...besides Beckers? I've picked up several over the last 5-6 months.

I'll start with the Beckers of course. I recently picked up a new BK7 (with Remora) because I didn't have the Ka-Bar version yet. I also snagged up the BK14, because I'm giving my Izula to the Mrs.:

Here's a few Spydies I nabbed at the "outlet" in Golden, Co. A Manix-2, and a Persistance:

Here is a David Farmer drop point (with Bamboo scales), and a Bill Akers "hunter" (Black Ash Burl scales):

My most recent purchase was a Fiddleback Forge 14" machete. I really wanted Osage scales, but the natural micarta was all that was available in this size:

My pictures suck, because I'm a crappy photographer. But I promise I'm working on that! :o So what have ya'll picked up lately? Like within the last 6 months or so?
 
I haven't bought many knives the last few months, 3 ESKabars, 2BK11's, 3 BK2's, 2 BK7's, an Reinhardt Becker Kukri, that's all I bought. But, that's not all.

I got an ESEE5, TOPS XCEST, few Moras, couple of Kershaws, a FBF 12" machete, Tramontina 18" bush 'chete, and a Case Stockman.

All that since Dec 1. I need to get some more stuff, non knife related, some outdoor clothes, some boots, and I do want a new ENO doublenest. Don't need it, hence the want.

Funny thing, most of the stuff I got, will wind up being given away, here on the forums, to local guys, and family. I'm keeping the ESEE5, I like to lock my BK2 and the ESEE5 in a cage and watch them fight. No winners, only one loser, the cage.

I picked up a Case Stockman with yellow Delrin handles. Very nice, but the Case Canoe I got for Christmas has been getting the most pocket time. I'm loving getting into traditional folders much more than I ever did modern tactical folders.

Condor Hudson Bay Knife
BHK Bushcrafter
(2)BHK Frontier Valley Patch knives

pondering... bought some gear, but i think the last thing i bought was the BK5 when it came out, and a couple Eskabars with it?

oh, right, a couple ceramic knives from harbor freight, cheap fun.

eyeballing a few, but haven't pulled any triggers yet.

just nothing new or exciting enough i guess.
 
Hmmm, let me think for a moment...... FFG Endura in bright green, Johnson Potbelly, BK-14 and BK-5. Waiting for a CS Mag Kukri machete and CS Rajah 2 to arrive.
 
Since the beginning of 2010 I bought a JAB Piggyback, Old Timer Minuteman, BK14, BK2 and a TOPS ALRT in that order. I'm done for awhile. Wife wants a 47" tv.

Well, I didn't buy them, but they were bought for me at my request....does that count?

Buck Vantage Pro Large -- VERY nice! S30V blade, and G10 handles.
ESEE 4 -- VERY nice as well.

well obviously some of you guys are freaking loaded.

I was thinking the same thing, but it seems that there are a good number of established single guys around here....I remember those days...$800 for a catback exhaust on my car, no problem! Couple hundred here or there--not a second thought. Since I got married and had 2 kids...not so many toys anymore. But the kids are totally worth it...:p
