There seems to be a million threads about the knives you already own so how about one where you list the knives you want? Limit it to 5 knives that are on your 'soon to be purchased' list. They have to be knives your actually gong to/can buy not ones totally out of your price range or otherwise unavailable. Heres mine in no particular order:

1) Gerber Spectre (i really like the design for some reason)

2) fallkniven A1 (thats not a knife....THIS is a knife!)

3) Klotzli Walker M1 (refined)

4) Boker applegate (pointy!)

5) Swiss champ (Ive wanted one of these since I was a kid!)
 
5 knives that I plan to get in the near future:

1.Schatt&Morgan equal-end whittler (hope to find one at knife show in Tenn. next month)

2.Queen's stag bone D2 whittler (when I can find one)

3.Becker Companion (I have the BK C/U 7 and I just want another Becker knife)

4.Buck custom 110 with stag handles,BG-42 blade,ns bolsters...(I planned to get one earlier this year but my CUDA MAXX 5.5 got the money)

5.When the verdict comes out on the new mistery steel I'd like to get a Marble's Trailmaker but I'll wait a while on this one.

This is my obtainable dream for now. I'm still saving my money to give to DDR.

1) Microtech Tachyon- first on the list. I really wanna flip this one

2) Camillus CUDA MAXX 5.5 - love the size

3) Benchmade Model 43 - Damasteel Blade / Damasteel, Benchmade, and a bali can't go wrong there

4) Benchmade Model 49-03 American Kriss Balisong

5) some kind of multitool don't know if it counts but i want one that's lefty friendly

Got offered my summer internship today so now I guess I can afford some of these.

What I want:

A Camillus Maxx with a big curved blade, curved grip, sorta like a giant Cold Steel Scimitar. And the clip relocated to the pommel so that it doesn't mess up the lock, or ditched altogether so the knife can ship with a REALLY good sheath.

They don't make it yet, so the Sifu stays as daily carry.

if its pointy it counts ;) i like the leatherman crunch and the leatherman wave but i dont know how left handed they are. I had a classic leatherman and was quite impressed. I bought my girlfriend a mini champ SAK a few weeks ago and was really impressed with their quality, I guess i just remember the cheap copies of them from when I was a kid but the real thing is alot better made than i expected for some reason.

Congradulations on your summer internship, im from england and am not totally sure what one of those is but it sounds like its proably a good thing !!!
 
Hey bladefixation; do you mean the Cold Steel Spike? Yeah, I just ordered the tanto one today! Check out my thread here

Anyway, have that on the way, and:

2. a Strider BN, or maybe just a longer BT. (A BT-L, isn't it?)

3. A William Henry Kestrel Carbon Fiber handle (maybe...)

That's about it for now.

Metis

Where is your Internship at Ryan?
 
Well here's five out of the many:
1 Queen Large Stockman in Cocobolo w/D2 blades
2 Victorinox Tinker
3 Medium Mayo TNT (this will take some time but one day)
4 Benchmade Balisong - probably the Bowie blade one
5 Puma Stag handled stockman

If I am lucky by the end of the year I will have 1 and 2, possibly 5!
 
  1. small Timascus TNT on order :cool:
  2. plus I'm headed straight for the Badlands Booth to see about some immediate titanium and Talonite in just 8 more days :D
  3. maybe a Queen D2 slipjoint, if I find an interesting pattern while I'm at Blade
  4. I've sent some emails to Ed Caffrey to get more info about his new Progression M folder; probably going to be ordering
    [/list=1]
 
1) Scott Cook Lochsa folder
2) Carson model 16 frame-lock with stellite blade
3) Mayo medium TNT with drop point blade
4) Obenauf small model 2 frame-lock
5) Ralph/Wilson frame-lock collaboration
 
No particular order, just want em.

William Henry- Amber series Spearpoint

Ka-Bar- Bob Dozier Thorn

Chris Reeve- Fixed bladed Tanto- Almar(?)

Protech- New Mike (Whiskers)Allen scale release.

At some point I'll be picking these up. Can't wait:)
 
(1) Victorinox Ranger. Midway between the Leatherman Micra and the PST II.
(2) Chris Reeve Large Classic Sebenza. I have the Small classic.
(3) American Tomahawk Vietnam Tactical. I grew up with an axe in my hand. Now I want a tomahawk.
(4) Neck knives. I'm on a neck knife kick.
(5) Benchmade 721 Mel Pardue. I have the 720. Now I want it's G10-handled twin!
(6) Benchmade 710. I already have a 705 and it is great. I think the longer blade would be awesome!
(7) Delta-Z DZ-6110-AS locking liner. I want to try them out at the Blade show!
(8) Belt sheaths for folders! I know it isn't a knife but I really need a supply of high-quality (preferably leather) belt sheaths for my folders. Ok, I'm a small guy. A big folding knife carried in my front pocket looks... odd. :D.
 
1) Becker Knife & Tool Camp Magnum (from Jerry Fisk, hand-sharpened)
2) Becker Knife & Tool Machete
3) Gerber Yari
4) Dozier Arkansas Toothpick
5) Camillus Black Ops CQB-3 (plain edge)
 
1.) Darrel Ralph Medium EDC with Ti frame-lock (on its way!)
2.) DDR Small EDC
3.) DDR Large EDC
Is this getting repetitive, sorry:D
4.) Large Sebenza (plain only, NOT the Classic profile)
5.) Crawford New Shark with Micarta handles/satin finish blade.

May take me a while but I won't be buying anything else too soon. Got several SAK's and a Leatherman. Have no use for fixed blades.

Leo G.
 
1. William Henry Icon Interframe - Snakewood
2. Elishewitz Damascus King
3. Klotzli Sailor
4. Spyderco Trakk'r
5. mystery knife that doesn't cost a bundle but makes me happy anyway.
 
I'm saving up money right now. I'm trying to decide between these once I have the money. Listed in order of leading contention:

1) Scott Cook small Owyhee.

2) Bob Lay hunter.

3) Marbles' Loveless design 10" Trailmaker with leather handles. Must be of carbon steel though.

4) A Randy Lee knife. I've suddenly been drawn to some of his knives when I see them on Ebay.
