So some comparisons to the Scrapper 5 is in order. About. 047 thinner, 1/2 inch shorter, straighter spine. .... For this one, a full flat grind and orange mudders would make it perfect. Idk, I'd say it is probably more similar to the 411, just thinner and a tad longer (which is AWESOME). I'd love to see this offered as full-flat with orange res-c, but I suspect it will be saber-ground to keep strength up.

Careful to draw conclusions just yet. Dan hasn't released the length yet. Looking at the pictures…I'm guessing 5.5-5.75" length, based on an understanding that the Mudders are "just shy" of 5" in length. Just a guess though, I could be way off. I agree, hope it's a FFG. I also am hoping for a drop point custom for the SantaGanzaaa

For comparisons: EDIT: Maybe more akin to a shortened Boss Jack, in utility??

Yeah, the more I look at it, the more it looks like it's closer to 6" instead of 5". I wonder if they took it to a higher Rockwell than 60? That would be pretty sweet!
