I think it's important to find a knife that fits your needs, not to try to fit the knife to them.

If you want a woods knife, the Reg may not be it. Not saying that it won't do those tasks, just that there may be another model that will better.

The SOD is fantastic as a camp knife.

However, I like collecting knives (as all of us here do) so if that's your reason for wanting the latest design I say "awesome"! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />
