I’ve been fortunate enough to pick up some dogs (and a large hog) and need to focus down on 3 users.

I really like the Yard Keeper and prefer it over the Dumpster Mutt DC. I know that is heresy in some quarters but it just feels better in my hand and it now travels with me daily. However, I can’t pull it out at work and need a smaller EDC fixed blade.

I like the look of the Wardens but don’t want to pay $200+. So my first question is if a mud puppy is a good alternative or do I just bite the bullet and get a warden user?

I also have a FBM LE. It is an amazing piece of steel but it is a little too heavy for me. Second question, is a Dog Father a better alternative or should I just get Bushwacker BM while they are still available.

I know there are no right answers but would like to get some opinions.
