What is your dream purchase for 2018

[Hermit_Knight]

What knife are you excited to buy this year or do you already have it? I’m saving for a Spartan Difensa, almost there!

 

[Man with no name]

Cold Steel San Mai Tai Pan.

Cold Steel San Mai Tai Pan.

I really hope these are great I think they will be as all my cold steel from Taiwan has been made well.

Spyderco Amalgam and Native LC200N.

Spyderco Amalgam and Native LC200N.

Can’t go wrong there what model native? I like the blacked out blade on the one I saw.

If I can find one an Emerson HD7 in good condition. The one I have is just about ready to get sent in for warranty work but it is so old I don’t know what they will do with it.

Why would you buy a knife that you weren't excited by?

 

[Murphjd25]

Spyderco Redback, aka Allistar Phillips. I dont see any others that I need as of right now hahaha

 

[halden.doerge]

I think the most interesting new production knife I’ve seen for this year so far is the Spyderco Paysan.

CRK Small Insingo
Seems boring compared to what all of you are considering.

 

[SpenceSTL]

That's not an easy question to answer. I can dream a lot bigger than I can afford.

Do-able Dream: WE Zeta or maybe a 604, possibly an Arcform Slimfoot
Kind of do-able but the wife would murder me Dream: Liong Mah's XV Folder or The Guillotine from Solid Steel Works
Out there Dream: One of David Freeman's Damascus\Timascus custom Tantos

Peace...

The LC200N model, with the yellow FRN handle. Since LC200N is corrosion proof, no coating needed, but I think it would look really good with the yellow anyway!

If I can snag a Spyderco Smock I'll be happy. There's a lot for me to love about that model.

 

[AF]

The new Reate Integral that was shown at IWA.

 

[SharpieB]

I think I am due for a CRK or Hinderer finally.

I have a bunch of amazing $100-200 knives but this would be my first $200+ knife purchase.

 

[b00n]

I second the Spyderco Paysan and the ZT 0462 which should arrive soon over here

 

[Korean Hog]

CRK Small Insingo

Naw man I'm right there with you, I've had my eye on of those for a while as well.

ZT 0392 factory custom
Totally love my 0393 but this one goes to a whole new level !

 

[TheFactor]

I’ve got a crk small insingo inkosi with natural micarta inlays that should be here any day . So might bump the ZT but it’s a tall order lol. Had a plain Jane and loved it .

 

[FOG2]

An MK Wharncliffe. I don't see the money being available tho.
