Sorry, it is not a full flat grind. It is full width about a half inch or so down from the spine.

The first in my Avatar is a Ratweiler, the second a Desert Jack and the third is a Howling Rat...

I bought one from the last run of the 'Weilers... The Desert Jack was offered to me AT COST (maybe less) with a customer leather Dwayne Puckett sheath by a really neat guy from The Swamp!!!!!... The Howling Rat was also bought from the very last run of Res-C knives offered from The Swamp. The Howling Rat was bought for my wife and she loves it!!!

The Desert Jack is my all-time favorite knife that will be the one that they pry from my cold dead fingers!...

if i could get my hands on any rat, it would have to be the rw.

Oh yeah... I also have a Rat Shaker II...



It's the 1/4inch version... I wish I had found one in 3/16th though... It's still a great lil toothpick!!!

That is a sweet little knife!

me likey.

I'd like to see a little skeleton EDC from the Yard one of these days.

That would be nice! Let's see...

.....I'm thinking a Drop Point would be great on a "deeper" blade... Where as a strait spine might be nicer on a more slender blade design...

...In fact, the Game Warden and Skeleton Key are pretty well designed; and taking design queues from them would be a great place to start! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Your specs sound good to me! 5/32 or 3/16 would be nice.

Hello HS. You have been a member longer than I have. Sorry you missed out. I just missed the Dog Father, but got one from a scalper. Since then I have managed to score a Scrapper 6, two Dumpster Mutts, and a Yard Guard from SYKCO. Just check in once or twice a week, and you will get that DFLE. I want one, too.
The Yard Guard and Yard Hook only lasted about 72 hours before they sold out.

Those specs sound very cool to me... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

INFI would be really good for that one!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> but I'm not picky. I just want a cool SY EDC!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" />
