Thanks for the welcome as well as the heads-up Senorsquare. I will definitely wait until 2014 then if that is the case. I am new to the knife forums but I am willing to bet that BBS would be Bento Box Store. I think that I can wait until next year - I am already planning on purchasing the following this year and that should be about all that I am willing to spend on this hobby for this year (I also have other hobbies that cost $$$).
1 - CF Native 5 (x1)
2 - Forum Native 5 (x2)
3 - CF Manix2XL S90V (not ready for pre-order yet at Knifeworks)
4 - Southfork
In any case - I think that numbers 1-4 add up to somewhere between $900-1000 so I think that will be my limit for my knife budget for this year. I also like flashlights

and my next purchase on that front will set me back a few bucks too (Fenix RC40)
Thank you for the welcome as well BAL - your post on the "shared" knife a la the video post analogy made me laugh and then think to myself....."but, but.... I really want to fondle my knife in private and I don't think that I could ever be into a group fondling session" although "not that there's anything wrong with that" (as Jerry Seinfeld would say).
Thanks for the photo of your Para-Military's Holland - a beautiful sight if I ever saw one! I'm really looking forward to picking up the Spyderco's I've mentioned (for this year) and then next year start off my wish list with the Blue PM when it's reintroduced.
