What some well known popular knives that are of good quality and within your budget but you have never owned them?

For me it's:
Spyderco Delica
Buck Ranger 112
Benchmade Griptillian
Opinel #8

Everyone and their cousin seems to own these knives except me. I hear good things about these knives all the time and have similar knives (110, Endura, Opinel 6) but for some reason I've never pulled the trigger on these.
 
Delica or Endura, hated the old pointy blades, but I do plan to try one of the new "4" models.
 
Knife brands I don't own:

Benchmade
Rat
Busse
Ranger
Becker

Nothing wrong with any of them. So many knives and so little time/money;)
 
I don't have any spydies :(

I bought one once but it never made it, I got a Camillus Maxx with the refund.
 
No Spydercos or Byrd's here. No Benchmades either. None of the high end production or semi-production knives either.
 
Wenger SAK's. They used to be cheaper (meaning more inexpensive) than the Vics but now they are as expensive or even more so. I collect Vics but i want to get a Wenger Evo ? (whatever model is their version of the Vic Huntsman). Beside the price thing all the evo's i see online have philips instead of a corkscrew. For me its not a SAK unless it has a corkscrew. Hey everybody has their quirks!
:)
 
Also the Buck Strider, anything "waved" and pretty much all the current popular "tactical" knives.
 
The high-dollar "tactical" knives are of no interest to me.
My only Victorinox is a paring knife.

No opinels, no busse, swamp, boker, becker. Only one benchmade: mini-pika, but it's my edc 90% of the time.
 
I won't own a Spyderco Manix. I did have one and it was truly 100% the perfect knife for me and as such it was ungodly boring to carry and use. I could not wait to sell it and buy something else. Screw perfection, give me interesting.
 
Again, no Busse, no Ranger, no Sebenza, no Griptiliian. I have been contemplating a 110 or 112 but haven't done so yet.
 
No Busse (yet...I do have Rats, and dogs so if they count then I guess I do own Busse), no buck (used to but not any more or ever again), No Sebenza, No Ranger (yet), no Bokers (they just don't fit me). I think I have at least one knife from all the other major makers that I can think of right now.
