Hi,
We are getting several inquiries in regards to the logos or lack of on the Scrapper 6. They are kept "sterile" or unmarked for military use. We do have the logos on the Scrapper 6 LE.
Questions, please feel free to e-mail.

I like logos, but I would not let the lack of a logo slow me down.
Right on Rich! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> I think the Scrap Yard Logo is pretty cool, and I would like it on my knives as well. However, I certainly would not let the lack of a logo stop me from ordering a knife from the Yard. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" /> Tom

I agree with you about no logo = no problem.....I know who made it and thats all that counts...but I just think it is a wicked cool looking logo.....Did I mention it would look good on a shirt!
Or a hat! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

I like beenie caps...not really a hat person.
GF - that's because you still have hair on your head and don't have to worry about sunburn! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> Besides, you would look funny with a propeller on top of your head! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

You Killing me this morning.....I will let them put the propeller on you Vulcan cap......I think then, they call them skull caps? And losing what is up there....strangly enough it is moving south...mainly my goattee.
Well, my face is clean shaven, partly in honor of my uncle who always said "with a face this pretty, you don't want to hide it with hair". That, and the fact that I don't grow a very good beard! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I have always preferred knives sterile... sounds funny... but I have never been one to wear much with a logo in general and like that to extend to my tools...plus the fact that it is sterile for Military use is cool in my mind.

Yeah military rules are retarted.....we had to cut the logos off our camelpacks.....no name brands!

I like the logo on my LE; it looks cool. Plus, the wife digs it, which made my getting yet another knife this past week a bit easier.
I would not not buy the regular model due to a lack of logo, but I would prefer it with.

Re: Logos - 09/20/06 07:36 AM
I prefer sterile. I've never really cared for logos on my stuff.
Normally, this is a mild preference, where I don't really care too much one way or the other. In the case of these knives, my preference is a bit stronger, because (no offense, Rat Finkenstein) I dislike the logo. It's drawn well and evocative, but I don't like what it evokes. I don't want some picture on my knife of an angry pitbull glowering and baring its fangs. I'm a happy-go-lucky nature photographer who just wants a good knife for when I'm adventuring in the great outdoors. This vision of anger, threat, and bloodthirstiness just doesn't suit me well.
Not really a big deal, but... given the option... I'll take sterile.

Hello Mike and Welcome! Glad to see you make it over here from the Swamp. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> I look forward to your posting some great pictures here.
As far as the logo, I like it because it represents the Company's name so well. As I said before, it will not alter my decision to buy a Yard knife one way or the other. Their quality and prices will. Tom <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

Logo rocks, but if keeping the logo off the combat grade is helping keep the price down and keeping it truely military grade (ie, sterile), I am all for it. Keep one ready to go for the troops. And as mentioned, the LE has the logo. We civies could use some 'urban gear' with the logo, tho.
Posted By: sr77dogg
Re: Logos - 09/21/06 12:28 AM
the logo is really cool-looking. I'm glad it's on the LE -- maybe they could make most of the CG sterile and put the logo on by request?

Re: Logos - 09/21/06 08:27 PM
Since the logo is featured on the pic of the knife on the combat grade, one might expect it to be there on the knife they order. If they come sterile might want to mention it, or post a pic of a sterile one. Just my 2 cents, i'd like to have the option, one with a logo would be nice.

We will continue to put the logo on all of our website picture knives. That way if the photo is copied and put on another site or forum, the readers of that forum will know where the knife came from. It's either that method or we can print our website over the top of the pic as many others do, which we don't prefer.
