I'm one of the ones that are paying for my WD after Blade, so I'm hoping I get it nice and sharp. I hate that I'm having to wait, but the ding caught me by suprise and I didn't have money in my fun-money account waiting.

I am a stickler for gear. I do my best to buy the best or make it myself. Good enough isn't. Especially on critical gear.

well I'm hang to pass on the War Dog. Im sure I will be kicking myself later.

Don't let it bug you too much MB. You won't be feeling so bad 2 years from now when all the new guys (and me) are begging for the War Dog rerelease.

Only way to be if your life depends on it. And it just may.

I probably should have passed, but when I saw that I wasn't gonna make Blade I figured I'd order one to make up for it.

I think once it gets a good edge it will give my HRLM a run for its money as my everyday woods blade.

I like the design, blade and the handle. I feels good in the hand. The handle seems very adept for my intended use for the knife. Blanceis good.

Heck if it came as sharp as some of them I might have been tempted to try and shave with it in the morning.

Oh and I already saw a War Dog listed for $260 I think. Know you aren't buying with any ideas of selling but that should speak to value some.

I tend to use my knives. I am not big on trying to flip a knife for profit. I thought about it once and bought a Busse at a Ganzaa. I stil have it and now have no intention of selling it. Maybe a trade but I doubt it.

I figured they'd go for $300 or so on the exchange

Give it a couple of months and it might.

I am getting to the point that I am starting to really dislike the agency right next to us. They are some LAZY SOBS

I figure if I get mine and don't like it I'll at least make a little on it. I wouldn't be greedy though.
