Your last knife of 2016?

My last knife is actually 4 that were gifted to me and received on Christmas. I don't anticipate anymore for 2016...

My wife gave me a small inkosi for Christmas. It replaced a small micarta sabenza 21 as my daily carry (this month at least.)

Can't get much later in the year than a delivery on New Years Eve. Wanted of these for a while and finally pulled the trigger. Little belated Christmas gift to myself. Benchmade 531BK.

Fresh out of the post office, bought them for myself Christmas Day after a little alcohol induced last minute shopping. Grayman Suenami 5" and a Benchmade Bone Collector skinning knife.
 
My shirogorov was my last knife purchase of '16. I got it back in June. I didn't get a whole lot of knives this year, but I still enjoyed them and Blade forums.

The sebbie was purchased last year, just got the sheath and lanyard for it this year.

Lost a copper investigator so I just replaced it with a Ti-Bolt (few days ago).

Hopefully I will be able to buy some new knives in 2017.

Good choice! My last knife purchase of the year was the same model (but the cheaper grivory handled version):

Walked into a knife shop yesterday with no intention of looking at, let alone buying, a Benchmade, but the owner persuaded me. He's been carrying a 530 for years and it's his absolute favorite knife.
 
Last knife from the exchange is a Spyderco GB1 with milled liners.
Last knife from a vendor are two S35VN sprint Boker Urban Trappers, arrived tonight.

Bad part about mass drop is that they were ordered in august and I had to wait til now to get them. Due to my impatience, I picked up a VG-10 model to see how I liked it, but unfortunately it was too slim for my hands. So we will see what the future holds for these...

Great little knife--I have two of them. The 530 and the titanium Eros are both so thin and light that they make great workout knives. Even running they're so light you don't even notice they're in your pocket.

My last knife of 2016 changed today, when my new Kizer Guru arrived (bottom knife pictured):

One of those is waiting for me back at the office (I didn't go in Friday). I went with the thumb stud version (with holes) for a change of pace. If I like it as much as I think I will, then a micarta scale will probably be in its future.
 
Fantastic Ted!
Hope your doing good. How was the Holidays?

I actually prefer the grivory handle material to the g10. I really like the grind on the 531 though.

You should buy that shop owner a fruit basket for doing you such a kindness.
