Nice collection, even I don't have a Scrapper 6LE

Dan

Lew,
That is a VERY impressive family portrait!

If you had to pick a EDC which one would you choose and why?

I respect your opinion and am genuinely curious!
Thanks again Lew,

Great kids, but you are right... you NEED a bigger family. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

Peace.

For an EDC I like the Dumpster Mutt. The basic handle is much less obtrusive for an EDC, and you get more blade compared to overall length.

Nice collection.

I know some of you actually carry fixed blades as EDCs. I only strap on a fixed blade if I am engaged in some outdoor activity that will likely require a heavy duty knife. If I am spending the day on my property working it might be a bowie, machete, or Dog Father. For a little walk in the woods, a HRLM, S6, RMD, or SS4 will do. The RatManDu is my new favorite. In town and such, I carry a folder. I guess that the RMD's a micarta version of the Mutt, though. I can see how the DM would be a good choice if you wanted to conceal it. If I carry a concealed fixed blade, its going to be a dagger or bowie.

Very nice family photo.

Can't wait as well, to see what the next addition to the family will look like. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

lovely collection, congrats on the le

Beautiful family you have there.

Congrats Kraz, that's a nice group. You are prepared fro any cutting chore that might present itself.

Hi Dave,
Thanks. For a true EDC that I would conceal in a pocket I'd pick the SS4 just based on the size and handle. For a knockin' around the yard/short hike knife I like the Dumpster Mutt. It fits my small hands very nicely and is clearly indestructable. There is nothing I would be afraid to cut/chop/dig/pry with a Dumpster Mutt.

For a multiday camping/hiking extravaganza I'd want the S6 (or LE) and the Yard Keeper. I could baton/chop fire wood etc. with the S6 no problem. The DF is great but I wouldn't want to hike with it. I lugged far too many overweight packs on my way to Eagle scout to finally learn the minimum I need to hike and camp with <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

I don't like coated knives for food prep/cooking so I'd use the Yard Keeper as my kitchen knife and backup knife if something happened to the S6.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Awesome story Lew, and I'd stick to it as well!
I just used my Hook for the first time last week. I owned it for more than a month before deciding on what use it would perform.
I ordered a pan pizza for our favorite store and asked for it NOT cut. When it arrived all settled in and not soaked into the cardboard disk under it I broke out the new Pizza knife the Yard Hook!
Can you imagine Lew no stain on the coating... cut through the crust and cheese like magic! It is just wonderful!

I can't believe I admitted to that. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

Love your family Lew!!!!

Peace.

Hi Dave!

Hope things are going well for you. Sounds like a great use for the hook! All we need it a bottle/can opener and the yard will feed us! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Cheers!
