I have a few holy grails when it comes to blades and this one is one of them: 13MBXII CS Magnum Tanto XII...
Seems to be impossible to find one for sale but I will not give up... Sooner or later hope....

Please, tell me about your holy grails!

Best,

My Holy Grail was the Magnum Tanto IX in 3V.

The Trail Master was "kind of" a Holy Grail because of the obvious reasons. There's one waiting for me, guarded by a good friend who lives in a foreign country. Because it's not in my hands, I don't count it as part of my "collection". But you must assume some risks if you want to succeed, and so I did.

As most people here, I'm still looking for some Old Steel stuff (for instance, I would love to have a Warcraft Tanto), but for me the Magnum Tanto IX was the one and only Holy Grail. Of course, I would buy a Magnum Tanto XII at any time, but I live in a peripheral country and don't have any hope to find one. May you find it and enjoy it!
 
For me I suppose there were two Cold Steel knives that would qualify as a "Holy Grail," but I bought them long ago.

I first learned of Cold Steel in the summer after 4th grade when I looked in my uncle's "Soldier of Fortune" magazine and saw an ad with a guy holding a 1911 and a really strange looking knife called the Urban Skinner. A year or so later I saw another ad for the Cold Steel Tanto. I really wanted both of them.

In 7th Grade I was able to get the Taylor-Seto knockoff of the CS Tanto and in 9th Grade I was able to buy the Urban Skinner.

Then on Christmas break in 1989, during my freshman year in college, a local gun store had a sale on their knives and I bought the CS Tanto with brass fittings.
