Nice blades Pit; I really like the top one. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Yeah it's not mine unfortunately but I really like the design how there is no waste of blade. Even on that knife I feel the handle could be 1/2" longer.
This pic shows how it has both more useable blade and also more usable handle than the Bandicoot.

If I could pick just one, I wouldn't have all these... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />



I actually have more than this now... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/paperbag.gif" alt="" />

My vote is for the Yard Keeper because it's a great size and has the S6 grip only a little smaller, but my favorite is the DMDC because it has a slightly longer blade.

I'm getting ruined by Bussekin knives, and I just started. I stated this before but,,small hands need a bigger, thicker handle, larger hands can do nicely with a smaller, thinner handle. At least that's how it works for me. YMMV

So Andy, which one feels the best?

I would like to get a SS4 and a HR to try out. I do agree with Horn Dog on the Bird Dog bing a great knife--I love mine.

Either the mudder or the RMD/HRLM handle. The standard res-c & Basic handles are a little small.

Get a S5 and have HD cut it down to 4".....or wait for the Scrap Pup...

I think the regular Res-C and Mudders work well for most of us - big guys have always had to go over-sized. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

i love my rc 4 its a great knife and tight now im saving up for eather a brovo 1 or a montana guide from brkt

I have a YK, a BRKT canadian special, and a few other 4"ers.
I have to say I'm kind of fond of Barkies for that size knife.
I think the bravo would be perfect. I love my yardkeeper too, I love to beat on it and with some work on the edge geometry it cuts well too, but Barkies seem to be among the best of that size knife.
