What knives are you guys looking at?

Titanium kizer gemini, kyre, or roach. I already own the vanguard versions of these and trying to decide which one I want to buy in the ti version
 
I have been eyeballing a few smaller knives:

Boker Plus Exskelibur I Titanium Handles
ADV Mini Butcher
Boker Plus Pelican
CRKT Jettison (large and small)
DPX HEAT in shred CF
Curtiss knives ODT flipper
 
Spyderco Military.

Love Spyderco but never owned a Millie before. And I am torn. On one hand, I wouldn't mind a titanium model; the fluted ti would go nicely with my Native 5. But then I'm thinking that the G-10 liner lock is more... true(?).. to the design and intent of the Military. I could get a DLC coated blade that would match my PM2. But then there's that blue S110V sprint that looks tasty...

Decisions, decisions... :confused::confused::confused:

I am eyeing up the Emerson Sheepdog spearpoint. Never owned an emerson and it looks interesting to me.
 
Got a few nice things so far but now I gotta look at some Spyderco stuff. I thought the Endura looked good but the Manix has also grown on me. Decisions...
 
I've been looking at a BM Mini custom Mini Grip with G10 handles, a ZT 0452cf, and a BM Foray. Decisions, decisions..
 
I'm hoping to find one of the limited edition Emerson Patriots with the wood scale.
Beautiful knife and understandably difficult to find.

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

Heh, an update on this response from me back in July. I DID end up with a CQC-15...and that Persian!!!

The others are still targets of opportunity!
 
I'm currently looking at some higher end ti frame lock non-flippers.

Just got another Redencion 228 but this one was a disappointment (ti scales were two different shades). So I sold it.

I may get another one and hope the last one was just a fluke. Im also looking at Chris Reeve offerings even though they don't really do much for me thus far.

And I'm starting to look at customs but can't seem to find many non-flipper ti frame locks under $600 that catch my eye. Maybe I'm not looking in the right spots. Crusaders are sold out everywhere. I may try a Grayman.

Nothing particular. Not so interested in new models of 2017 from major knives companies nor customs. Maybe will acquire one or two ZT LE like 0392 and 0606 and Benchmade gold class like 710-141/2/3.
 
Some Spyderco Cru, not exactly sure yet.

Starting to kick around the idea of buying my first $mid range$ fixed blade.

You could look at Jim Harrison and Seamus knives, I had one of his Uber's and their fantastic knives.
I believe there's one for sale in the cove on USN in your price range.

I'll look into those right now. Thanks.
 
I am still quite happy with Spydiechef, but guess it doesn’t cost any just to look at others.

I couldn't agree more!! I LOVE Jim's work, and currently own 2. The one's on the USN are awesome. I wish I could have snapped them up.
Here are my 2, if that helps you:
