In 2026 I will not buy a knife based on aesthetics or steel. Instead I will buy knives based on functionality and feel.
I shall limit myself to only 2 knife purchases for the year of 2026
I will not cut myself with my SAK in 2026. 😒

I refuse to buy into this kind of negativity.

I resolve to continue buying knives based on whatever whimsical impulse, emotional warm and fuzzies and/or completely imaginary need may strike me at the moment. I make no bones about my weaknesses, and I have zero intention of changing. ;)

Not sure if this is mostly satire or not lol! Either way, best of luck in your 2026 endeavors, knife related or otherwise!

My Late this Year and upcoming New Year Knife(s) Resolution is buy / spend more on custom made knives and goods by members of this forum, and less on mass production knives.

Mass produced knives are great, and absolutely have a place in the industry and in my lineup. However, I currently have zero small batch / one off custom knives and want to change that..

I think you should get it and only open up your letters with it, otherwise youre probably doing it wrong

Look, it's an automatic karambit with interchangeable blades, from AEB-L no less, and it comes with a discreet carrying system. On paper, it's flawless.

In reality, my goal is to buy fewer knives, but when I do buy I'll aim for bigger. I want a functional sword.

It violates the basic rule of SAKs - As soon as you say, "I will not cut myself with my SAK today," you will definitely cut yourself with a SAK today.

Especially with the new synergy models. Liner opens left to right leaving your probably thumb right in the guillotine that is the sak blade's path, snaps shut like a mouse trap

Dawson makes bank account slapping swords.
If you aren't opening up your letters with a wrist karambit then im not sure im convinced youre serious enough about your mail...
 
No promises, but my goal for the coming year is to sell more knives than I buy, as I have another habit that needs feeding. I just got into wood turning recently, and the need for materials is nonstop, while the need for tools and supplies easily rivals that of needing new knives. I have so many that never have been and never will be used, and any connection I have with many of them seems to dwindle with time; but pen kits, blanks and finishing materials are always getting used up. So far about a half dozen knives sold have netted me a crapload of turning tools and accessories.
