I agree with SkunkHunter, the value of the knives overhere is mostly because most of them are "limited in numbers" , most of them proof to be exactly the tool for what it is made and even more, the warranty, community,...

I must be honest I own lots of knives not only busse/swamp rat/scrapyard knives, but afther learning more about knives, steel,hardening/heat treathment I prefer the kin knives!

Also let's be honest they are gorgeous !!!

The cold steel ReconScout is a great knife , if you got one of the old productions. It is a good camping knife, also for the bigger work.
If you ask me if I would trade my trusted ReconScout for another SOD, the answer would be: " yes in a second "
