In real life.. CT would prolly be a bit longer/wider too.. most digi-cams' widish angle lenses tend to make closer objects bigger. you can see the slight difference in the distance to the lanyard hole from the blade. it exists but it doesn't have much presence.

that's assuming the grips are identical in dimensions.

wouldn't you rather have a little recurve to your chopper?

I don't see the Scrapper 6 as a chopper per se...I see it as a great all around knife that can chop. For an "all arounder" I would much rather have the clip point than the recurve.
Thanks for the comparo, M22!

I don't see the Scrapper 6 as a chopper per se... that was kinda the point. if the s6 ain't what you're lookin for, say you want more chop in the knife, then go mojo. it also distributes the products a little better. mojo 7 or 9, bring it.

Sorry M22, not quite on the ball right now. Was wrestling with my son's new Xbox360 (birthday present) trying to get it connected to the TV.
Perhaps another consideration here is that one of the other Busse knife companies is rumored to be about to introduce a larger chopper style knife (actually 2 similar products). My bias is that I'd really like the SYK knifes to offer different blade shape alternatives to the other Busse knives, at least at the times both companies have knives in the market at the same time. Of course, this is ultimately Dan's call not mine.

Hmm best thing about the swamp these days is the logo goes on the blades.. That's the one thing Dan could take from them, the price and handle build of knives swamp should learn from Dan!
I voted for the S7, because 1/ I have a S6 and 2/ the S7 will be the new (improved) CT imho. Either would sell well though. I wonder if Dan will find any ATS34 (but don't wander off thread about that!!) <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

I see Paul hasn't lost his mettle in promoting his favorite metal <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
Sorry Paul, I couldn't resist! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
Logos are nice and all but if the logo raises the prices and lengthens the delivery time on the base models, I'll pass! Logos on the LEs are fine by me.

NP Kraz! (I couldn't resist either but didn't want to hijack a good thread!)
You are right about logo's raising the price (and as they are just pretty, they ain't yard really!) but the logo is soooooo cool it's a shame it's not a cost option!
Anyway... I voted S7! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />
