I agree that this is exactly the knife I was hoping for also.
I read on another forum that the 3 inch cutting edge was a typo and it should be more like 4 3/4 cutting edge - if I remember right it was posted either by Jerry Busse on a Busse forum maybe on Bladeforums.com or in Swamp Rat knifes forum by Eric - its been a long weekend if you know what I mean.
To me the thickness isn't an issue - .235 is only about 3/64ths thicker than 3/16th or .1875 and most people like 3/16ths for a blade thickness.
The real plus is its a nice thick infi knife in a great size - sort of a Super Pukko or Super Mora.

The blade dimensions remind me a bit of a fallkniven s1. If memory serves me correctly the S1 has a 5" blade, .20" spine and is approximately 1" from edge to spine (maybe a bit taller.) The S1 is marketed as an all around survival/woods knife, and I'm thinking the war dog will be equally suitable for such tasks, granted the war dog sports better steel and potentially a better/more ergonomic handle.

I thought the same thing about the likeness to the Fallkniven S1 when I saw it. I have an F1 and have been thinking of getting an S1, but this will satisfy that nitch for a while (along with my recently acquired RMD).

If you're taking pre-orders, put me in for two! Someone's got to look out for SF45ACP while he's out catching trout. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> Truly you are my brother from another mother.

This is my first post. I'm new here and have yet to get a bussekin blade. I've been lurking for about a year but just got an account. I was tempted to get the deregulator but wanted to hold out for something different. The war dog looks really good and infi would be awesome to get, but I want to continue waiting for the blade that really sings to me. I was hoping for a chopper. The price doesn't help my situation either (graduated from college two years ago and have a truck-load of student loans). Anyway, thought I would stop "lurking" in the shadows and say hi.

Hello! I'm new here, took the plunge and ordered one of these since it seems to be everything I'd love in a knife. This will be my first Scrap Yard blade, but I fear it won't be my last... Welcome to the Yard Dumpster Dan

You will need to pay at the time of shippment...when the credit cards are charged. I suspect we will ship shortly after Blade Show if everything goes right....does this help?
Dan
Could the card charging be a mistake? I have knives going out the door as we speak...I really wanted everyone to have there knife...if possible, before Blade show. I figured the guys who cant be there in person could at least handle their WAR Dog in one hand and toast us with the other <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> I will make sure to lift my class and toast you all Dan
