WD, on the whole life is good. The weather has been a bit foul the last couple of days, but not as bad as some of you guys have had. I haven't ordered a Dogfish yet, everytime I think a little skelly necker is a good idea a quick play with my BATAC puts me off exposed metalwork. Still they (Dogfishes) are cool so it's probably just a matter of time!

OK guys - I'm trying to decide what fixed blade to attach to my (mini BOB, PSK, EDC Survival Kit, whatever).
Right now, I have my Ontario Rat TAK in D2 steel, plain edge, in a Jeepsrock Kydex sheath (its great - as small as it can be and straps right to the outside of my kit).
My other options for knives in that same size grouping are:
2. Busse Badger Attack TAC (BATAC) - its a little bit larger than the TAK, still 3/16 thick, but INFI - my Okuden sheath is a little large though...
3. Scrapyard Dumpster Mutt - not a cutter - but indestructible - SR77 - I've thought hard about swapping the Mutt in, but it really, really, isn't a cutting chore knife. Could do lots of batoning with it...
4. Ontario RAT-5 - 1095 steel - this is the knife I'd like to have, but its got a cordura sheath and won't really attach to my kit well.
5. I have the Koster Bushcraft knife on order - but that could be quite a wait. We'll see how it stands up next to the others when it gets here.
I do have a Victorinox OHT inside my kit. I always have a big chopper and saw in my vehicle, but I might not have access to it if I'm out on a hike and need my kit.
Any opinions? I want the blade that will stand up to hard use and function well, and still be relatively compact. The TAK should be good, Dice. D2 is a great steel for a knife that size. The Yard Keeper or DM should be a good choice, too. You can make a DM sharp.
Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.
