I've slowed down a bit since I retired. So far this year, I've added a mini-Adamas, an S35VN ESEE 3, a K390 Para 2, a Springer Mountain Hiker from Dragonfly Bladeworks, a G10/M4 Bugout from SMKW, and a Winkler SD-1. There's not anything else that I'm looking for, so that'll probably be it for new knife additions this year. I may be tempted by a trade or a pre-owned knife that strikes my fancy, but I'm not actively planning for anything else.

OK... edited to add: I ran across a "pre-owned" Hogue Deka that was a good deal, so I added that one in black G10 to backup my camo G-Mascus Deka. These things are almost perfect everyday carries for my needs. Light weight, good steel, well made, plenty of cutting edge... all for <$150. I got my latest one for $115. A little cleaning, a rubdown with a Hoppes silicone cloth, a session on my 1 micron diamond & leather strop, and it's ready to do whatever, whenever.
