What timing. I just put a hair popping edge on my S6LE today. The S6LE is just a bit lighter than the SODLE but the overall balance of the knife is somewhat better than the SODLE IMO because it's slightly less blade heavy and faster in the hand. Of course if I knew I was primarily going to be chopping I'd pick the SODLE. As a general all around knife I think the S6LE has it by a hair. It just feels so "right" and versatile.
There's only about an inch difference between the two so it's hard to make a bad choice here.
