If I could change my vote, I would. I voted for sr101 but I would have to agree that I want Swamp Rat to continue to prosper. I too would like to have both companies maintain their current steel choice.
Both companies have used both steels. They are both "SR" or Swamp Rat steels. Even if SRKW and SYKCO both use SR101, there will be a difference in price because of the handles. I really like Swamp Rats a lot, and in some sizes I prefer them to Scrap Yards. I don't see SYKCO using SR101 as any threat to SRKW, because some folks prefer micarta and G-10 to Res C. And some prefer Res C, especially in choppers. I just see SR101 as a little better steel for most uses than SR77. But not in Crash Axes.
