You guys are killing me

You need to add a UKPK, Para2, Native(one of them), Chaparral, Sage 2 or 3, Manix 2, and the list goes on.

As I said in a previous post, I wouldn't mind the UKPK if it were slightly larger.
I have a PM2, but its going to my lady because it doesn't see any pocket-time with me
The Native seems a bit too small but with the choil on the blade it might be ok.
No interest in the Chaparral.
I might be interested in the Sage 1 to replace my beaten up Persistence one day.
Manix 2 is a toss-up. Could take it or leave it.

Not trying to knock the designs, or anyone's preferences. I just know what works for me.
 
Just a heads up Krazy Cash, I've got a very good condition Endura FFG ZDP for sale on the exchange forum. Just trying to help ya check it off your list ;-)
 
Haha I appreciate it Ninja. But if this purchase with Dave goes through for the ZT301 I may have to wait a bit before buying again.

I thought I had my knife short-list all worked out.
Couple benchmades, a few emersons, and eventually a CRK if I can afford to drop that sort of coin at the time and 1, (count it), one spyderco: Stretch.

After looking through the picture thread, reading topics on how everyone loves their new knife, the Spyderco section of my short-list is growing continuously.

Stretch VG10
Endura FFG ZDP
Caly 3.5
Chokwe
Sage 1
A serrated hawkbill model that I haven't decided on yet

The knife nut loves it but my wallet hates it.

been through several revisions of a must-have-list. my advice: get the high-ends right away. the folks here will tell you what they are. you don't have to tip-toe towards a military or a sage 2, or a m390 para2.
 
For small knives the UKPK, Native, and Chaparral fit really well in the hand and cut just as good if not better than their bigger brothers.
The Manix 2 is an excellent no-nonsense heavy use folder that works super well for light cutting as well but can take anything you throw at it.
The Sage 1 is short but wide. An Elegant looking gents knife. I prefer it's Titanium Twin, the Sage 2. The Sage 2 is super smooth, locks up solid, and just an excellent knife all around. I wish I had kept mine. The Sage 3 is the smoothest out of them all. Smooth opening and closing, it's just great. Plus, I really, really, really like the blue.
 
The only reservations I have about the Sage 2 is the slickness of the handle. Because it is a rather small knife my paws should wrap around it just fine. I've also heard the CF of the Sage1 can be pretty slick as well. And while the ball-lock of the Sage3 is interesting, I prefer a liner/framelock.

I suppose I should have led with what I own/have owned:
Delica saber/ffg (both gifted, too small)
Endura 4 saber (up for trade at the moment)
Tenacious (several)
Persistence
Para 2 (Had 2, gifted the first and soon the second)
Military: my Blackout

Not really interested in sprint runs or different colors/materials of the same knife. Not that kind of collector.
But the knives on my list have caught my eye and i'd like to try them out.
