At first I was hesitant about the top guard, but now I'm kind of looking forward to doing all my detail cutting with the guard. It's not like this is the first bushcraft knife ever to have one.
Even if I didn't like the top guard in any way, I would have a hard time justifying spending ten dollars and using Dan's valuable time just to have a super machine do what would take me a minute or two.

Dan mentioned that he made the Deregulator so that people wouldn't have to mess with their knives.
Unfortunately, that's half the fun. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/loopy.gif" alt="" />

That is what I am thinking. I am not spending $10 to have someone cut a small piece of rubber for me. I am lazy but I am also cheap. I think this is a case where my cheapness outweighs my laziness.

Anyway, I can just go down to the zoo and capture a beaver and force it to bite the guard off if I need to. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/loopy.gif" alt="" />
