I liike the sr101 steel
the only infi I own is the s5 and the biggest sr77 knife I own is the yg. sr101 is used for everything. the battle rat is my big knife, chopweiler for a shorter knife and the swamp warden is my small knife. all are users but the chopweiler and yg see the most use.

I appreciate the time you took to do the review. I know I liked my LE better than the CG S5 so I used my CG to acquire another blade made by Busse. I have to say that I do like the SR101 just fine though.

Thanks for the realistic review Crux.

I prefer my LE mainly because of the satin finish. If Dan had released a Scrapper 5 in SR101 with a satin finish and no LE numbers I would have been just as happy. Maybe future knives from Scrap Yard will have that option.

Cool comparison! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

The S5 is quickly gaining ground on the DFLE as far as my favorite Scrapper goes. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> I don't think it'll ever overtake it though. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

After using and abusing the m9le in satin SR101, I don't think I would buy another satin SR101 knife any time soon. It's an awesome blade, but it definitely gets rust stained pretty easily. I think I'd prefer my SR101 coated from here on out. It might even be worse than 1095 in regards to rusting, and every single piece of 1095 I own is coated, for good reason.
