Nah - the RD7 (@7.5") is great, and one of my favorite knives, but the ASH1 has a lot more weight to its blade, even though its a full inch shorter. My money is on the ASH1 outchopping the RD7 and Hook - I'll report back on that once I actually get out to the woods with it, though.
I would be very interested in this. the ash looks great but I would go for the cheaper RD7 or CW.
