then I would just use the full size, (or "manual" as I was calling it for some reason) it's obviously a VERY good knife and it's a shame to keep it as a "safe queen" just because it might be a limited run of the knife or something.

JMO though.

I used it the last we made some traps. The serrations were very useful for making stop notches and the plain edge was good for whittling. It's a very useful knife and is still as sharp as it was when I got it. 'Course I expect S90V to do that.

I think the SARD can do everything and more than the socom.
The sard is 440c which also has excelent edge retention and eickhorns 440c is put under the german equivalent to the busse heattreat.
Plus its cheaper. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

The SARDs are starting to get to me. I might try one out some day. They do look very functional and dropping 100-130 for a folder isn't too bad considering my Rukus was more and use the hell out of the Rukus.
