I am just not a fan a huge knives.  7 1/2 inches is about as big as I would want in a knife.  Any bigger than that and Ill just go with a machete or axe.  Or an all out sword.  Thats the only thing that I dont like about Busse-kin, they make too many big choppers.

At the thickness it is, 10 inches would be too heavy, not to mention too long to be useful. I think there should be a "no blade zone" in between the 7.5" & 17.5" where knives are just novelties. IMO once you go past the user bowie size it should just jump up to the machete / sword lengths. I just can't figure a real use for a 10 inch blade. No offense to the DF or anyone who loves their choppers.

The large clip makes a huge difference. The Regulator weighs less and feels even lighter in the hand than the physically smaller Yard Guard. 
 If I can make it dark, I can make it light.

There are plenty of practical applications for the regulator... trust me <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
 
 And I don't stab many people.  Anymore. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

Not quite sure what you mean by compact - the regulator is similar in both blade length and overall weight to the son of dogfather, and I would expect to use them for similar jobs.  So the question is - which one performs better at which tasks?  <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> |  |  |
