Great review ,I have both those blades myself. I have a hard time deciding between
the CS Norse Hawk and the DFLE. I have customized the norse quite a bit. The hak is a great balance of light weight to usefulness. It is still pretty snowy here so I have not gone out much.

I found the handle on the CS bolo to be to big for my small hands. I liked the regular kukuri machete better than the bolo.

I find I usually agree with Horndog on knives because we have similar likes and dislikes. I am especially fond of the DFLE. I think I am going to have the DFLE and the Chris Reeve Inyoni as my bush tools this year. Last year it was the Norse hawk and the SS4. The Inyoni should strap to the custom Rainwalker leather sheath and make a great companion to the DFLE.

I am also going to be taking my bow with me this year. I feel like I should have a horse but the Kawi quad will have to suffice.
