So, thanks to NCCNC's recent thread http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php/1054725-The-KAI-bug, I've decided to unveil my growing collection and ask all of you KAI fans which models are a "must have" for any KAI collector.

Here's my little accumulation of KAI pointy things :D
p.s. I have a ZT 0700 on the way also...

You need you a Random Task II in that collection! One of my all-time Kershaw fav's.

Oddly enough, I've seen them several places for around 45.00 lately. Buy one and take out the torsion bar. The thumb studs are too small for safe deployment IMO. My thumb always ended up behind the blade (my RT wasnt as smooth as some of my others).

Edit -

How about a Random Leek and a Tanto Blur? Two of my favorite kershaw's.

junkyyard dog 2 is a must have, also you should get a 0200.

I'm looking at a JYD2CB right now and I keep putting off picking up a 0200 even though I really want one!

Ha ha, I knew the TiLT would be brought up eventually. I'd love to snag one but I don't have that kind of $$ right now. If a ZT 0302 and a TiLT came up for sale at the same time, I honestly don't know which one I would pick

Those purple tanto blurs are sexy... I was checkin' 'em out last night.

As long as you don't pry with the tip, the tanto blur is good to go. It's actually my favorite Kershaw. Super sharp - Almost as sharp as the Ripcord. Very usable too, though if I bought one of the purps, it would go in the gun safe lol.
 
You need a Random Task I, a Tyrade, an S110 Shallot, a Ricochet, and a Titanium Bump.
 
What about a Rake? Any Kershaw with a composite blade would be a nice addition. I see your cb Leek, I love mine it is my only Leek.
 
I know SO would say something orange. Skyline (fixed also), OD-1, Packrat, Zing, Leek, just to name a few.

Oooohhhh. RTI will be hard to find. I like the G10 over the smooth surface. It's been years since Ive even held one, I can't remember what the opening was like. The RTII had troubles with opening until I took the torsion bar out - Oh well, I like it a lot now. The scales on the RTII are close to perfect - love em!

Nonetheless, the Random Task is a Kershaw staple. Hope they bring it back again with bigger studs!
 
I would grab a damascus leek while they're still around for a relatively decent price.
