You know, after looking at the pictures closely I realized that the top (spine side) is kinda sorta one continuous curve from butt to tip. Also the handle has a slight downward angle from the "Choil" to the butt of the knife not straight like the ASH. This might well lend itself more toward the chopping/bushcraft usage than as a "Fighter". I know it was designed as an all rounder, but it will work in a pinch for just about anything. Just a couple things I noticed after looking at the comparison pictures. Here is the Post I am talking about over at Jerry's forum. http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php/1343914-ASH-and-TRASH Cool thread on that link Randy I agree,should be a great all arounder. Wish I could have bought two. Destined to be a classic grail.

YUP, it's lighter than the ASH, I STILL wish it was 3/16 but I can live with this. Don't get me wrong, I LIKE the way the ASH1CG feels but it's just to heavy for my girly hands.

If this thing was 3/16 inch thick instead of 1/4 I think it would be prefect! Oh and It fits in the smaller Cordura sheath they sold on the site a few years ago like it was made for the knife.
AND this just goes to prove Dan can't please everyone, no matter how much he wants to or how hard he tries. That said, this is a GREAT compromise/knife, one I will carry with pride and without the fear it may fail on me.
