plus the 2 on the want list, along with the ol' trusty BM556 and SAK is going to be IT, whatever else I find laying around goes! 7 great blades, one for each day of the week (I swear I didn't plan it like that)

WHEW..........

Ok, your turn!!!!
 
My two latest knife purchases have consisted of a Spyderco Navigator and a Benchmade 770. The Navigator came from Smokey Mountain Knifeworks, and it cost me $29.99 plus postage. The Benchmade 770 I picked up for $93 shipped from a source that has sworn me to secrecy, besides they don't have anymore at this price. The individual I received the 770 from sent me a Prototype!:eek: That Bastid! I wanted a 770 for an EDC, now I'm stuck with a prototype.:rolleyes: :p

Now I'm starting to save all my pennies for a Benchmade 705. :)

I don't know if this counts, but I was given a Benchmade model 31s Proto. as a Christmas present. My first Balisong!
 
I wouldn't mind being "Stuck" with a BM770 prototype(and I don't mean stabbed!);)
705's are champs from what i hear, I may have to upgrade someday from my minigrip.
 
I just bought an old vintage Schrade Trapper in yellow cwlluloid that was absolutely mint, still in the original plastic sleeve.

It had just a little sentimental value to me because it is the same model as my first knife, given me by my dad.

I'm already carrying this one.
 
In the past 90 days, I've purchased three BM 750 Pinnacles, none of which was the same. Here's why:
For one I paid $100, for the other two I paid $60 and $65. And I gotta tell ya, if I see one more (the satin PE) at $65 it's gonna be number four. :p geegee
 
geegee, were those pinnacles new in the box?! Even if not its still a deal.
 
Had to add a update, I didnt really plan on buying one just yet but I found a deal too hard to pass.
I won a brand spanking new Benchmade 940 with box and all paperwork for $80 on Ebay tonight, Cheaper than I was shooting for!! I couldn't believe it, I've been on a roll lately picking up great, spankin' new knives for a song.:D Could this be the one true bright side of a recession??

I finally got a MT OTF, Halo III, to be exact. I had to trade some gold/silver (nearly $300 worth, but I paid quite a bit less) It's a great time to buy knives! Gold is up, prices on knives are down. Now, if I could just get that raise...:rolleyes:

Within the last month or so:

Winchester large stockman/whittler (30/30 cartridge series), $82 from Ron Ryder at Cutters and Collectors. (Sweeeeet. Uh, the knife I mean. Well, Ron's not bad either.)

2 Buck 110's, $29.95 each from Walmart.

Cold Steel Master Hunter, $47 from Wholesale Hunter.
 
I just purchased a Boye Basic II fixed blade and it is a really nice little knife. Picked it up from a B&M store for $64.
 
I am on a buying spree lately, within the last month I picked up:

Benchmade 710HS, $110.00 on EBAY

Benchmade 806D2 $110.00 on EBAY

Benchmade Limited Edition 730CFHS $175.00 from C-Rums

Benchmade Limited Edition 690BC1CF $150.00 from local gun shop

Camillus E.D.C. in D2 $85.00 from A.G. Russell

I love the carbon fiber Benchmades, with the 2 new purchases I have the BM 941D2CF, BM 730CFHS, and the BM 690BC1CF. I hope Benchmade keeps producing the carbon fiber limiteds.
 
Not exactly a new knife since I already had it but it feels new to me. That would be the LDC-5 I sent back to John Smith for some modifications. Cost was around $40.00. I have a framelock coming tomorrow from John and later this week another Smith framelock from Bladeart, cost on either :D :D ;) :D :D ! A Severtech auto is coming on Tuesday or Wednesday @ $225.00. Last but not least the distributor I buy some of my knives from has a shipment of the new CRKT's coming in this week and I have a D.O.G. reserved. Don't know the price but it is wholesale:D with state sales tax added:( . Still cheaper than I could get it anywhere else!
 
My latest purchase was a Loveless drop point hunter. I got the knife fro AG Russell for $2500.00. Thats a savings of $500.00 I'm real happy with my purchase. 48harley
 
My latest purchases were a Benchmade 40T for $75 and a CRKT M16-14FD for $50. I bought the CRKT as my EDC, but I'm not too crazy about the tanto profile or the chisel grind so next on my list is a BM 705. I do wish the 705 came in M2 steel, but oh well.
 
Color me pathetic--I just realized that it's been so long since I bought a knife that I don't even remember which one is my newest :( .

I gotta get started for the new year...
