The New Rat Mastiff (offered up by Swamp Rat) will be something like $218.95, IIRC... Having the DFLE the same priced (and especially higher) might throw SEVERAL "faithful buyers" over the fence, into the swamp and talking to Eric "The Bully" Issacson.... ...Just a thought; and, a word of caution... -CHEERS! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> HorizonSon, hmm.. very interesting, you bring up a very good point. If Dog Father LE and Rat Mastiff were priced similar.. what would you choose? Rat Mastiff has some neat things going for it. Really dig that unique (micarta) handle shape, SR-101 steel, plus i don't own any SwampRat choppers yet! JYD #5 "If you don't buy one now, you'll just kick yourself later.." -Karnack

I like Res C in big choppers. Micarta Handles like the Fusion Blister Maker are more for show than performance. The smooth, but not as pretty, micarta handles on the RTAK II makes more sense to me. I hope the DFLE is < $200. Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

Andy Wayne Junk Yard Dog Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 7,208 Madison County, Indiana	Quote i don't have anything in Satin yet! Me either! And I figure a nice big thick blade like the DFLE is a good first choice. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> Usually I like coated because they’re lower maintance, but an uncoated blade chops better with less drag. And I thought the logo would look cool on a big bad blade like the DF, and ya gotta get the LE to get the logo. JYD #4

Rich_S Pooch R Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 99	As Dan has mentioned, it's taking A LOT of time to polish those blades and time is money. I don't see how it could sell for under $200. I'm guessing $220-$240, and it's a steal at that price. I'm getting one.

All American or European made knives with polished blades are getting expensive. It is the hand labor. Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.
