Looking for a new Camera

Any suggestions on what new camera I should buy. Mine doesn't seem to take good close ups of my knives. I have a Canon Powershot A720IS  - 8 MP and 6x zoom. Its been a good camera for the past 4 years but its getting slow taking the shot, even with new batteries. It also does not take good pics - like ball games or graduations - they turn out dark. We are not to up on cameras and wonder if anyone has a good suggestion on an upgrade that will take care of the above problems??

Thanks.

Look how clear the stamping on this trusty old Kabar is:

Here is a faded stamping on a Camillus #72 - nice and clear what you can read.

So far I am real pleased with our new Camera. Seems to take nice clear close ups.

They all look great much improved I would say!  And it does look like you can get close too!
