Most desired folder right now!!:)

I ordered a red Lionsteel SR1-A last week only to find out they' re having a delay in shipping time and it won' t be here until in atleast 2 weeks. Ouch!

Other than that, the Spyderco Brad Southard Flipper is very high on my list.
 
Spyderco Paramilitary 2

Although... I'm moving to the UK soon, so I doubt that'll happen. Instead what I really need/want is a Spyderco UK Penknife.
 
well, NOW I want that Spyderco flipper haha. Les George VECP, Boker Whale by Anso, Benchmade 581 and a bunch more that I can't think of at the moment!
 
I know it's not a folder, but lately I've been really drawn to the Cold Steel Trailmaster. It's something about the aesthetics of it. I hope getting one will finally curb my "useless fixed blade" addiction permanently. As for folders, I'm presently searching for one to obsess over. I was very interested in a Gunhammer but am increasingly unsure about it.

LionSteel SR-1 in "lizard" damascus. Beautiful goddamn knife, though by the time I can afford it it'll probably be sold out.

LOL, yeah same here, I was just looking at that knife last night, the "rain drop" is cool too. If you are going to buy an SR-1 Ti might as well spend the extra on the damascus.

Don't worry, with two kids in college I won't be able to afford one any time soon.
 
I really like a few of my knives to the point that picking them up illicits immediate thoughts of "I'm not worthy!'.

For years, it was my Buck Custom Shop 110 in teardrop Damascus, flaming koa wood, and nickel silver bolsters:

Then, two years ago last month, I celebrated a life-milestone - after 47 yr of working, I got my first SS retirement income. I bought an Umnumzaan - a WC 'StarTac'. At $430 shipped, it was 2.5X the custom Buck 110's cost - but what a knife!

I - or my wife - spent some considerable moola since getting the 'zaan trying to duplicate the 'thrill' of getting a new super knife. I have several nice ZT's, a TILT!, a plain small Sebbie, a Ti SR-1, etc, but that 'thrill' seems gone, save my above pictured pair. I am on a moratorium - no new knives for me for a bit. No lusting for anything at present, either.

I remember a time, decades ago, when a basic Buck 110 caused a similar effect!

It has been a ZT0551, but I have one that should be delivered today. Now I'm lusting after a Sebenza. Probably going to be a long time until I can get that one though.
 
I've been wanting a paramilitary 2. I have the money and they are available but it's not the kind of knife I would normally daily carry. It would be for camping and other outdoor activities which I am slowing down on as the rainy/cold north west season begins. Not sure if it's worth it to buy now since I really don't "need" it right now.

Also catching my eye are the limited colored SAK cadets showing up on amazon. I want one but I already have a normal one and honestly if the color coating got scratched it would annoy me a bit and I don't want any safe queens. Maybe it's time to get some for upcoming birthday/Christmas to gift to friends.
 
Hmmmm...where should I start?:)
