My focus is on the RAT Junglas.I usually don't plan on many knife purchases,they just happen.Like today,I went to buy some jeans and came home with 2 new Vics,an Alox Soldier,and an Alox Farmer.The mens clothing store in town carries alot of Victorinox knives & mtools.Hey,I bought 1 pair of jeans anyway.The Junglas I'm planning for!
I plan on getting a Spyderco Sage I Carbon Fiber model. Why this knife? Because it is a smallish EDC at 3 inches, I like liner locks, the flat ground CPMS30V blade, and the wire clip.
It will make carrying this daily a lot more discreet.
I wont get all of these either but heres my wish list:
First off I have a ZT 301 en route to my house as we speak.
CPM M4 RSK Ritter grip on preorder waiting another month for that.
Small regular double lug sebbie
If the ZT 301 doesnt float my boat I think I'll sell it and get a Strider SNG
Spyderco manix 2
Izula
Izula folder
Rat RC 3
Spyderco stretch 2 CF zdp
BRKT Bravo 1
.....................
Thats whats on my list as of right now.
Spyderco Gayle Bradley on it's way, probably another Dozier if he's at the Vegas show and now I'm going to have to check out that RSK in M4. Other than that, who knows- I'm probbably going to have to start selling if I want to keep buying!
The resurgence of frame/liner locks has really put a damper on my purchases. I generally buy Spyderco knives but almost all their new models are frame/liner locks and I haven't seen anything else interesting from my other preferred brands.
So far it's just a Spyderco Ti /G10 & M4 Military,a RAT4 & a couple of CRK's(Mnandi & a damascus Sebenza w/inlays)
I've got my eye on a few different makers for my first custom folder,just figuring out availabilty,price...etc.Here are a couple makers I'm definately getting a knife from at least one of them,if all goes well.Todd Begg-Kirby Lambert-Grant & Gavin Hawk.
There's more of course,but these three are at the top of my list.When I say my list,I mean that as an affordable list.There are plenty of other makers I would love to own one of their knives...Snody,Hinderer,Onion come to mind.Those guys are on fire now!I really can't see myself getting anything from them in the near future,just too expensive..I got bills mang!
For folders, I went overboard last year - probably time to listen to Cheryl Crowe - again - "It's not having what you want - but wanting what you have...".
FB's, another matter. I only bought one last year - and what a 'one' - an RC-5! Maybe this year it'll be time for another BRK&T - or an RC-4 from KSF in a decent leather sheath. Maybe that Izuzla, too. If absolutely nothing, I'll still feel quite blessed - fortunate.
