Ya the DM was the first and so far only SYKC product I own, however it is one of my favorite knives. I would like to have got a yard guard as well, but I had other pressing things to deal with.
I feel quite sure the DM could outperform any of my other fixed blade knives at most hard use/outdoor related activities.
When money permitts more SYKC's will be bought.

I was just lucky that unsub posted on a gun forum that we both frequent that these were available. I din't know anything about SYKC however I did like the looks of the DM.

The rest is history
