Squeeze them into the JYDC. Maybe it will hit a grand by the weekend. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> Oooo! I like where your head's at! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

If you don't sharpen your axe from time to time, you will soon be chopping with a hammer.

The edge is about the same as the SOD came. Better than I can get it by hand but nowhere close to a HD edge. Still very usable.

Based on the BDLE and Mud Puppy it feels better than I expected (not that the MP and BD feel bad). I will need to use it on a couple of outings but it has a good chance of giving my Ratmandu a run for my favorite 5" knife.

good to hear, currently my 5 inch collection is my favorite and getting most of my buying attention, I am really looking forward to taking these out. It will make a great companion blade for my WAKI <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />
