Agreed SS, the ATS34 mainly came up in context of a shaker or alternative S4.. I figure a skinner/ small utility could use stainless's corrosion resistance (blood eats carbon steel) and didn't need sr77's awesome toughness.. Big knives, no-brainer, sr77 but little ones could use other steel grades IMHO. I'm not sure about a yard folder.. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />
