Whatcha got on order? (Traditional Knives Only)

I've gotten a few new Buck Boone & Crockett LE's and decided to take the plunge on a Custom Shop 501 with S30V and buffalo horn handles. I won't see it until the new year so it will be the first of 2014 :thumbup:
 
A GEC #15, single clip blade and ivory bone covers, should be here around Christmas, thanks Chris (CJZ). :thumbup: :D
 
I have a Northwoods Forest Jack coming in with matching Sambar Stag scales, not easy to get! GunstockJack hooked me up! Check him out. Wish I had a pic of it but you'll see it come Friday.:glee:
 
I've put away all my "tactical cool" knives from Spyderco, ESEE Zancudo, etc, and ordered a Case Mini Copperlock in amber bone, and a white SparXX delryn model. I'm wondering if I should also order the Harley Davidson mini Copperlock in black?
 
Novelty Colonial brand knife, described as likely from the late 1960's/early 1970's. New/old stock that will likely have some green tarnish on the automobile shaped handle, so a bit of cleaning will likely be needed. At $10 total for the item and it's shipping, I won't exacty be too hurt if this gadget is not for me, but hope for it to clean up well enough to add it to the collection (leg knives I have, but not car knives, lol!) :)

Very cool! :)
 
In the past year? nothing, last knife was 2012 BF knife...probably the last for a good while! not by choice either, paying med bills lol
 
I just placed an order for a GEC #15 Radio knife in antique yellow jigged bone. Would have preferred the red bone but couldn't find one. I've been waiting for a pattern like this from GEC and had to jump on it :)
 
I love me some cheap* knives! Got a Schrade USA 104OT and a Camillus TL-29 from a confiscated-items auction and my first carbon-steel Opinel (the tiny #3) on the way.

* "Cheap" as in inexpensive. My grandpa would always ask rhetorically, "Is that cheap or is that thrifty?" When my uncle joined the family, he brought with him the rejoinder, "Neither--it's good stewardship!"
 
I succumbed to a thread here and got me a Fallkniven Gentleman's Pocket Knife, an interesting mix of traditional and modern features. The build quality is superb and boy did it come sharp! It bit me when I got it out to show my brother-in-law yesterday. He's a hobbyist blacksmith and was curious about the laminated blade steel.

We have a nice thread on Whatcha Totin' ?
since I have an inbound beauty, I thought I'd start one on
Whatcha got on Order? :)

And mine is a pretty sleek looking Great Eastern Cutlery folder
Model #12 a Northfield folder called a Powder Horn with burnt stag scales,
they make a similar one that's called a Toothpick, with just one blade,
the Powder Horn has two blades and the main blade's profile, to me,
is a pretty nice looking clip point blade.

HOPEFULLY this will land here this week, as I travel again next Tuesday
to a small town called Argos IN, I hear tell there ain't a lot around that
part of the state, small town.

ONCE I have mine in hand, I'll update the Whatcha Totin'? thread ;)

My buddy emailed me last week and told me he found 2 of these in almost like new shape. He was keeping one for his ALOX collection and he was saving the other one for me. :D

This friend has been instrumental in helping me rebuild my SAK collection after the fire....I can never fully repay him for his patience and kindness!!!

So, I will soon have a Victorinox 93mm ALOX Solo on the way! :)

This will complement my more recent SAK silver Solo. A 93mm ALOX Solo is like a Pioneer but with only a single blade and no keyring....very thin and very sturdy. This one is an example of the later run of Red Solos and has the Vic SSR tangstamp.

That is a great score! :thumbup:

Yes, I am very blessed to have such good friends!!! I hope to post it and some other ALOX soon! Maybe I'll get a new camera for Christmas (due to illness in the family, still waiting for my DD and grand children....I think Sunday is the day we are going to get together)!
