What knife do you continue to put off buying?

Strider SNG. Since everyone on this forum seems to either love or hate Striders, I want to actually handel one and decide for myself if I like it before buying one.
 
I sold mine. I want a tanto SMF.
 
A Benchmade 530.

I really want one because it seems really light and I like the blade shape and material... but I can't find one used and am a tightwad.
 
Scrapyard Scapper 5 LE (INFI), Fallkniven S1, Bark River Bravo 1, and/or Kershaw Outcast. Why? Because I have spent about $300 on knives in the last couple months. May not sound like a lot to some of you, but remember I'm still a bit of a newbie.
 
I've been meaning to buy a Spyderco Ocelot for years and just never get around to it.
 
For me, it's the Spyderco Delica. I really want one, as I'm sure it would easily become my favorite knife. Problem is, I know that Spyderco is coming out with a FFG version in the near future (hopefully). I just have to sit and wait until then. :)
 
One I kept putting off buying was the CRK&T Hisshou, but I just decided about an hour ago to go with it. Had a thread on it and it seemed to get some good reviews so I said "what the heck" and went for it!
 
I want a CRK&T Hisshou as well.
 
Strider SMF...way too expensive and like another poster said, for that price I'd like to handle one first

Busse FFBM...my SY Dog Father is way too much bang for the buck to justify a FFBM

Spyderco Leaf Storm. I haven't been able to handle one
and am a bit worried it will be too small for my liking.

I found a comparison pic with the Caly 3 somewhere. It is small. If the Caly 3 is about as small as you'd want to carry, the Leafstorm is probably too small.
On the other hand if you're looking for the sweetest little high tech folding knife, and are already a fan of Kevin Wilkins design, then it's a bargain.

Sebenza, just can't afford 1 yet.:(

For someone who's been around here for so long, I have a hard time believing that.
Are there gremlins that take the money out of your "Sebenza fund" jar every night?:confused::)

Tanto Umnumzaan, I still hope it will be available with an S35VN blade some day...

Either Crucible disappears completely, in which case CRK will run out of S30V eventually, and have to switch to something else. Or someone rescues the cutlery steel division, in which case they will stop making S30V, eventually.
 
A Bagwell Helle's Belle.

I really admire that maker and love that design. But the commitment (not to say the $$) required has kept me quiet.

At least, till now.
 
Manix 2, BM Ritter RSK1 and BM 710 (not sure I'm going to like the 710). Other knives on my list keep showing up on the Exchange or Ebay for good prices.. so have to jump right?
