Dumpster Mutt LE was my first Scrap Yard blade. It arrived the same day as my Ratmandu...(talk about excited!) I took them both out to play. I found the handle on the Ratmandu fit my hand like it grew there...the DMLE was rather smallish but still performed exceedingly well and was quite comfortable although I do wish it were a little beefier. I have since wrapped the handle of the DMLE with paracord like Pitman and I like it pretty well.
