I've always thought that was probably a gift to Scrap Yard to help generate some Hog interest. I don't have the slightest idea if they were as limited as the INFIcoot release though. Aside from folks who probably bought SS4s speculatively at release prices, people tend to keep them; I've seen the number for sale fall quite a bit over the last year.

I'd probably be happy with my 1 but I want to find one for my dad. I like to start shopping really early so I have time to find stuff thats really nice and unusual

do you have a muppy?

Private Klink was kind enough to proxy 5 of them for me. One of them was #60, and then I bought two BDLEs and got a #60 there too. That's why I'm hoping to be in position to become JYD #60.

As I recall, I've got MPLEs #53, 54, 55, 60, and 61 and BDLEs #59 and 60.

how do you like the muppy choil compared to the SS4?

I like the MPLEs better than the BDLEs, but I say that without having actually used either of them -- I've just held them and stored them in their plastic sleeves.

5 more to JYD!!

early gratz!

I prefer the appearance of the MP choil, but I'd blunt the choil/blade junction a bit if I wanted to use it as a finger grip. Even though your grip tends to pull the index finger away from that sharp corner, why take chances? The SS4 choil is more comfortable, but it's also larger, so you loose cutting edge for it. I think the MP's choil was a compromise between a full choil like the SS4 and one of those mini-choils like the YK.

thanks kenken. Almost there. I really like a useable choil.

Is it time now? like watching the ball drop, hanging out with my dogs, the way it should be I guess
