OK guys, I need some help here picking out my next bark river knife. I'll start by telling you what I already have how I like them. All my knives are piggy-backed with micro sized knives.
I have an Aurora with a Micro Canadian, as well as a Fox River with a Micro Tusk piggyback set-up. These are my two favorite Bark River sets, no question. In fact, these are my favorite piggyback sets in my whole knife collection.
I have a Bravo-1 with a Micro Canadian. I am really impressed with the slicing ability of the Bravo-1. The geometry is superb and allows the edge to be much more acute than you would expect from a knife thats .215 thick. That said, the knife is a little thick for my taste. I use it a lot and its a joy to use but I usually opt for a thinner knife.
I have a Rogue bowie and custom semi skinner set-up. This is a beast of a set up!!! This is the set I usually take when weight is not an issue. I love this set but its to big to be practical for just hanging out in the woods.
I have a Glen Eagle Axe, a Golok, and the KSF Machete.
I had a Canadian special but it was never comfortable to me so I traded it(ended up with the rogue).
NOW, here's where I need help.
I have a few that have been on my list for a while and I need help figuring out which one (I can only get one right now) I should get next.
These are the knives I'm between.

I told you what I already have and why I liked them, so with that in mind, maybe you guys could give me some thoughts on which one to get next.
Thanks...
P.S. if anyone could post a pic of the EDC SAEX or the Fox Mag with other knives or in hand for reference I would appreciate it.
