I feel I can finally start answering this question for you now Lynn.
I don't know why (other than they look good) but I am drawn to the Boker Red Indians, so for myself that is the next one I would like to try.
For Spike I would get a DD satin edge, cheating slightly as I know he really wants one of those. I also love Butch's custom work and aspire to own one of his fine pieces too.
At the moment I will have to make do with my Bauer Pippin as Teddy (
