The new Reg is a bit blade heavy making it a better chopper for sure. With that being said-the original TT is a much better fighter and better balanced. edge- but as a pure fighter or a defense knife to carry in the rig I will keep my original

I've always wondered what a pure fighter is? and if someone was attacking me wouldn't I want to chop him? If I had my choice I would walk around with a Dog Father <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

But really what is a pure fighter? In Los Angeles for a number of years the number one weapon used to attack people were box cutters!! I'ld use ANYTHING to deal with a maniac like that

Also this is out of curiosity (I am a newbie) not criticism <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

You can rest assured that all THREE Regs will chop <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />. I was merely stating my OPINION mostly as to BALANCE and how " fast in hand" the original Reg was as compared to the new ones. This being a Mil overun-I can imagine that the military is indeed using these in combat situations <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />. Here is a description of a Bowie Fighter and I must say that the Reg ceratinly meets this description IMO <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> http://www.historicarkansas.org/knife_gallery/ .Yes- if someone was coming at me with a box cutter <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />-I would not really like to use ANY knife- but if I had to- the Reg is one heck of a defense knife. Of course so is the handgun that I carry in my rig here in Oregon <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />. That may not be the case in LA <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />? Not sure of the laws. Keep in mind- this is merely MY OPINION of the Regs. One heck of a knife I must say at a great price whichever model you prefer. I like both versions so I have several of each. Thanks <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
