If I could only have two, I'd want them to be large and dedicated users. Even though I started out with a few Rats, I'd have to go with my Dog and Hog:

Plenty more out there I'd like to try or buy, but right now I can't imagine being happier with a user pair than I am with my 1311 and B8 LE.
Others on my wish list are:
CGFBM
B11 or 1111
MBC (Magnum Bear Cub)
Hell Razor, BG ordered!
Wanted a 6" RMD and then by magic Jerry brought out th JMD, ordered
TGLB, although the B8 stands in nicely for this size
That is just awesome, is that blood? That is a beautiful blade, thanks for posting it.
You guys have some of the coolest knives I have ever seen for sure, what is the name of that one? Very cool!!
Thanks Maka...it's a Team Gemini from Blade 14'. ...and she is a complete user.
Dang!! There are some objects of desire there man! Thanks for the awesome pic. What is that one on the bottom right with the blue handle? That is so cool!
That is a triple harpoon AMS. Only the first harpoon is sharpened but the convex blade is so sharp it's ridiculous. I suspect beef to be the culprit.
Yea...I originally had a TGLB and then got this. It's a bit heavier than a TGLB but it is all I have ever needed out of a knife. Not too heavy to carry ALL day...cuz I do....and can get all the small jobs done as well. Too bad they quit making them...such a legendary blade style.
That is a cool shot. What kind of material is the handle made of? Looks awesome, comfy.
Handle Material Used
All Scrap Yard knives come equipped with Resiprene C handles. Think of Resiprene C as an all-terrain truck tire with better chemical resistance.
Resiprene C was made famous as a handle material when it was used on the Busse Combat Basics. These handles have all the advantages of rubber handles without any of the disadvantages. They are comfortable, shock absorbing, slip resistant when wet, and provide insulation from the cold. Unlike Kraton, Resiprene C is a Non-hygroscopic material which means that it will neither "take on" or "emit" fluids. This quality not only gives them unparalleled durability but makes them extremely easy to keep clean as dirt will simply not stick to them. It is impervious to salt water and petroleum based chemicals, and is much more resistant to higher and colder temps than is Kraton. Resiprene C is likewise impervious to the powerful insect repellent, DEET. It is so amazingly tough and durable that Busse stands as the only company to have ever put a Lifetime Guarantee on a rubber handle. All Scrap Yard handles are fully textured to supply a slip-resistant purchase in any grip configuration. So, whether you hold the blade in a saber grip, reverse grip, upside down grip, side grip, or whatever which way you are required to hold it for your particular application, you will be assured of having a secure hold.
maybe this bad boy... but seeing these picks, it's clear that I need a nmfbm... need.

Those are Res-C handles, used on the Busse Basics and all Scrap Yard knives (except the Scrapazashi I think).
Here is some info from the Scrap Yard site:
