I'm bummed. I was dinged on the 15th but didn't get my Reg today. But I did get in my SRKW knives so it took a little of the sting out of it.

The new Reg is a bit blade heavy making it a better chopper for sure. With that being said-the original TT is a much better fighter and better balanced.The sheath fits both versions with no problem and if you work the snaps a bit they do break in. For camp chores the new one has a slight edge- but as a pure fighter or a defense knife to carry in the rig I will keep my original <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />.If a guy was wanting to buy just one- I really can't say as i am not in that postion. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> I would say with the very limited runs of the original that prices are going to go up for guys seeking a fighter/ defense type of blade <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />. On the other hand- at 100 bucks with sheath I would suggest that if you haven't ordered one best get on it while these are still in the store <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" />. These two knives in SR101 are going to be classics for sure <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />. I will give a few more opinions after I have bashed on the new one like I did one of my old version <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />. Keep in mind- these are merely MY opinions and i don't know a hell of a bunch <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />-Thanks <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

In Los Angeles for a number of years the number one weapon used to attack people were box cutters!! I'ld use ANYTHING to deal with a maniac like that Also this is out of curiosity (I am a newbie) not criticism <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

I was under the impression that if you got the discount for the Reg. you had a agreement not to sell for a certain amount of time and the Regulators would be numbered if you got the discount....However I do not work for Scrap Yard but I had asked Renee about this when they were released because I was thinking about getting one for my brother in law who is in the military.
But remember I do not work for Scrap Yard so I might be wrong.
