I was on the original "HEADHUNTERS" team in nam....we didn't get that name for nothing.... To receive "credit" for a kill , you had to produce 1 of 3 items....documents...weapons...or "parts". This was the problem, if all that was left was ..say a left ear... my CO wouldn't count that as a kill. So a dufflebag full of heads got his attention..and our unit name. We were THE scariest unit to the enemy. We had heads on pole surrounding our hooch area. The smell was....pungent to say the least. We fought on the enemies level...and lower(more). Won't send photos...but my knives were my weapons of choice. Tools of the trade , weapons of war , sinse the beginning of time , knive are our most primitive tool.

Ya...remind me to never piss you off... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/paperbag.gif" alt="" />

One SY Regulator in all green and one black blade / blaze orange handle please.

MAN, I hope these things hit the site soon.

It kinda makes your brain itch and your hair hurt just thinking about waiting for these things.

Ya know, the more I think about it being differentially tempered, the more I want to strip the coating... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" />



I (of course) WAY prefer satin blades anyway. I do thank Dan for bringing us "most" knives with a satin option.

Unfortunately, historically there have been VERY FEW satin SR-101 blades - whether differentially heat treated or not.

The M9LE was one of the first in MANY years.

I WISH they always provided satin options (at reasonable up-charges), but historically, they have not - especially in SR-101.


Anyway, as much as satin looks WAY nicer to me just in general, Differentially heat-treated SR-101 is a BIG extra bonus in looks!!!

The times I've honestly put either SR101 , or SR77 to the "fire" , they have BOTH did OUTSTANDING in performance , durability and execution. I do know that I've sharpened very little on the SR101....and used it heavily. My SR77 has withstood every task and I've touched it up more frequently. Given all scenarios, the SoD would be my general combat/utlity/survival blade.
