I had forgotten the 511 in my original post. Don't have one but everyone that does has nothing but praise for it. And from the looks of it it WOULD/IS a GREAT edc woods blade.

Big chopper=Dogfather

Best chopper=Chopweiler (I can't get tired of it)

5"=Ratmandu or War Dog (everyone needs at least one of each) I've handled the 511 and still like the RMD more. 511 needs another inch or two of handle and 1/2 inch of choil in my opinion.

EDC=Swamp Warden, scrapivore, or Muppy

Deer processing blade=Scrap Muk

If I could only take one blade with me, it would be the Chopweiler all the way <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> Sorry Yard, but it has become my all-time favorite. Lookin' forward to pitting it against the 7-11 though (both the Yard's and the Swamp's <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> )

I actually like micarta on my choppers--no problems yet.

Big Chopper = DogFather
Mid Range = Scrapper 5
EDC = Mud Puppy

Luckily I'm covered a few times over in those categories <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Only a few? Slacker! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

Dan needs to start releasing more cause right now Jerry's getting most of my money.

My first Busse Kin was the MO Regulator with the sheath.

Since then I've picked up from various sources a Scrapper 5, a RatManDu, 2 War Dogs, 2 511'a (the Alaska Ganza MO sterile versions), 2 Basice 6 LE's, another used Regulator, a Rodent 9, a SAR 8, a Team Gemini, a Cultellus, a Shiva Rex, a Tank Buster LE and I have 5 Basic 10 LE's on order.

I could save a lot of money (OK save no money but have more knives) if Dan started releasing the 911 series all at once.

Well done!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

I also REALLY loving the ratmandu, if I could find that for a good price (that IIII can afford) I would own one ASAP

Check with the Swamp, they MAY have some for sale already made up. I think they were gonna keep them on a semi-open order.

Look Here

If I could only own one knife, it would be the Ratmandu.

The ratmandu is a BAD MOFO

I have a camo 511 and a rodent 9 and now I am waiting for my busse basic 10le one in each flavor.
