Relaced them with?

Parted with: Microtech UMS, Protech TR3 (Green handle), Emerson A100, Emerson CQC7A, Emerson CQC-10, Hogue EX-01, and all my Benchmade autos.

Replaced them with: Kershaw Burst, Bradley Alias II, Protech TR3 (Black handle), Piranha Bodyguard, and soon to get Protech TR2, Protech TR3 X-1, Bradley Alias I.
 
The only knives I've gotten rid of this year were some discontinued Wenger SAKs that I traded for a nice Case. No, I don't miss them because they were surplus and I still have more. Haven't replaced them with anything.
 
I was on a trading frenzy for a while, and parted with more knives than I can remember -- a number of them fixed blades for which I really had no use. But my only regrets were a Benchmade 940 (since replaced -- which has started a whole different Benchmade acquisition frenzy) and a Cold Steel Recon 1 Tanto, which I plan to replace sometime soon.
 
Hi Wunderbar -

I gave away several knives to friends - Some Bucks, a couple of Case knives.

I sold a Busse DSSF and a Kershaw Speedform 3500.

I bought several, a few JK Handmades, a Case Swayback Jack, three GEC's, a Kershaw Tilt, a couple Crowns, a few Victorinox, and a couple of Benchmades.

Some of the above purchases were gifts.

I have a few I plan on selling very soon - probably early next year, to fund further purchases.

best regards -
