I think the SOD will be one hell of a knife, but we must also be realistic here. It's not the ideal rounder like the Scrapper 6. The S6 does it all, from gutting, skinning, boning-out game, batoning, chopping, digging. You name it the S6 will do it...
...I just feel smaller is more in this case. The S6 is king as far as the ultimate survival knife that will anything & then some, all without the weight length some knives can have on the hip.
No doubt the S6 is an awesome knife, but I'm sure the SOD could do all the things you've listed and can chop better. It's only an inch longer overall and it's thinner, so as far as weight is concerned, I think they'll be roughly the same. But they will be completely different beasts, the SOD is the son of the dogfather, the chopping king in the yard, so balance will be higher. I can't wait for everyone to get it already so we can put it up to the test.
