A Damascus steel knife.

Spoiler

Not really a fan of the skeletonized handle so I'm planning on buying a piece of carbon fiber and making some scales for it.

For a handle like that I would actually imagine that a paracord weave would provide better grip. Disclaimer: I've never been a big fan of carbon fiber handle inserts as I feel that they get too slippery too easily which is something that you really don't want with a knife.

I literally just bought Hyrule Warriors like 5 minutes ago.

Before that however was a scarf made after the mask from Watch Dogs, and two hoodies made from some Chinese designer.

From the recent PSN sale:
-Knights in the Nightmare
-Hexyz Force
-Growlanser: Wayfarer of Time.

I bought that Growlanser as my first one because I read that it's a self-contained story. And I bought the other 2 because they're both Sting games and games developed by Sting are fucking rad.

I bought Wasteland 2 last night. If I didn't commit to that purchase, the last thing I bought would have been a six pack of Dr. Pepper.

 

[RedDeadFred]

A Full Throttle energy drink. It's not good, but I've actually needed them to get me through the day considering I'm usually up to 1-3 in the morning and getting up at 6.

 

[JagermanXcell]

In terms of video games: Dragon's Dogma.
In terms of a weird purchase to justify weird but funny actions to perform for the best holiday and month coming up: A life sized skeleton... oh, and Arizona Half & Half cause I was thirsty after school.

I'm keeping that baby in my car all October mind you... I named him Nito.

 

[Happiness Assassin]

Let me check steam... Witcher 2, I guess. Still haven't finished it and it really didn't grab me so I doubt I will finish.

Hmm that's interesting I got that same scarf (kinda like a skimask almost) from the Collector's Edition; wondering if they're just harvesting parts from unsold CE and trying to make a profit selling the goodies individually.

I'm not sure. I got my copy from Steam, so that kinda stuff was out of the question. I did buy a Watch Dogs mask from Otakon this year, but it was made from this thin, flimsy material that you can't wash, and I wanted something that I could wear in the winter.

I picked up the Rise of the Samurai campaign for Shogun 2. It's fun, but not a patch on Fall of the Samurai. You just can't beat ship to land bombardments on the battlefield.

 

[Something Amyss]

I just bought the latest Humble Bundle. The one with Ms. Splosion Man. Before that, I bought a new center speaker for my surround sound.

Spoiler

I feel I made a wise choice. You know...once I figure out what button I'm supposed to push to make it rock out.

You chose a red one? Those sound horrible!

Anyway, there's no button to make it rock out. You have to tilt the headstock upward.

Some souvenirs I've picked up in the Basque country. A beret, a wristband, some tea leaves and chocolate...

And a dress!!
Also, chocolate sounds awesome possum.

The woman who sold me that dress asked me if I wanted to try it on. I don't know if it was a joke anymore.

I bought a diet coke from a paper shop on my way home from work. I haven't drank coca cola of any sort for about 5 years and now I am reminded as to why I stopped drinking soda. Not a happy camper here.

 

[Rabbitboy]

Except for food and drink. Endless space and Age of Wonders on steam last weekend.

Tomorrow I'm planning to look for a new belt and new shoes. Not because I want it but because I need them. I don't know why but I hate having to go shopping for new clothes.

 

[Rolaoi]

Tonic water for my gin. They make such a lovely couple.

 

[seris]

bought my father a new gaming mouse for his birthday

This isn't a knife I plan to use much, it's more of a vanity thing than anything else, and I picked carbon fiber just because I think carbon fiber and damascus steel look really good together, not because I'm looking for maximum usability. As far as paracord weaves go, I absolutely hate them. I never find them comfortable and they always look horribly ugly. If I wanted to give the knife some better grip I'd go for some rough canvas micarta.

 

[viscomica]

A new cellphone to replace the old one and a sandwich for lunch (in that order).

 

[Ironbat92]

I traded my Vita and a few games for the fallowing

A Nintendo 2DS

Pokemon Y

Super Mario 3D Land

I just purchased a new 2TB HDD for my computer. My current one keeps on flagging up warnings that it is pretty much on it's deathbed, and considering that my current HDD stores ALL of my games (aside from Battlefield 4), I decided that I should get a new one before that happens.

I am also thinking about pre-ordering Dragon Age: Inquisition. It is a game that I have had my eye on for a long time now, and it looks super interesting, so I will probably go ahead with it, but it is just a matter of getting around to it. Will probably end up getting the digital deluxe edition because unicorns (kinda).

EDIT: Scratch that, it is now Dragon Age: Inquisition.
