How many would like to have the option of a custom shop order capability?
If Dan can manage this I think it would be great.....
The Res C handles make these knives in my view the best users but steel choice would be a real bonus for a custom shop option.
If I could order an Infi DMDC, DFLE, and a Res C FSH and a Res C Kukri I think I would sell the majority of my other knives....everything I would want would be in those....
What do you all think? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
I think the standard scrappers are hard enough to get. Res C just isn't important to me unless it is on a chopper, where it really helps dampen the shock and vibration of chopping, allowing more work with less fatique. The DMDC is nice, but the ratmandu holds an edge better. As for INFI in a chopper, it also holds an edge better than S7. The SARsquatch won't chop as well as the DFLE, but it carries as well and chops pretty well. I might point out that some well-designed micarta handles seem to work better than others in a chopper. Wait until you use your BRKT Golok and you'll see what I mean. And good old 1095 with the right heat treat seems to be tough enough for all the abuse I have dished out and it holds an edge just a bit better than S7. Of course, it ain't INFI.
