Reality is 6 one half dozen another, nobody here is going to break either blade. The one thing I will say is that you can get what you want when you want it from Justin, you don't have to sit here and wait like starving children waitng for our new blade. I can sketch something on a napkin and send it off to him and have it made. I hear a lot of great things about Scrapyard and I can't wait to get my hands on my S6, it will be my camp/go to knive and that is why I got it. Either way the blades are both extremely tough and you can't go wrong either way.... DAN GIVE US MORE STEEL
