I'd buy several if it had small dual guards. Or dual catches like the one on my old Yard Hooks.

I'd prefer the War Dog handle and blade shape

Shorten [maybe, or not] the blade length slightly (to 3.5 or 4") and starve it.

Sharpen about an inch and a half of the spine.

Those are my preferences.

Oh, steel preference??? 154CM > INFI > other.
