The Bog Dog! Such an awesome knife. The SR101 version is just a tad thicker than the D2 version, and the D2 is quite thin. I don't remember the numbers and I'm too lazy to look up the thicknesses.

Sounds a lot like my Bog Dog You process any game with it yet Max? If so, how did it work? More of a drop point if I remember correctly.

Certainly you know the answer to that!
The BD is amazing in every sense. My primary belt blade for hiking / camping / hunting. I still prefer my GI when processing animals, but the BD is no slouch. It points easily, holds a great edge, and is thick enough to require no special treatment.
If SYKCO ever makes one similar...I'd probably get it. I favor the drop point for most functions over the SS4 design.

I'm going to blaspheme....
I bought a few KaBar / Becker BK16 to test as a detail knives. The ergonomics are fantastic, and the knife feels very nimble. My concern will be edge retention.
Time will tell.

Gary I just watched a video today about stripping the coating off the whole knife, getting a plastic sheath from Azwelki and putting on canvas micarta scales. Said the whole thing should run (counting the cost of the knife) about 120-130 and will preform as good or better than knives running up to about 150 or so.

Becker, just like esee's are good knives. Only issue in my mind is that 1095 doesn't perform like sr101, easier to sharpen but that's it. I like a2 or 01 over 1095.
