The S7 at Blade this year (there was also a S9) was not as "tall" as the Chopweiler or the Camp Tramp.
The model S7 felt more like a fighting knife as it was pretty light. I doubt it would be my first pick to chop but would baton well and would be very easy to carry.

A Scrap Yard version of the Camp Tramp...hmmmm...would that be called... the "Scamp Tramp"??? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Why not " Scrap Tramp " ? it may have no sense, but sounds good.... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Slightly thicker than the camp tramp will be better.

What about a just a "Scramper." That sounds quite cool. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

How about a 1/4" thick SR77 Sarsquatch style blade with no swedge and a Res C handle? And he already has sheaths to fit it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

(Or third it if Jeff was your seconder!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> )

It may just be an optical illusion, but it seems to me the way the blade goes into the ricasso has changed on the S7 & S9 compared to the S6.. There doesn't seem to be a smooth transition- it seems it just has a step! (Look at the shadows on the knives). Will this create an angle that will concentrate lateral stress when butchering Jeeps? Will the choil have a pointy bit to stick in your hand? Will this new grind be a bit cheaper for us poorer dogs? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
Great minds (and me..) are wondering! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
