I currently have only 4 pins (#2 knifeblade, #6 bugaboo, #6 angle and a gravel lost arrow)
what would be a good to get for 6 or so more? full range of knifes/bugs?
cheers,

Hi Mate,
I'd lean towards the Knife Blades and the Bugs, ditch the Arrow (a nut or a cam will go that small, heck you can weld a nut in with a hammer!). I usually only carry a set of pins in the icy/snowy months, and go with extra cordolette through the dry season.

It partially depends on the area you're climbing in. I like blades and baby angles for a lot of routes....

Couple of bugs and a couple of baby angles. But as was said earlier, it depends on the rock. Limestone loves, blades. With exception of horizontal cracks, nuts work as well as angles.
