Yes something like that would be interesting but I cannot help thinking that within the Bussekin Group their thoughts would be if you want full tang performance buy one of the other "group" knives....

If the issue is having such a knife in SR77 my own experience is that when it comes to using a "pommel" for pounding on it would'nt matter...and this is just me...but also if you touch up an edge of an evening after a days hard use...it also hardly matters whether it is Infi/SR101/SR77...except perhaps on cost...where again...if you go full tang with micarta...you're probably into Ratweiler/Chopweiler money...

I sort of think that the whole 3 groups of knives was perhaps based around a "cost" scenario...

On the plus side...if you could have the balance and feel of a DFLE with a full tang and micarta...you probably have a knife as useable and balanced as a SHBM for a sensible working price...so that gets my vote very much so... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />
