Wow. This is one awesome knife. It just feels good in the hand. I like the feel of it with a full hand grip as in a fighting position. I like the feel choked up with the index finger on the choil and thumb on the spine for more control. I'm glad I didn't de-reg it as the top guard actually gives support to the thumb when holding with thumb on the spine and finger on choil. Plus IMHO it looks better. I like the feel when holding with three fingers on handle and pinkie on the end for kind of a snap chop for chopping.
For the money the sheath is an awesome deal. I wish I had ordered one for all of them now. I ordered two with and two without because I wanted to try making my own kydex.
This is one fine blade. It will be in my BOB, and all vehicles.
The only small negative is that it's not hair slicing sharp. But for the money I couldn't expect them to spend that amount of time on each blade. I need to learn how to really sharpen a knife anyway.

I just took a stone to my reg. In about a minute it was shaving sharp. I'm happy.

My thoughts exactly. This is perfect for the vehicle and BOB. The Reg can do it all if needed. I also got the Reg vs. Dereg and am glad that I did. Looks great. Feels great. Its a winner!

My Reg and DeReg arrived earlier today. I'm really impressed with these knives and am thinking about ordering another Regulator...
