You guys are talking me into placing an order : ) Heck, the S5 is sweet but I'm thinking the full tang seems to a good idea in a 5" knife. I may just have to go into the red at my bank for a week or so! ; )) What would be a good choice? I fancy the Moss blade with black Micarta (much the same as one of my skinny Ash's) Thanks for your thoughts & info! JB
