New knife decision...

Nowhere near enough info.
But I'm going to take a shot in the dark here and say... buy a BM 950 Rift, assuming you don't have one already.
An exclusive is currently available at a good dealer for a very good price with S30V and orange/black scales. Google will find it for you.
 
I'm quite happy with what I have right now. So in principal I shouldn't be getting any more knives. But damn this forum and photobucket. My reason for buying a knife more often than not involves seeing a post about knife and having an, "I gotta have it" moment. I think that's good enough reason for me! I do have better impulse control now more than ever though and have reined it in a bit so I no longer have two or three packages waiting for me when I get home from work during any given week. Lol. I had a bad period where I would get 4 knives in and 2 maybe 3 knives would be packed up for shipping not 15 minutes into getting the knife in my hand. I really wish I lived near some giant big box knife store to get my hands on everything that tickles me.

Well, usually I will have some kind of reason to buy a knife. It may not be a good reason, but a reason nonetheless. Maybe it's a different blade shape, or size, or steel. Maybe I want to try out a different manufacturer. Maybe a knife that I am normally not especially interested in I found at a great bargain and couldn't pass up at the lower price. Maybe I have the exact knife already but now there's a new handle color or material. Or maybe I've decided that I really, really like whatever it is I am carrying and want a spare.

Right now none of those reasons apply to me, but if you are looking for reasons, those are some. If you are smart with your money, you won't just buy a knife to be buying one, but will wait until you have a specific need or want in mind. Assuming you have some sort of recurring knife budget, the longer you wait, the nicer knife you can afford.

Strangely enough, orange is actually on.my list of desires for a knife right now...as well as S30V. But mostly the orange! Should see my ebay search history "orange G10 S30V"...
