I'm thinking about ordering a Delica 4, SAK Tinker and Benchmade 940 soon. I am saving until I have enough to get them all in one fell swoop. What are you guys eyeballing?
 
4 max. Can't decide wether to by it or an avet 2 speed fishing reel. Can afford both but I'm weird about spending disposable cash. Have to justify it somehow. Half the fun is kicking ideas around anyhow.
 
The wish list is always quite long... ;) Not likely to buy most of these anytime soon (hobby budget is already bigger than it probably should be), but always on the lookout. Some that come to mind (in no particular order):

ZT 0777 - original damascus composite blade version preferred, but any would be great (if they hit a price I'd be willing to spend)

ZT 0500 and G&G Hawk MUDD - after having played with the midtech MUDD's at Blade, I'm really liking this design

ZT 0650 - having gotten a chance to briefly play with one, I like the feel and the opening/locking mechanism on this a lot

Benchmade 556-1 - I liked the G10 large Grips they did for various dealers (eg. REI one), and interested to see this update to one of my favorite Benchmades

Benchmade 940-2 - looks like a great update to another one of my favorite Benchmades

CRK Small Sebenza Insingo w/ Micarta Inserts & dual blue thumb studs - I like the plain handled one, but I think the micarta would add a bit more depth and grip

Kershaw Launch 5 - the Launch series are pretty awesome, and this may be as close as I get to the auto-Commander for a while

Kershaw Barge - the built in prybar seems both gimmicky and ingenious - could make for a good replacement loaner/beater

Victorinox Pioneer X - scissors are one of my more frequently used implements on the SAKs, and they weren't in any of the Alox models

And, of course, the yet-to-be-released ZT limited edition pieces -- 0427, 0999, and 0606.
 
Looking at Bark River Kephart 3V and LT Wright Maverick Scout. Can decide which one to get.
 
Way too many things
Folders: Olamic Wayfarer 247, Sebenza 21, Dauntless MK4

Fixed: BHK Highlander, Gough Resolute
 
Im always looking at Emerson knives. I dont think i can have enough. Bark river fixed blades have been on my mind latley too. One of the small ones
 
I have started to look more carefully at Benchmade knives in general as I always seemed to ignore them. I picked up my first this past Monday.

Been looking at a Bark River Snowy River and the Blackjack neck knife as additions to my fixed blade accumulation.
 
I have started to shy away from folders since I have too many. Lately I have been on the hunt for a fixed blade which would be great for wet climates that I travel to many times a year.
 
i was looking at and ordered a rike knives 1507t

Its my first flipper in a long time and my first one with bearings......which has me looking at the zt0900 and ag russel gentlemans knife

been looking at a boker ww1 german trench knife and ill get around to ordering it here in the next week or so
 
I've been looking at a new stone probably just go to dollar tree for replacement one but i've been looking. Hard to justify 15 dollars when one dollar worked so well and only reason to replace is brother decided to use it and did nothing but carve the corners off. Also been looking at straight razors

I am on a focused Emerson kick right now and have a few more to get, after having picked up four of them in the past week.

Purchased already: A100, Vindicator, Gypsy Jack, and just now, a beautiful Jungle Commander from the Exchange.
On the List: Patriot, large Bulldog, Sheepdog (in spearpoint, please!), and a CQC-15.
Pie-in-the-sky fantasy scenerio: a Persian

I am working on downsizing my collection in order to make room. :D
 
Nothing. I have all the knives I want or need for now. It's been this way for a couple of weeks. I check the exchange forums everyday.
 
I have a Spyderco Techno coming in, but I've also been wanting:
ZT 0561, benchmade 940, spyderco Yojimbo 2, spyderco chapparal, ZT 0770, Benchmade north fork, and I've always wanted a hinderer. Maybe XM24
 
I was looking at the new release of the PM2 in cpm-m4. But I have one, or two, so I'm fine.
