It came this morning. In fact, it was my only mail. No bills. Wahoo!

I even have a black Cordura sheath that fits it. I think it is a Ranger sheath, but it may be a SYKCO one. Whatever, it fits.

I will compare it to some of my other 7" blades.

The SOD blade is just a bit longer than the Camp Tramp's and with a more aggressive, and nicely swedged clip point.

It is a much broader blade than my new BRKT Bravo 2.

It is even broader than my BRKT KSF Custom Bowie. These two knives feel very similar in the hand, with the SOD being just slightly more blade heavy.

It is as broad as my Sarsquatch Bowie and rusty CE are.

There, that's better. Thank God for the Scotchbrite.

And finally, here is the SOD with its cousins from Swamp Rat, the Chopweiler and Ratweiler.

Next up, a little chopping comparison and some batonning. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />


Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.
