I could never get myself wrapped around the Regulator. I've had lots of 'em--Regulators, Deregulators, Test Team Regulators, Bull Dog Regulators, etc. The 6" one might work, and the Bulldog one was nice, but the regular Regulators made me feel too much like a pirate. Not a huge fan of the clip points. BUT, everyone is different as are their preferences. Would I trust my life to the Regulator? You bet. Would it be my go to blade? Probably not. But that's just me
