Hopefully you won't say Mad Dog, as that seems to be all I read about lately. Maybe we should change the name of Blade Forums to Mad Dog Forums.

Anyway, I am anxiously awaiting my Dozier Pro Guides Knife from AG Russell any day now, and will do a review on the proper forum after it arrives.


I woul like to get a large fixed blade such as a Basic #9 and another Spyderco to add to my collection such as an Endura or Calypso.

What's next for you?
 
I put a downpayment a week ago for a medium lefty Darrel Ralph Apogee. Can't wait to get it. I got to handle the Apogee at the New York Custom Knife show. Very sweet design and action.

A Mad Dog ATAK!

Seriously. I like the knife as a fighter.

My pocket is hurting a little after the NYCK show but right after xmas there will be a William henry spearpoint with red bone scales in my life. Got to actually touch one at the show. Beautiful little gent knife. Oh and a sog powerlock.

My next purchase is either a Ka-Bar or an Ontario Spec Plus SP2.

After that, a Robeson Pocketeze 2-1/2 inch penknife.

Then a . . .
 
A great big LEFTY SEBENZA!!!

Greg-I'm looking forward to your review on the Dozier, as mine arrived a couple weeks ago and I'll be taking it out hunting next week!! I love it! Anyway, back to the topic:
I am currently waiting for a Lynn Griffith Large Hunter and a Blackwood Small Game. Both should arrive sometime in December. After that, I am going to concentrate on matching the the Large Hunter with a Griffith Hunter (the smaller one) and the Small Game with a Blackwood Small Hunter (with Black Ashe burl handle to match the Small Game). After THAT, I'd like to get a pair of Wayne Hendrix drop points. Too much planning?
 
I have had a small decorated Sebenza on order for some time that I hope to recieve before the end of the month.

A Kershaw/Onion mini-task(1500) to replace the one that hopped out of my pocket somewhere. I loved that funky little 'utility'- gotta replace it.
I am waiting on a Bailey Bradshaw small KD with ivory and engraving, 52100 blade
and a Gene Osborn CenterCross lockback with silver wire inlay.
Both any day now.
 
My next knife is on it's way. I was lucky enough to get a Kershaw mini-task lefty from knifecenter.com. I can't wait for it to arrive.

It's a toss up between a CS Bush Ranger and a CS Recon Tanto. Yeah, I know they're in different classes but the Recon Tanto I can get is priced well.

I too would LOVE to have a Sebenza someday, but I would be afraid from what I've read, that I would throw all of my other folders in a drawer and never want to carry anything else. Maybe one of these days.
 
Well, I wish I had deep enough pockets for some of the purchases I see listed.

At this point, I'm looking at getting one of the Kershaw Onion collaborations. Maybe a black-out first, to see if I can put up with owning a liner lock (hate them, hate them!!!!), followed by a random task.
Beyond that...
I just can't wait for the new BM bali songs to come out. I'm just itching for a pair of the high end ones, so I can call myself Clay Jr. and slice myself to kingdome come!

A Marble's Fieldcraft. Sent nearly a month ago, probably languishing while Canadian Customs guys play with it for week or three. With luck it'll arrive before deer season ends.
 
chizpuf,
You didn't ask for my advice but here goes;
save up for a Kershaw/Onion Ricochet if you like the size/style of the blackout. At least that way you get the way better 440v blade.
They are both kinda large for my pocket. That mini task is a great little knife.
PS. Not all liner locks are created equal.
I've got a Larry Chew custom liner lock with a fantastic precise fit and lockup, and a large Wegner that I have total confidence in.

Luckily I've got most of what I want.
Everything else is to experience materials, quality, etc.

Might get another Spyderco Moran or TOPS Street Scalpel. I'd like to try a Livesay Little Pecker, a standard Delica, Police, Military, La Griffe, Neck Jaws, the Al Mar Cigar Cutter, the entire Crawford Neck Knife line, and the Martin Beanie Ball.

Most likely next purchase would be an HI Villager Khukri.

Hopefully I could convince a custom maker to make me a small 3" OA CPM 440V neck knife.

 
A Johnny Stout "dress" Gemini with stag handles. Wife knows about it so its the last one for a long, long time. At least I'm going out in style. Oops, got one coming from Mr. Mayo soon too, man my wife is going to kill me!!

My next purchase to be is the Greg lightfoot
C-4 Tanto. I have been eyeing this puppy for a while now. It looks really cool!

A dress gemini with stag Handles !!! Man that is certainly going out with style and worth a few nights on the couch if that is what it takes.
