Are you done with 2019, Spydie wise? What do you wish for in 2020?

[Sumdumguy]

Only thing I’ll jump on this year is the CQI Caribbean expected before the new year.

wait... what?!

They are updating something with the liners.

I can't imagine what needs to be CQI'd. Are they finishing them to a higher grit or what?

Not sure, that’s all Spyderco would share with me. Maybe someone who is better connected can find out a bit more...cough...Sal!

I will buy more knives if I think they will please me. This year I’ve sold on as much stuff as I’ve acquired, which helps with the indigestion!

Brouwer on order currently - the European spear point blade appeals, and it should fit my xl hands.

I almost bought a Lil Native to bling up with Ti scales, but decided to wait for the

LIL’ NATIVE SLIPJOINT

Yes, I’d really like a

LIL’ NATIVE SLIPJOINT!!

I thought I was done but it looks like I need to grab a respect before the increase of 2020.

[Bloke]

Near done with knives altogether and seriously wondering how many knives are enough? If I lived for half a dozen lifetimes, used the ones I have, I reckon I'd still have knives left over. :rolleyes:

You know, this rings awfully close to my thinking. If I stayed off this forum, I would probably never buy another knife, and then find myself wondering why I have all that I do have.

So I neither need nor want anything more. I started 2019 hoping for some Shaman sprints and/or exclusives and I got my wish, now I am going into 2020 without any such itches or longings.

The recent K390 Paramilitary was the surprise knife to end the year for me. I had neither expected nor dreamed of such a thing, but couldn't pass it up.

2020 ought to be the year to make nice knives of these mule blades I have.

Sometimes I wish the mule blade shape was the bow river shape. I could get excited about making a bunch of Bow Rivers in various steels!

Same, done to a M4 fixed blade drops OR the Aussie $$ improves a lot.......

I’ve been a little unenthused of late. I have more knives than you could poke a stick at and the ones I actually use I can count on one hand.

I think I buy knives for the sake of buying them. I use them for a bit, most often sharpen them, sometimes just for the sake of it, forget about them and then buy another one and the cycle repeats itself.

I have flash you beauty knives of Super Steels, and God know what fancy scales and I’m getting around with a “plastic” handled, H1 Ladybug SE HB which looks like something out of the $2 bin from the local hardware store. Ah, hahaha, ah, hahaha, ah, hahaha! :)

Go figure. :rolleyes:

Rumors of 2020 price increases. Pedal to the metal now, buy, buy, buy! With the money i'll save; should be able to retire 2020!!!

This year was a great one for exclusives that tickled my fancy, and a few production models that I really fell hard for (the Smock and the SE pac salt come to mind). But I think I'm done for 2019, unless something unexpected really surprises me. I'm actually culling the herd right now, keeping my favorites and selling others. Deciding I don't need aaaall those Delicas... Also admitting to myself that with the exception of the Mantras, I really don't like titanium scales.

For 2020, I'm hoping for many more cruwear exclusives, more micarta scales (and combos of the two), a Rex45 manix 2, and a Smock sprint/exclusive or three!

[Hobnob]

Oh no I'm not done for 2019. Got a Black Delica CE and a Waterway on the way. That should wrap up the year. Who knows what will be coming out in 2020. Never say never.

Looking forward to K390 Delica from Seki.

[Larry_Mott]

Like Paul i have a "Para-Stretch" incoming, also a SS Delica. Was looking forever for a pristine Delica 3 but gave up and ordered this Delica 4 SS.*
Next year? Pretty sure i want the Siren, other than that.. I don't know. Looking forward to bolstered knives and wood scaled Chaps, other than that we'll see. Always some vintage gold popping up unexpectedly.

I'm in for at least two.

Spyderedge police 4 lw.

Mmmm, mmmm, mmmmmmm..... yup.

Mmmm, mmmm, mmmmmmm..... yup.

This would be interesting. What I really want in SE is a mora-esque fixed blade Byrd with a 6-7" blade of full SE goodness.

[steelcity16]

2020 wishes:

• More Cruwear (additional Seki models, CQI Military, Manix LW, Native LW, non-smooth peel ply G10 Golden models)

• More Cru-carta (Linered Native would be awesome, as would the Delica, Dfly, Endura, and Chap. And OD Green, Denim, Burgundy, and Black would all be nice to see)

• 3V folders (3V-carta Shaman??)

• Dragonflies with various new blade profiles - Dodofly, Cricketfly, Jesterfly, and Workerfly!

• Manix LW Salt

• Dodo LW in PE and SE

• Throwback flash batch of the Original C95 Manix in Cru-carta (or 3V-carta) with the original "Dino Jumping" and skeletonized liners

[SF Native]

I thought I was done but the lil native SE was just calling.
2020 bring me a lil chokwe, k390 rookie, micarta shaman, and swayback!

[attila]

I thought I was done, but the Police 4 came up for sale again, and I buckled under the pressure.

Good choice!

[anycal]

Done! With the new Stretch, that makes it 7 new knives this year.

For 2019, I look forward to more Golden knives. Specifically, Shaman and Siren. Willing to try the new Military. Maybe even the Chief, if it makes it into a sprint or exclusive queue. Or something brand new?

[T-1000]

Oh and def the military 2, although I’m afraid it might end my knife addiction. For a while at least..
