We need Heavy over here. He named five children and at least one Busse knife (the Hell Razor).

In the meantime, may we please buy the Combat Grade bowie and a cordura sheath?

The design of the bowie to me looks very industrial, very kick-through-walls rough-and-tumble. It's a fitting look for a knife from "Scrapyard" Knives. I think the squarish choil and the ridge up top reminds me of a bulldozer. Or a jackhammer (funny, since SR-77 is a jackhammer bit steel). Therefore, I think the knife evokes these names:

1. Bullhound Dozer
2. Bull Dozer
3. Bull Hound
4. or simply, the Bull Scrapper
5. variation on 4: Bullhound Scrapper
6. Jackhammer
7. Jackhound
8. Hammer Hound
9. Dozer Mastiff
10. Scrapjack

The key is to use my top picks, #1 and #4, in a hypothetical conversation: Your friend- "Hey, what's that?" You- "Oh this? This is my Bullhound Dozer."

Hmmm... I kinda like "Scrapjack" as well. So I guess I'll throw in more variations on the above:

1. Scrapjack Dozer
2. Scrapjack Hound
3. Scrapjack Mastiff
4. Scrappy Jack
5. Scrapjack Hammer
6. Scraphound Hammer
7. Scraphound Dozer
8. Scraphound Mastiff
9. Weilerjack
10. Scrapweiler

Yeah, the wheels are still churning. I think the inclusion of the ideas of "trail" or "bowie" are a good source of further variations:

1. Scrapjack Trail
2. Scrapjack Bowie
3. Bullhound Trail
4. Bullhound Bowie
5. Scrapweiler Trail
6. Scrapweiler Bowie
7. Jackhound Trail
8. Jackhound Bowie
9. Scraphound Bowie
10. Scraphound Trail

In summary--for now--I think that the catchiest name I thought of is some variation of "Scrapjack." The emphasis is on hard use and performance, so the reasoning behind "Scrapjack" represents that idea. At the same time, while the "Scrapjack" name evokes something more refined in style (which the new bowie design is), an alternative name variation root like "Dozerjack" or "Bullhound" evokes something that's beefier and rugged. So I would say that for different reasons, those are my top 3 names (plus or minus a "Trail" or "Bowie").
