411, Weiner Dog and Mud Puppy. Then maybe a 911 or Dogfather.

Had a DF, GREAT blade, but just heavier that what I felt I needed. Swapped it for a 911 (To Jarhead Journalist) and was much better satisfied and it has done all I ever asked of it. Now I also have a 1311 and YUP, don't feel as if I need a blade as thick as the DF (I also have my BWM to fall back on if I need it. Oh and I have my S6 (thanks to Architect) If I need a really good Combat blade.
So, the SS4 and a 4-4.25 inch bladed Gray mudder gripped Muppy would do me pretty well.

There is a lot of love here for the SS4. I've never used (or even held) one so I can't comment.
I really liked the Yard Keeper because of the thin blade with a lot of belly. That knife was just a great general purpose user! I can only imagine it would have been spectacular in SR101...especially with a convex edge !

I forgot to mention, I gave my Yard Keeper to my uncle (he's a Firefighter with 22 years on the Department). That knife has been "used" extensively, and is still going strong.

Hi Dan, glad to see you back on. Here are my top four.
1. SS4 2. Yardhook 3. Weinerdog 4. Scrapper-6 I meant to change #3 to bird dog LE, so here is my list: 1. SS4 2. Yardhook 3. Birddog LE 4. Scrapper 6 I'd definitely buy a SS4, yardhook, and another bird dog LE if they ever came out again. I always thought a satin SS4 and a little thinner than the original would be an awesome knife.

Hello everyone, I have two, a Muk and the 13-11. Love both of them. The 1311 is a chopping monster. Good job as I don't think I hit the same spot twice.
I told my wife I wanted to be cremated. She made me an appointment for tomorrow afternoon.

Thanks Tom. I was getting lonely back there. Sitting three years out of date feeling three years older.
