My main knives, listed according to most use, in descending order:

1. Pioneer
2. Delica
3. 889 (my folding d-mutt/delica hybrid)
4. Mora

Here's a little story about a forthcoming change in the above list.

I never really need to chop. Dead wood snaps pretty easy, even thick branches. This weekend, thanks to recent rain, I was in need of more chop than my 889 could provide. I also don't know why I took the OHT (saw equipped) out of my pack before the trip. Dumb move. The first thing I thought of, instinctively, was my khukri, but my d-mutt would have been a blessing. Too many sheep along with me for the fierce khukri so the small powerhouse is the perfect compromise, especially in combination with either of the first two knives listed.


all you mod-4 owners: i want one. may settle for a quartermaster. no substitute for a scrapper 7, though.
