Whatcha got on order? (Traditional Knives Only)

I've wanted a MK2 / KA-BAR style knife ( whichever you choose to call it ) for a long time and when I came across a like new recent Ontario 498 on eBay for less than $40 shipped I went ahead and bought it.
I didn't realize they're only about $50 new or I would have probably just bought one already, but I did get a good deal for sure .
It's got the box and sheath not that the box really matters.
I don't really consider myself a collector but I'm not sure how much use it'll really get.
 
I have three Dexter Russell knives coming: the other 4 1/2” fish knife, 6” butcher knife, and 6” Traditional Sticking Knife, all to satisfy my curiosity.
 
Two forum knives. These will be my last purchases for some time - bought a new camera.
 
I pre-paid for a Forum 2019 #86. I have the Charlie #86 SFO , the bloodwood #86 SFO , and the Tidioute #86 oily creek bone on pre-order. I hope there will be some more #86s floating around in December. I hear the pull is about 6 on the #86s. I really like this #86 jack 2 blade run.
 
This one, that one and the last one are all on their way. Hoping they are all good ones.

I have an 86 in micarta reserved, and a forum knife, and I just bought another Laguiole en Aubrac which is headed my way. This is a bigger one than my first...
 
I just ordered a GEC 86 in micarta and I was thinking that that will be my one 86 for the run.
Then I remembered the forum knife is a 86.
Oh well.
 
2019 forum knife (obviously):Dand
I had a peek on ebuy yesterday for the first time in ages and jagged an antique green NACB #43 Oregon Trapper from some bloke in Queensland...badge and tube too....thinking about giving to one of my estranged Sons...he just finished High School...
 
I had to did it.

Just ordered a replacement Mora Number 1 to replace the one that walked away almost 3 generations ago.
(before my kids and grand kids happened makes 2 generations. I heard grand daughter got wedded this year, so the 3rd generation may not be and probably ain't far off.)

I "splurged" and got the carbon steel blade. :)
 
I got two #86 GEC Oil Field Oily Creek bone jacks and a GEC tube popper/blade pick on the way in the mail. I have an #86 Blade Forum African blackwood , an #86 SFO Bloodwood , and a Charley #86 Black jack on preorder. My Seth Borries "Karen" 6" black hammered harpoon clip fixed blade snakewood knife comes in tomorrow. November is a great knife month for me.

Wow! That is a great knife month. Enjoy!
 
Got the GEC SFO #86 in Bloodwood on order. Was hoping I could also get in on the CC SFO #86 but time will tell.
