PoP's advertisment doesn't convince you, I don't know what will! On of my regrets is that I didn't snag one of the hooks (although I like the hookless Guard better) while they were still in the store when I was new to the yard and just getting my bearings. I think they finally disappeared the day I decided to pull the trigger. Don't let that happen to you!

where did you get the sheath?

That sheath is a Rainwalker Custom Kydex Sheath my friend. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Not only does The Rainwalker specialize in Leather Custom Sheaths but Kydex of all shapes and colors as well. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" />

That was made for me as soon as the Hook was released. Jeff cranked out that beauty for me at once.

It has a colored Kydex and steel clip as well as a Tek Lok configuration. I can wear it on my right hip up and down top draw or on my left hip side draw across my belly.

I prefer the cross draw due to the weight of The Hook. Just rides better there for me. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

No way you can go wrong with a Yard Hook and ANY Rainwalker rig. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bowdown.gif" alt="" />

Enjoy,

Peace.

yeah sharp newbie, Rainwalker is a Master!

P.O.P.s made me do it!

Well, I bought it <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Hope it´s worth it... it will arrive on wednesday, let you know what I think after some testing

Simon, any Busse-SwampRat-Scrapyard is worth it, even if you don't understand that! the resale value alone is "Worth IT!"

Whichdawg: I can´t own a knife and don´t use it. Value will drop when used and I don´t even like to sell my knives. If I buy a knife I intend to keep it and use it or else I don´t buy it.

Got the Yardhook today, with a Spec-ops sheath. First impression was what a nice sheath!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> Just kidding. The knife: It´s small compared to what I´m used to. And it´s heavy, which is good. Better then I thought so I´m not disappointed <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> Thick edge, gone fix that and then out and test it all weekend. YEEEHAW!!! Party on!!!

Glad you got it, Simon. Now put an edge on it.

Chop a log with it:

Open a beer with it and enjoy your work!

Glad to see you got the knive you wanted Simon. My Yard Keeper should be sent out tomorrow, hopefully.

HD: Nice pics. I see you change the angle on the hook, I have to fix that on mine too <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
I did some chopping in my bedroom and it works great for the size. Can´t wait the get out in the woods and test it

Since I try to avoid knife fights, I ground the bottom of the blade catch so that the front edge was sharp enough to catch the edge of a crown cap. It's nice to have a camp knife with a bottle opener. It would still catch an opponents blade should I need to defend a cooler full of beers from intruders. The Yard Hook is one heavy duty knife that will never break.

I've never regretted buying ANY of my Yard knives.. I can't say that in all honesty about my other Bussekins, so enjoy your wonderfully tanky piece of indestructible, not especially corrosion prone sr77- the thinking man's INFI.. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
