Man, if I had the bucks, I'd try to buy a few titanium grip knives and Enduras/Delicas. maybe some Triad lock backs. I've been in the mood for lock backs latley
 
8x Case Russlock (5 clip point, 3 drop point)
4x Case Large Stockman
3x Case Sway Back Jack
3x Swamp Rat Ratmandu

No sign of slowdown on the Case front, few nice pieces coming out this year with plenty to catch up on.
 
Victorinox Safari Trooper
Victorinox Rambler (gray scales)
Victorinox Windsor

I have multiple variations of the Buck 110, so I guess that (sorta) qualifies.

I've gotten rid of my duplicate 'tactical' folders along the way and have scaled it back to about 8 or 9 solid users.

The SAKs are inexpensive and fun to collect, especially the discontinued stuff :)
 
For me to buy a duplicate of a knife I already own it has to qualify for a couple of aspects:

-limited edition/sprint run
-discontinued
-collectible in some way (prototype, interesting/rare defect)
-And I have to REALLY like it.

That being said, I have several variations of Spyderco Enduras, Benchmade AFCK's and Benchmade Barrages
 
i just bought a ka-bar dozier folder based on the reviews here last week, received it and then ordered 3 more and shipped them to buddies in afghanistan ...sure it's no combat knife but i'm sure it'll be appreciated!
 
5 Delicas. 3 are FFGs.
3 Kabar Doziers. I bought a lot off a forum somewhere. All different colors.

Honestly, the Delica is all I need. It's perfect. (Btw, 3" blade limit here in MI).
 
I have two of Ml knive's Hudson Bay knives, one in 3/16 and the other in 1/8 blade thickness. I like the lighter one for light camp chores and the heavier one for more heavy duty stuff, like cleaning my finger nails.....yuck, how dirty could they be? You do not want to know.

LOL, I could probably think of worse
 
I have few multiples, many of the are exact copies, just back-ups

10 Five Dodos: Black, blue, CF and two orange
probably something else
 
Hinderers, a couple of dupes. CRK Sebenzas, Mnandis, Umnumzaans. Lionsteel SR-1's.
 
4 Para2's
4 Military's
5 Enduras
2 Rat-7's
3 Team Gemini's

The only true dups are two ATS-55 Endura3's, the rest are variations.
 
I have owned 6 Cold Steel srks since they were released I currently have 2 left.
They last along time ,perform excellent and if it gets lost or given away it isn't a great deal out of pocket.
I have 4 blurs,5 kudu's 2 Manix xl's originals and numerous others.
 
Hmmm...let's see.

2 x Spyderco Ocelot
4 x Spyderco Native
2 x Spyderco Volpe
2 x Spyderco Police
2 x Spyderco Military
2 x Spyderco Para-Military
3 x New Manix
2 x Cold Steel Kudu
2 x Cold Steel Medium Voyager (VG-1)
3 x Emerson A-100
12 x Buck 110 (Some Custom and some not.)

That is all I can think of atm.
 
Victorinox Bantams and small Tinkers. I don't like the red Bantam so much, but I love my Alox one and have a fresh one stored away. I tend to trash a small Tinker working at the beach every summer so I buy a few at a time. I think I'll use my red Bantam this summer. Nice knife, has the toothpick and tweezers, ring,... the Alox just has a snappier lockup.
 
I have many:

*SanRenMu 710. It's a great gift for friends. Good value knife, although a copy of a CRK Small Sebenza (patent has had it's run though).

*SanRenMu 939. It's an awesome knife. Good steel and not a copy of anything. This thing is an awesome deal!

*Mora knives. They're like Bic pens here in Sweden. They're cheaper in price than they are worth IRL. Many modern, overrecycling-PETA-GreenPeace-communistish-outdoors-people in Sweden ridicule others who buy anything more expensive than a Mora -- unless you're supporting the Sami people (who claim like a third of Sweden btw); because they feel a Mora will handle any reasonable task a knife is supposed to.

So you get a few. They're like condoms. You buy some cheap ones in bulk to have laying around for those unplanned events; and, spend your hard-earned on those luxurious ones for that special occasion when you really wanna enjoy the moment.

I have more than one Mora laying around wherever one is needed (toolshed, on the boat etc.). The grind is usually a bit too acute for the steels they use in terms of edge retention; but, it is easily fixed.

*Tramontina and Imacasa machetes. Excellent, cheap choppers. Got a lot of them to give away as gifts, experiment with grinds etc.
