What is the most recent knife you bought?

Spyderco Manix 2 with the Maxamet steel blade, heat treated to RC 68-70.

What is Maxamet steel?
Maxamet is made by Carpenter Technology, a company best known among steelsnobs for its CTS-XHP, which made appearances on the Spyderco Techno, Slysz Bowie, and Chaparral among others. ... This significant increase in hardness means that Maxamet will be a very hard-wearing steel with off the charts edge retention.Sep 1, 2016

Best knife I've ever owned. Two years hard use and it still shaves arm hair.

I don't remember which but it was one of these two.

The one on top is a CRKT Ignitor. It's their entry level knife and it cost 30 bucks. For that price it's a pretty good value it's a well-made knife that holds its edge well and if I remember right they guarantee it for life against everything but abuse

The second is a Buck 285 Bantam. I bought it to have a cheap pocket knife for work that I wouldn't get butthurt about if I lost or broke it. I'm pretty sure it cost less than $20.
 
I snagged a "used" (read: unused) Zero Tolerance 0562 a month ago. I had sold some other knives a few years ago with the intention of buying one. Life happened, and I never did. Then I saw one for a good deal on another forum and jumped on it. It is a very nicely balanced knife that handles quite well.
 
I bought 3 carbon steel fixed blades at the last fun show.
Got a pretty good deal on them, too.

The knife before that I bought a Buck 113 (Ranger Skinner).
Decent little knife; fits my hand well.


If I see something neat, I will pick it up.
"Need" has nothing to do with it.
Haven't "needed" any in awhile...
 
Still a wee bit jealous of that one!

The last knife I bought was a little Kershaw
 
Buck 110 due to a fit of nostalgia over the one I had from 1972 that went AWOL. Let me know if anyone needs to see a picture of one.
 
Found some old gift cards with a little bit left on them still so I ordered some inexpensive knives.

I ordered this over the weekend from KnifeCenter. The clearance price of 58% off MSRP was enough to get me to finally buy one.
