What's your "next"?

I've really slowed down on my knife buying and trading over the last several months. I'm FINALLY starting to feel good about rounding out my collection with knives I like, aesthetically, AND like to carry/use.

As such, I've got a Benchmade Contego 810-1401 coming from Knifeworks. Also on the way is my first auto, since my state (IL) just legalized their carry....a fish scale Protech TR-3 in satin/pe.
 
Well, turns out this was my next:

"TAD Dauntless G&G Hawk Midtech Edition"

I knew it was coming but not so quickly and only managed to get one before they sold out because I was alerted by a fellow forumite.
 
Now I'm thinking about a Buck 119 special since I contacted Buck and was told I could get the right handed sheath swapped for a left handed one.
 
Always wanted a Rockstead and a Shirogorov. Got a Higo on the way, and since I also just got a Kershaw ET + ZT 0055 in the mail, I'm gonna wait a little while and grab either a Shiro 95T or 111
 
Would love a RS Higo X, but until I can come to grips with using just a $400 knife, another Hinderer XM is on the list...

Thought this topic already existed, but if it did, it appears to be long gone at this point. So, what is the next knife (or couple knives) on your list to purchase?

For me...

Traditional Folder: Lion Steel Barlow in m390
Modern Folder: Gayle Bradley (not sure if 1 or 2 yet...)
Fixed: Content at the moment...

No more.
I'm serious.

You know what I always say : To grip it you gots to get it.
Well I don't alway say that; to tell the truth, come to think of it, this is the first time.
But makes sense.
Right ? ! ?

You sit on a throne of lies! Haha
My next is an element 01 edc from JK knives! The pictures do this knife no justice. I was at a knifemaking class John hosted and fell in love with this model as soon as I held it.
 
Also ordered a Buck Custom Shop 501 in S30V and buffalo horn.
 
Something in 3V just trying to narrow down the choices. Looking hard at the Bradford lineup.
 
When my Sebenza finally comes back from warranty work it'll be like a brand new knife for me! (They haven't had it long, I just didn't get it for long before it needed a fix and I'm impatient!) But after that, I think I'll be fine for a little while. However a solid fixed blade and another Emerson will probably get on board at some point! Also, when Spyderco comes out with that comp lock flipper I may not be able to resist for long.
 
I just missed an amazing deal on a carbon fiber Sebenza Insingo, I was #2 in line = 1st loser :(

Now it's in my head. So not sure if I'll get the CF, but I want a CRK with Insingo blade. Just not sure which one.
 
Next one? Nothing on the radar this week. There are a couple I would like to handle though and that usually means I buy at least one of them. I have tried to slow down on knife buying. Last purchases were in April 2017. I'm just starting to see how pointless it is sometimes always looking for the next one. I'm pretty satisfied with what I already own. But I do like impulse buys.

Hope to attend Manufacturers Weekend at the big knife store in East TN in about a month. Believe there is a knife show also about that time too. So, more than likely,I won't be buying anything for about a month or so.
