Well, I've got a Spyderco CPM-M4 Tan G-10 Manix 2 on pre-order. As for the other 2, who knows, I'm a impulse buyer.
from bento box?
I don't know that I have a next three. For some reason I want a Case knife really badly. I don't know why, and I don't really have a specific reason for it since I already have a knife that I carry regularly. I think I like the idea of Case knives more than I can justify why I need it. That's really the best part of INGO. I don't have to explain that to you guys, my girlfriend on the other hand...

Now your speaking my language . Many years ago (over 30), I started collecting Case knives.....it was the thing to collect back then, the old traditional companies that made slip joint knives (Case, Remington, Winchester, Cattaraugus...ect). Just a fair warning...it can become an addition.....at last count (that was several years ago) I had over 300 Case knives in my personal collection.
Things have changed alot in the knife collecting world since I started collecting...almost all of the "younger" crowd collects the new tactical, assisted opening, high tech steel knives and most of them couldn't tell you the difference between an Case XX (1940-1964) and a Case 1970's dotted knife.
Brad, that is the job of some of you more experienced guys. My father carried a case knife for more than 80 years, but all I remember is "Don't touch my knife!" If you guys put up some info and pics, maybe you can spawn a new generation of collectors, especially if it's chapter than some of the fixed-blades and assisted folders out there.
