my m9 might not be a DF but i bet its very close in performance...and its a beautiful knife. like the DF

I missed out on the M9, too. Yeah, those two blades seem very similar.

I just can't stomach the price markup. I guess I am too cheap. I haven't seen any under $200, and they disappear instantly at that price.

Plus, there is the fact that buying on the secondary market doesn't infuse any real money back to SYK.

I am smoking an El Mejor Emerald cigar right now and drinking a Paulaner Hefe-weizen. Good combo.

i agree that why i never got one...maybe in a few years dan might re-release it but i dont see him doing re-releases for a while.

maybe sometime down the line....

i know i got the second best to the DF the SOD! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

That poll I ran on the forum indicated that there would be about 100 DFs purchased by forum members if he did a production run.

MCJ - Do you have any idea how the SOD compares to the Chopweiler? Are they similar beasts?

every now and then you will find a deal where the they just want to move them sideways. i think just being prepared to pull the trigger is the key. i don't think i'm going to let too many slip through my hands. one they are no longer available and i decide i don't like it or don't want it then it's not hard to let them go. i hate missing out though...

chopweiler wins out of the factory imho....ive never handled one... but the designs scream CHOP in a mid size knife.

NOW my SOD with convex edge will give it some rubs for sure! make it very close if not win
