I just recently developed interest into these amazing tools. At the first of the year I didn't have any, now I have these and am always looking for new ones. In your opinion, what should I acquire next?

Hmmmm. Some great ones there. Maybe some carbon fiber!
 
I am going to say Micarta Insingo as well, different handle and blade from what you have.
 
My vote is also for an Insingo, but with plain scales, no inlay. It's an awesome knife!
 
I would also say the plain Jane Insingo or Mnandi. A large Regular wouldn't hurt either. :):thumbup:
 
Definitely a Mnandi. I have a 25 and a Mnandi in Ebony and use it for a lot of things.
 
Small Plain Jane Insingo is my vote. Next in line would be a Small Plain Jane Reg. Next in line would be a. . . Wait, I won't get carried away.;)
 
I've got a large plain insingo, and I'm trying to decide between a 25 or a CF slab. oh the decisions.
 
Well, I picked up a stars and stripes BG42 large regular. I think I got a hell of a deal on it! What next? :D

Red Mag: I have a LOT of fixed blades back at home, in my safe. I don't EDC them and only take them out when I deploy. The tanto PS is a really nice knife, i may pick one up but wont until I get back to the states.
 
You gotta go smaller now ssgwhite!

I thought the Mnandi and small would be too small but then I got a crazy good deal on a Mnandi in the exchange and man does it pack a ton of utility in a small, light yet ergonomic package. The wood CRK uses is gorgeous too, as are the mammoth and ivory I'm sure.

I say get an Mnandi and be converted, then you won't be able to help yourself but want a small.
 
I see. So I recommend the lg Insingo. I find that blade shape very useful at everyday tasks.
Especially the non sharpened part of the tip.
The handle configuration depends on your personal preference.
From what I see you will go plain jane; that said I like the micarta inlay during wintertime.
All the best

I like the inlays and the Mnandi; both are great looking. I'm just afraid to mess them up; the plain titanium I can blast or scotchbrite. I think I will look into the mnandi; I can always sell it if I don't care for or use it.
 
Definitely a mnandi. Everyone who likes crk should at least try out a mnandi. It's one of the best gentlemans folders ever. Perfect for nights out, special occasions, etc. Or if you want a challenge, try to hunt down a regular.
 
Go insingo, great utility blade. I just grabbed a Large CF insingo a few weeks ago and it's great, also have a small insingo and a 25. The small is my favorite blade for going out. I want a mnandi next but can't come to grips on the price tag yet, if I could find one for under 300 I do it in a heartbeat.
