Your 2011 Blade-ticipations?

I'm anxiously waiting for a custom from Andrew Demko. Should be done in the first quarter of 2011.
 
Not a production knife, or even a complete knife, but some time in 2011 I'll have a Ti framelock, bolster, and carbon fiber scale on my Emerson CQC 11.
 
im pretty jazzed about spyderco`s 2011 offerings, in particular the sage3 and manix2 clear. native5 g-10, fluted military ti , a few others. also interested in the hest folder and am looking around as others catch my interest.

I've spent the past several years buying various production knives, and only a couple of customs.

In 2011, I plan to spend a lot more time in the Makers' forums. There's a lot of talent there, and I'm amazed how little a good custom fixed blade runs.

BF has a nice "stable" of makers so to speak, Fiddleback and NWA knives immediately come into mind. Regulars like Rick Marchand and Ray Laconico also frequent W&SS.

If you're into Filipino blades, head over to the Asian sub-forum:thumbup:

Yeah baby! That too! The FINEST evolution of the Native exactly without the features I didn't like!

Once I overcome my depression brought on by the probability of another year without the TUFF, I'll probably get something with a triad lock, if they offer it on something with some tip strength, and maybe a hest folder or izula folder, or the next Hinderer ZT collaboration...
 
Lookin forward to seein' what Helle and Les Stroud come up with.
Going to pick up a Fallkniven F1 for 2011 in the meantime.

The new year is just around the corner! What new or up-and-coming models are you hankering to have for 2011?

Me? CS's Tri-Ad offerings have been given so much praise these past two years, even I was impressed. I was seriously wanting the Recon's except for one detail, the ergo's. While they do look indeed useful and comfy, they look like they "locked" your grip/fingers with those two finger scallops (intended for the index and middle fingers).

Then I heard that the Voyager's were being given the Tri-Ad upgrade. I was really glad I didn't jump the gun with the Recons. They're featured below -

Same here, I think the 2010 Recon 1 is a great knife, I got one and am very happy with it, I've also been wanting a Voyager Vaquero very bad but for some reason they canceled the new design, I really hope they will put it in the 2011 productions. If htey do I'll get the fully serrated for sure!
