I don't have my knives yet, but I did receive a USPS delivery attempt notice, so I'll pick them up at the post office on my way into work tomorrow.

I want one with a mudder handle. I love my S5le's mudder.

I got them too, and while nice, the choil is a big bummer for me.  the smaller blade is nice, but really not that much different from the scrapavore but with a choil. the larger one is nice too, kinda like a mora bushcraft triflex, but with a choil that hurts a lot of the usefulness... for me at least.  The handle is very nice and especially with the finger guard I really don't understand why those choils keep showing up.  I get that the blade says SYKCO and not damonkco on it, but sometimes I feel like the bussekin choil on small blades is the knife-world equivalent of obamacare (something that looks good on the outside but no-one who actually works really wants). Maybe I am off, and maybe Elmax is really great stuff (first knife I have had with it).  But my first impressions leave me thinking that I'll likely sell these off as well, which is a bummer for me as I could see how both blades would have had outstanding potential as a game processors w/o that silly choil.  still love that Scrap Muk though as the ultimate processor!  again, one man's initial view, take it FWIW. |  |  |

PM me what you want for them if you are unhappy I will gladly take them.

 The 460 is gonna be what I wanted from the Wardog.
I agree and I also like this handle much better than the mudders.

Is the 460 a bit thicker, or is it my imagination?
