What's On Your Current "I Want It!" List?

[chezuki]

The double post issue is out of control, and honestly, it’s making the forum less enjoyable.

You need BOTH

The 4 makes more sense, but the 5 seems like such a beast im more interested in it. In reality I'd have a hard time using a 100$+ knife as a hard-duty anything unless I really had to. I'll probably opt for the 4 first when the time comes.

I still want a 4 with the blade thickness of a 3.

Every once in a while I take my 5 out to the woods just to **** **** up. I’ve cut down 5” thick dead trees and split wood with that thing.

An ESEE 4 ground from 1/8" stock would be an awesome tool.

So now we need to guide you into understanding that $100 isn't that much for a knife. Think of it this way: if you own and use it for 20 years, you get great tool for $5 per year.

Also consider that an ESEE (and better knives) may cost a little more, but they're also more capable of being used hard and provide good service for many years.

3’s, 4’s, 5’s? Everyone KNOWS you need a 6, and attach it to your Junglas sheath! If you must have a 3, attach it to the 6’s sheath, and attach an Izula to the 3. 22lbs of ESEE goodness!

I haven't been huge into knives in the past. I've got a CRKT M16 blade I carry religiously, and its done well for me. For some reason I've found it easier to justify guns than knives, IDK why... I use my knife quite a bit, and I don't generally lose things, so it might be time for an upgrade!
My Karambit interest was recently sparked by watching youtube videos of Doug Marcaida, but that may need to be put on hold. ESEE makes some sexy looking knives, I could stare at their website all day.

If there was ever a glowing recommendation for a knife, this is it! Haha. Whether it is the best "fit" for me or not, I know I need one.

I really want a ZT0804CF.

I cannot afford a ZT0804CF.

So I saw this in the classy's. I pondered. I ignored. I said screw it...........ZT0121. nice little fixed blade built like a tank.

I have got to stop looking at these.

I want a Frontier Valley (LT Wright or Battlehorse, doesn't matter which), but ground from 3/32" stock instead of 1/8". My Frontier First (LT Wright) is just a little too thick at 1/8" for the size it is and it's utility.

Here is what a Frontier Valley & its li'l bro' the Frontier First look like:

My Bark River Mini Kephart is ground from 3/32" stock with a full convex grind and it is SWEET. The same thing with a Frontier Valley . . . oh, man. The pic is from the Knives Ship Free web site. Mine has natural Micarta and no liners with hollow pins.

I have been casually scanning the Knife section in the classy's. Some things of interest but cooler heads prevail.

CM, become a member of Blade Forums and peruse their classifieds. I'm just fortunate that I'm not quite sure of all the rules over there and haven't bought anything because of it.

Uh......."NO"..................

Good plan. Knife disease is worse than Black Rifle Disease.

Love to buy but can't justify a BRK Bravo-1. Already have two original Effingham Blackjack Trail Guide's, as well as a dozen other hunting specific knives.

OK so I screwed up and started browsing ZT's site.
0450CF is in Brads pile coming my way.
