Just buy all of them. You will eventually anyway. They will either hold value or go up. I have several of all mentioned and can't part with even one at this point <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/paperbag.gif" alt="" />
Just one <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bowdown.gif" alt="" />

Lazi, I thought you had both?

I never got a SOD because I have the 2 YardHooks. Been wanting a SOD more and more as I see them. I did have a DDF but sold it because I wasn't using it. Well now Im missing having a big ole chopper so it's back on the list.


JYD #82 yup...

That is why whenever I get rid of something I would rather trade <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />. That way I have something else besides just money <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Having all to to choose form the SOD in LE dress is a much prettier EDC hip blade. It's also shorter and while getting stares everywhere it is still inches shorter than the DF. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

You could still whip out a SOD at the restaurant to cut a steak,but the DF would look like using a Machete. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

Easy choice for me..Son of Dog Father Limited Edition! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />


Peace.

If I am going to carry a knife for chopping duty, I like a longer blade. While the SOD will certainly do, the DF can do more. A big knife can do what a little knife can do, even if a bit awkwardly, but a little knife can never chop as well as a big old 10" blade can.


Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

I like the dogfather if I had to choose only one.

They are both sweet knives though.

Which is the best? If you had to carry a regular DF or an SOD LE, which would it be?

Go.

It really is in the hand of the beholder. Both have a good feel for a large knife. At the end of the day I lean towards the DogFather. I use it it for chopping...of course, but I have cleaned 3 deer with it and a multitude of chores that a smaller knife could have done. I will say that I also use the heck out of my SOD and a bunch of others. So listen to the Dogs they will provide good insight and guidance

My coaching, figure out what you want to do with a knife and then go about picking one...the other way works also <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Wow. Three deer? Did you just hack 'em in half and let the guts fall out on their own? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Now why can't there just be a "Family Dog" offering--the Dogfather, Son of Dogfather and the Dumpster Mutt or Scrapper 6 as a special saver package deal <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

THAT would be worth dropping some cash on! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

LOL, The real reason I processed three deer is that I forgot my other knives and I keep a Dog Father at our deer hunting place. For the finer work I simply held up on or choked up on the tip portion of the knife. I will tell you that on the first deer when I needed to split the pelvis, I swung with light to medium force only to split the deer all the way through pelvis and back for about 9 inches...oops. I do not swing like that anymore <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif" alt="" />

Size doesn't mean a thing when you've got the power and got the swing! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> And having met you, I know that you have BOTH! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Thanks dogs! I've got an order in for a DDF. Maybe in a few months when I get some more cash I'll scratch the SOD itch. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
