So I was looking at some old receipts and discovered that the Reg with sheath was only $110, unbelievable. For the knife that it is? It chops, it slices, it dices. I understand that economics have changed in the last few years so I wondered if there was ever a better deal that came from the Yard?

Only deal like it was the 6.5 Regulator for $79.

I was really tickled with mine, and would have paid a lot more for it if needed. (Hope Dan didn't read that!)

For me it is hard to say because of the exchange rate
When I bought the dumpster mutt and Yardkeeper the Canadian dollar was around $0.65 or $0.70 us.
When I bought the regulator tt and the 1311 the Canadian dollar was around par with the us dollar

Sooo is there any thinking that the regulator should come back in a different configuration??? I would love to hear back from the Yard Dan

Hmmmmm. How about with a 12 inch blade, a quarter inch thick. Oh and In RED (so all the blood from cutting ourselves wouldn't show so bad). And MAYBE The Bowielator. With the blade wider as it gets toward the tip than at the handle. Kinda like this Negrito Hunting Bolo![[Linked Image from farm8.staticflickr.com]](http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7208/6896689610_c639a8e1c5.jpg)
