#1 Mudder (like on the Scrapper 5 ... which I wish you'd re-release) #2 Basic (like on the 711)

My least favorite were the War Dog and Regulator handles.
If the "basic" type came in two sizes that would be nice. A "small" for 5" and less and a "large" for 6" and over ... it would "balance" the knife.
Still love the Mudder the best. The Scrapper 5 was my first Bussekin (during the original release) and is still my favorite. Sadly I've given all of them away ... BRING BACK THE S5!!!!!!
Oh, and the Yard Keeper ... that little guy was super practical.

The "basic" is a great "general purpose" handle while the "mudder" is nice for smaller knives. Admittedly, the only War Dog experience I have was during a very short lived test (someone loaned me one for an evaluation, but asked for it back 24 hours after I received the knife so I had very little personal experience with it). Perhaps I misjudged in my haste.

Larger (Regulator type) offering on the larger (working blades like the Chophouse knives, you know, choppers) knives, WITHOUT the top "guard", depending on the intended use of the knife.
711 type/size on knives 6 inches or larger (fighter type or multi use blades)
Mudder handle on knives 5 inches or smaller. (I personally think that a larger Mudder handle would be nice on the larger knives as well, but it WOULD need to be LARGER and really hand filling.
On a personal note, I wonder if a Dregulator handle could be made to fit a Chophouse lean cut?
