Here's The Next Scrap Yard Model To Be Offered!!!!

Got It!!! . . . Here's A Pic Of The Next Scrap Yard Model To Be Offered!!!

Coming soon. . . within the week!!!

It's not a Scrapper 7 like most thought it would be. It's much cooler!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

We've been calling it the SOD (Son of a Dog father) <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

It has a 7 1/2” long SR-77 blade and is, by far, the coolest design I have ever seen with a Resiprene C handle! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

It will be offered in a Limited Edition with satin finish and 2 different combat grade finishes - All Black and all Desert Tan! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Renee <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Son of a <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

WoW!~ Logo or Sterile? and I see some with numbers?

Wow, that is so nice!!!!

No prices yet, or maybe an eta on when they'd be delivered?

Oh, yeah, I did pee myself, just in case you were in doubt.

Prices and details will be coming soon. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

thank you Renee <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

YEAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!! I bet nobody saw this coming!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />

I wanted the dfcg and camp tramp, this is like a fusion of the two! LE, CG black and tan!

Okay, I need a breather.

Thank you Renee!

Looks good, thanks for the heads up. [color:"red"] Will the CG versions have the logo? [/color]

Sign me up for one. I'll get you the money today, even if I have to donate blood to get it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I guess I picked a good time to check in. That is one sweeeet knife!

SICK!!!! i'm broke!!!!!

Renee, three critical questions.

1) the DFLE differs from the CGDF with respect to the height of the grind and weight. will these combat grades be any different from the LE aside from the crinkle finish? it looks like they do have different grind heights from the picks and the CG's are indeed heavier.

2) will they all include the logo?

3) can we have a comparison photo next to the other great blades of the same class from the clan (hell razor, 'weiler, tramp, sarQ, et cetera)?

I like it. If the price is right, I'll get one.

By the way, my choice would be desert tan without the logo. With due respect to Mike for a very high quality logo: I dislike the logo. I'm a happy-go-lucky nature boy who has some use for cutlery tools when I play outside; I find the angry, fang baring, snarling dog logo not at all to my taste.

i think i need a cigarette.

will this be sold under the new pre-offering, pay now, recieve later, everybody that wants one (or more) will be able to get one?

when i first saw the subject title i was sure it was another joke, then i saw who started the thread and couldn't move the mouse quick enough to click on it.

HOLY MOLY!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" /> WAAAAAAAAA HOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

YES, YES, YES, YES, YES, YES, YES, YES, !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

I LIKE IT! and I'LL TAKE IT! Err, Them! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Will these be available at Knob Creek? Just finished here at Lodi and may well be worth a trip down there!

be still my heart.......were do i sign??????????

Hell yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'll take two!!!!!!!!!!

Looks sweet!!!!!!!

I assume the blade thickness is .275?

SWEEEEEEEEEEEET!


How much? I gotta know, so I can figure how many organs I need to sell!

Is it wrong to want one of each?
<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/loopy.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

While I am excited that there's finally a new knife, I really like the heft of my Yardguard. This new offering, while extremely cool, looks like a Yardguard with a flat grind and no recurve. That makes it hard for me, a "starving college student," to buy on of these unless I sell off my Yardguard to help fund this purchase. Anyway, the tan is very tempting, but I'll have to wait and see if I still want one once the sale date comes along.

One question for [color:"red"] Renee[/color]:

Will the sale of this knife follow the new business plan or will I have to halt any plans and sit by the computer if I want to get one of these? Thanks!

That looks very cool especially the satin one !!!

Great christams gift for those looking for that type of blade !!!!!!

Darn it, right when I'm broke.

Sweet looking blade.

Wish I could see the pics. Have to wait till I get home. Thanks Renee.

Man I get wrapped up in work and look what I come back to. Nice. Very nice.

The size I'm looking for! The shape I'm looking for. It's between this blade and the new Bravo 2 depending on what the price and ease of delivery is.

this is the best blade offering ever I believe. cg for me. I can put a great edge on it for about 10 dollars at the local grinding shop and it will save lots of money. maybe the chopweiler reign will be short. all I need is a s9 now.

WOW, now that is what I am talking about, Renee, are these going to be sold via pre order giving us all a chance to get one <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" />
Dan, very well done sir, that looks beautiful <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Perfect! I said a shorter DF would rock. It looks even better than I imagined it would. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I really like the looks of it especially the LE. I will definatley want one.

As far as the specs, they will be coming soon! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

I do believe that the logo will be on the combat grade knives and the only ones that are numbered are the LE's.

I will check and see what we can do about a comparison photo.

As far as ordering these knives the new procedure will be used. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

These knives are absolutely GORGEOUS!!!!

That broad blade says "chopper" to me. And it looks so Scrap Yard. Not a Camp Tramp or a Sarsquatch, but finally a SYKCO camp knife, and well done at that. I'll have to get the LE. That's another good thing: It is available in three flavors. Something for everybody. This is really a much more impressive knife to me than the S7 prototype. Very, very nice.

Ok! I'll take one of each!

Has anyone noticed there are three times as many Dogs on the forum than normal right now? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> This may turn out to be a very popular offering <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" /> I'll be ordering a black one when the time comes <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />. I think this will give the Dog Father a run as my favorite knife <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" />

Get ready Rainwalker. I'll be needing leather again <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Kinda going for that 'Camp Tramp' look, which is a good thing!!

I don't have a "Camp Tramp" and don't plan on getting one so it works well for me <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />Here is the proud Father. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Cant wait for a family photo. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I like the logo better than Busse COMBAT etched on my blade. It makes it hard to explain to the nice officer that it's a camping tool, not a weapon when it says combat right on the blade. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Hey Ted,
Try explaining your Clax to an officer <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/loopy.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif" alt="" />

Those are SWEEEEEEEEET!!!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> I am anxious to see the specs. and pricing - I like ALL 3 !!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

I wouldn't have to. They would just shoot me as soon as they saw it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />

I like all three also PK, but unfortunately my budget will only allow for one. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Wow! That is very nice and looks like a great camp knife. Can't wait for ordering to go live.

This image is my desktop now!

Looks like my Dogfather will have a new puppy to train.

+1 to Dan the Man

ya, we do owe a thanksw to the scrap yard crew and dan. thanks!

Here here... many thanks!

Question is...will it be under two bills?

Doh! The more I look at the pictures, the more the feeling of "want" turns into "need." It just looks like a good and practical all purpose knife! The only problem is that I would need to sell something off to justify buying this! Again...DOH!

We have all been there. Start selling. I always have 2 or 3 knives that I would sell at a moments notice. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Any advice fellows.. on how I can sneak this one by my wife?

"What honey.. no.. of course not, that is not a new knife, really, I bought it years ago...."

I will be surprised if it's not well under two bills. At least for the CG models. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" />

"But Dear, it's a critical part of my camping gear!" <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Having done many stripping and sanding jobs, I will gladly pay the extra for a nice satin finish. It is easy for me to maintain and it looks great. I like the SOD LE. I like the DFLE. I like the DMLE. If I had one, I'd like the S6LE. I am so glad we have a choice in this model.

hahah, my dear will not be hearing about these.

I can't decide on tan or black. I know if I get one, I'll regret not getting the other. Heck, if the price is right, I may get both!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> The LE is looking really good too... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" />

Honey, I just got you a great kitchen knife, and I will hold on to it for you sweetie.

edited for spelling

Darkjedi... NICE!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Wise decision MRpink! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> When the S-6 was originally offered I was only going to get the CG model. Rooikat helped convince me to get an LE version as well, and I'm glad I did! I eventually got a tan one from Blade West, thanks to a great proxy. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

WOW!!!

It's a 7.5 Scrapper!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

I never saw the 2 Combat Grades coming!! A choice! WOW!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

This is wonderful news... and in time for Christmas too! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Well done Scrap Yard...very well done indeed! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bowdown.gif" alt="" />



Peace.


I am going to E-Bay and sell some knives I don't want,,,,Does anyone know if Scrap Yard takes Pay Pal yet?

EEEEEEEEEEEEEK! Shiney, tan and black.......Oh my!

O-yeah . Rene, if I could kiss you I would .
Yup I'm with you bro, x2. Even though the Aus$$$ is 70 cents ATM & on the downward slide <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif" alt="" /> . I MUST have at least 2, as my son will steal mine <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Whoever gets blade #36.......I WANT IT!!!!!!!!!!!

ha ha ha I like your style Tom <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> . What will be our excuse on all 3 <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

Boy Scout motto "Always be prepared"

That's why I need all Three. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Except that is has the thumb ramp like the YG, YH, DF, and DFLE. And it has the Squared off choil like the DFs. These features give the SOD that distinctive Scrap Yard look.

I'm in for an LE <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Ohhhhhh Renee

Can we order our JYD#s

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Folks, this is going to be the SY blade that all others are measured by from this point forward. This is going to be the .30-06, Ford Mustang, well, you get the idea.

Very well done Dan!

Now to decide on how many, which ones, and how to pay for them...

i want 2!! one black and one tan!!

Hmmm, three excellent models, and people wishing to get the JYD #s, perhaps at any cost.....?


Most Excellent!

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/loopy.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

ROFLMAO! Sorry Guys, I couldn't resist! LOL! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Scrapyard has always taken Paypal. That was one of my secrets to always being in the top 5 orders. All you had to do was select Paypal and your order number was generated. Then you could take your time to fill out the PP page. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I'm in, it looks great. Like a Scrapper 7.5 in a way.

Wooo, glad I checked in today lol, some good news, le and tan for me <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Horn Dog, I can distinctly remember you saying multiple times that the sensible thing to do is offer these choices. They might have heard you, man!

Other thing is, I'm back to hitting the frickin' 'f5' key, because I've been trained to jump when the order command comes...

Downright Sexy


yeeeehaaaaa

How many LE's are usually made? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Very nice, either a Tan or LE for me.

Thank You Renee for giving us something before Christmas, I think this will be a quick sell out.

Boy oh boy. Thought I'd be able to resist.. Oh, well. LE all the way for me. Should be approx. $110 for the CG and $150 for the LE based on the S6 and DF? What you guys think?

I was thinking more along the line of $129.95 for the CG's and $159.95 for the LE's....

....but I like your thinking better <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

SWEET!

good looking knife

oh no,now i have color options.

i want satin & tan but only need one.hell,when it comes to sharpened steel i dont really NEED anything.

i think this blows the S7 out of the water completely.i wasnt looking forward to the S7 at all but am totally in love with this design.

everyone swore up and down that they knew the S7 was next and dan really through the yard for a loop.good job dan.

this knife is sure to be a scrapyard and busse kin legend to be revered.the SFNO and any other 7in blade about to rear its head in the near future is gonna have its work cut out for it.

absolute grand slam with the knife itself,then you add 3 color scheme selections and this is legendary.

this is only a difficult choice if the CG is heavier than the LE, as was the case for the 10" DF. if they're all the same, it's LE for me. otherwise, i may opt for the heavier CG in black.

may have to get both.

LE's too?

Thank you Bruce, and I'm sure Renee thanks you too with so many people concerned that this one won't be part of the new business plan.

This will be my first Scrapyard, and as I said before, I almost gave up on the hope of ever getting one.

(I know I could have gotten one on the secondary market, but it was very frustrating to know that many were buying straight from SY at half the secondary market price. I couldn't do it.)

I'll be honest, I would have gotten whatever they released... but I can't be more thrilled with this one, it's exactly what I've been looking for!

I already had Jeff put me down for some kydex pants!

Booyah!

I would assume so, they did the SwampRat HC LE like that.

I think I like the new blade, but it is a lot like my YardGuard. If the price is right, I will be in for the LE... Good new offering and great to have choices...

The only reason I would get a LE version is because I do not have anything that size in a satin finish, but the Tan sure looks great.

I guess I can't have to much Tan.

no one else thinks the tan looks soft and girly? it's like a pale taupe. maybe wheat or fallow? it's the new pink.

From the photos it appears that maybe the CGs are high saber grinds. The LE is clearly a full flat grind. In that case, the LE is likely slightly thinner at the spine and a bit lighter. We will know soon when the specs are posted. They may be the same. It is hard to tell from the pics, but that's how it looks to me. I'm going for the LE, myself. I think it is beautiful.

ohh oh, #24 is UnSubs JYD number, what till he see's this! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

Vic I was thinking the same thing judging by the grind line out in front of the handle. If so I need one of each!

this is the s7 I imagined

I'm with Vic, LE all the way (or at least first) <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

that was said in jest.

JYD rule number 37: always take a dose of salt with Magnums post! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

Thinking it over for a while I don't think it's a good idea for me to get two. Trying to budget since I'm going to pick a SA180 plus all the belts and a pikal knife. I don't think I can make a decision...

It is beautiful.

I'm at school and the computers have these screen protectors on them that tint the screen, is the tan SOD's blade sage or is it actually tan? How about the YK's blade, sage or tan? I could tell the handles are defintely tan, but can't say on the blades.

LOL and a very good point. Kind of hard to deliver that message with strait face

Dan

hey Dan, thanks for bringing us the SOD, it's everything I was hoping for!

Dan - the SOD is a great model! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> Now, if you would tell us the prices and availability it would be even BETTER !!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

For what its worth, The LE is just flat out "Fine" its hard to say more...The Tan is absolutely amazing in looks and is probably the coolest looking knife that we have made (in my humble opinion)... the black has that military presence pouring from it. You will also not believe the feel once you handle them...it is as if I built the knife in your hand while you waited.

Dan

I tend to think you are right. These blades are destined to be legends. I appreciate the kind words...Thanks

Dan

I just had to go back and look at those pictures again! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> I LOVE what I see!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> DEFINITELY a grand-slam out-of-the-park home-run!!! YEAH' BABY YEAH' !!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

In due time <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Dan

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" />

Tonight, I will lock my eyelids open with duct tape and sleep in front of the computer screen. My trained hamster (Kenshiro, a.k.a. fist of death) will tap the reload button once each hour and alert me if there are signs of this fine blade for sale. Yes, Kenshiro can read English and html.

Scrap Yard staff for President, all of them.

Well boys, what economy woes....well cut our way out?

Dan,
I like the blades. Nuff said! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

A trained hamster...has to be a first in the Yard. How does it get along with Dogs?

Hey my moto for president could be an "economy that is based on the Performance to Price Ratio, a case of beer in every fridge, a bottle of Makers on every desk and knife on every belt. We could have one heck of a party <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Dan

Well said

Dan

You would win for sure!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

just gotta kill or detain all the sheep, first.

Have it shipped to a friend, or get a P.O. box. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" />

i say talk to your woman.

I just got back from the best couple days of motorcycle riding ever (in the Sierras) and what do I find! The SOD rocks! Sign me up. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Man I'll probably be in for the black.
All things being equal I usually prefer satin finish, but I don't know, the picture of the black version is just saying something to me.

So is this knife as thick as the Scrapper 6???? I will be getting one of these in BLACK CG!!!!! IF this thing is as thick as the S6, I might have a new favorite knife... That would mean it would be as tough as the mighty mighty S6!!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Thinking the same thing. I dare say it would be pretty beefy, maybe .275".

The CG does look like a serious rig, but that LE looks classic. Arhhhh 7.5" of greatness. Very cool Scrap Yard Co <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

Holy Moly <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" />!!!! I think you out did your self on this one Dan. I will definitely be having at least one of each. They look perfect!

is this the first tan scrapper not being called a "military over run"??........
not that it matters.just an observation.

something for thought.i really like the tan and i really like the satin too and i think a tan res-c handle on a satin LE blade would be really cool and a scrapyard first.

i think swamprat may have done it with a BR or something,not sure.

i might just sell my S6 now,seriously and its not because i have too either.i just know this one will replace it a lot of the time.

good lord,someone created something that could replace my CW also.

and not to be negative but any thoughts of getting a bravo 2 are out the window for me although it would've been a bravo 2 over an S7 interestingly enough.

way to go scrapyard,again.

i've probably never been so excited about any of the releases since i came along and i got here just in time for the YH & YG

choices choices. my first though was one of each of the cg's. but if the le is a full grind, and not too much more, i may go tan and le. i remember how everyone raved about the DFLE when it came out.

Sweet looking blade! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

I might just have to break down and buy a Scrap Yard knife after all... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

Very cool Dan!

Looks like a bad boy!

R

Choice is not a problem with me. I've learned from the older Dogs. I'm buying a truck load of these scrappers. Gonna have to get a bigger safe. Invest in Wall Street??? I'm investing in the Yard <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" />

As a newer Dog, I can't explain how great this news is. If my tail hadn't been docked it would be knocking out everybody and all the furniture!

i can't wait to see how thick this thing is o.o

I just have to tell you that you rock! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

KENKEN - Howdy and Welcome to the ScrapYard! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> You picked an excellent time to join us, and what a terrific new model to purchase! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

We aim to please! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Highly like it will be .275 or .250 inches.

I have to completely agree. It's so nice to know that as soon as they put it up ("within the week" thanks Renee!) I'll put in my order and finally be able to relax a bit.

Feels good.

Ok, here's one question, and it's a dumb one but I gotta ask...

If the CG versions need the coating to protect the blades, what's protecting the blade of the LE? Why doesn't the LE (with the same steel) need the coating?

Anyone?

Any SR77 can rust. A lot of the Dogs have learned to prevent that problem with proper blade care. Others like myself just like the looks of the coated blade and the extra rust prtection it offers. Also some Dogs prefer the full height grind of the LE models to the sabre grind of the CG models.

I have a DMDC and keeping rust off of it hasn't been a problem.

The coating is put on the blades for those who want it as something to prevent over-excessive wear and tear on the blade, as well as assisting in rust and corrosion of the blade. Eventually, the coating will "thin" in areas and show the steel of the blade. The satin finish is there for those of us who like "shiny" blades; this of course means more care must taken to oil the blade to help prevent any degradation of the steel.

Of course, I've had the DMLE absolutely soaked for an entire weekend in the woods (miserable rain!), and only noticed a vague hint of brownish rust on the blade edge. Dans' steel seems to deflect rust better than most on the market today, and it's not even a stainless! Very good steel!

Besides those advantages, SY doesn't need to spend as much time making the steel under the coating nice = less labor = less money for us.

yeah, you're lucky, took me almost a year to get my DMCG, and that's in the secondary market.

Plus One! Welcome to the Yard, KENKEN. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Very good timing indeed! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Oh the agony of waiting <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sad.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/loopy.gif" alt="" />.

I was hoping for a mid-size camp knife, and what do you know ... SY delivers!!!

Talk about ask and ye shall receive.

Thank the knife gods.

Thank you gents, that's what I needed to know.

Of course it makes it harder to choose..!

My wife would stab me with the extra one if I got both! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sad.gif" alt="" />

newDOGma, read this post:

http://www.scrapyardknives.com/ubbthread...ee7df3d3813d369

It should put your mind at ease about getting the LE model if you like it better.

I'll buy one of each. Then a dozen roses for my wife, so she doesn't leave me. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Jackell, that was a good review! Nice pics!

Jackel, you're a champ!

That's a sweet review.

So basically, when the coating rubs off, I'm going to have to take the same care as with the LE model?

Sounds like the coating puts off more attentive maintenance for a time.

Cool.

After every outside use, I clean and oil my knive, and put some mineral oil on the micarta handle, I also tried it on the G-10 handles, not the same, but still put a shine on it. I'm going to buy some of those Tuff Cloth and see how they do.

this is going to be a tough decission for me, I have always wanted a Tan Scrapyard, however I plan on using this one so the LE is the logical choice. Hopefully the price is low enough I can get both, if not I will end up getting the Tan one.

All of the models in this offering look like full height flat grinds to me. Saber Grind, What tha....?

That is a great new addition !

Must resist tan... Must resist tan...


Arrrggghhh, I suspect resistance is futile..

We won't know for sure until the actual specs are posted. It's almost impossible to tell from the pictures. Myself and some others have speculated that the CG models are sabre grinds based on past offerings.

I don't think anyone will be disappointed if all three models are full height flat grinds <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

That is exactly what I am hoping for, full flat goodness

satin finishes don't rust too easy, and they last longer and cut better!
I say go for it.
I think the coating will prevent rust (though the edge is still exposed) for a short time, and a coating may look more "cool" but I personally would go with a satin finish!
<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Tan SY knives rock. I have a S6 and a hook in tan. they are wicked good looking.

I think it would be great if they are all full flat goodness. but looking at the pics, and specifically the "grind line" it's easy to trace the le model all the way to the spine, but the cg's fade out 2/3 - 3/4 of the way up. i'm thinking it's a high sabre grind.

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one feeling the compelling need to buy one of the SOD's in Tan. Ever since getting the Tan YK, I've started to like 'em. I'll still have to get one in LE though; just to match one up to the DFLE I've got. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I want a tan one mainly because even after the coating wears, I will send it off and have a nice satin finish put on it and I will have a satin finished/tan handled blade from Scrapyard.....

on rust, the good thing is no matter how much is sucks if you get some... it doesnt affect the toughness of the steel from what i have gathered...

this may turn out to be my favorite knife of all time. when is this thing going to be released?!?!?!?!?!

She mentioned this week, but if I understand things right that means they will be taking pre orders this week and then there will be probably 4 weeks or so before they are ready to go.... anyone know if I am right?

renee....we need a BUY IT NOW price........lol

That is just what I have been waiting for. A big scrap yard knife. It looks really tough, like a junk yard dog. Thanks Renee and Dan. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

They never said it would take 4 weeks, or that it wouldn't. They said they would have a model or two available to order for 4-6 weeks before they will stop orders on that knife. That way, say you don't order one the second they put it up (like I and a hundred others will I'm sure!) you can place your order in the next couple weeks and still get one.

As far as how long it will take to get it to your house, that isn't known yet (by us at least) and there very well may be a bunch of them ready to go for the first several orders with the remaining orders being filled as the knives are produced.

Basically, until more info is given we shouldn't assume it will take 4-6 weeks or longer to get a knife, and we shouldn't assume that it won't.

I seriously don't think, though, that SY is going to wait until the 4 weeks is up and then say, "Welp, lets get the total. Ok, so that's 10,000? Ok, fire up the grinders!"

But I could be wrong. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

I believe you are wrong, that is how Swamp Rat did it, and I would be willing to bet that is how the yard will do it. They need to know how many knives to produce of each color scheme before fabricating them. I hope I am wrong but highly doubt it. Either way that is fine, just to know I will have it before Christmas makes me happy and gives me more time to save up the cash <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I'm cool either way, the fact that I'll know I'm getting one is enough for me...

...

But I hope I'm not either. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I tend to agree; I figure they've already started making some, knowing they'll sell at least that amount, and as more orders come in, they'll make more. Say, every time they get 20 orders (or 50, or whatever number they decide), they start making them; next group of orders and so on and so forth.

With this group of hungry dogs, I'm betting Dan has got about 50 to 100 of each already made, knowing they'll sell here or at one of the knife conventions he goes to; it's the way I'd plan it with a fine product like he has, and a faithful and eager customer base just waiting for it.

That's my hope as well anyway. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

that would be awesome, Dan clearly hit a home run with this model and I about as excited to get another Scrapyard blade as I have ever been. Should be really cool, I might get 2, one to sit on and admire and one to beat on and abuse....

Good idea Bill! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

thank you all for the warm welcome!

I'm ready to order 2 of these !!

Yeah, I'm probably gonna do that to. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

(I say as if I have no choice in the matter.)

How long do you figure it takes to make a blade anyway?

I honestly have no idea? Is some of the process relatively automated or run on machines, perhaps the inital cutting/shaping?

Sorry.. newbie qeustion again.

Brad

Sure you have a choice:

Buy one, be miserable because you don't have a spare.
Buy two, be miserable because you're unsure if you picked the right two.
Buy three, one of each style, but not spares of each style
Forget four or five, buy 6, have pretties to look at, AND one of each style to play with!

Or, you can buy 3 of them, use one, save one as a safe queen and keep the third one for about 6 months and sell it on the exhange for an inflated price to help pay for the 2 you are keeping <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

based on past sales i'm sure DAN and the folks at SCRAPE YARD have a good idea about production...........its a business after all.....might have to work some over time though.....i hope

Hmmmm yes you see well <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> . But realistically for me ATM, I'm in for 2. One for the boy & myself. Ad's took one look at these SOD's, looked at me with that look kids give their parents. And said, "MUMMA". But that's going to happen after your 10 year old cuts his teeth on Scrap Yard knives <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> . His collection(YKCG & DMDC) is yearning for an SOD <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

If only I lived in the US, man I would buy up big. Six, yeah I like that <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Now to work out how to pre-order off ScrapYard Co, once these go up. I've never "PRE-ORDERED" before <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> . Hope the different time zone doesn't screw me <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" />

tick tick tick tick tick, were all a little closer..........soon i'll join the brotherhood.....i'm all choked up.....its like the birth of a child........i'm so happy........

Wow! Now that was somehting that I did not expect!!! Good work Dan! Unfortunately I will have to sit this one out.

none of us outsiders knows Brad, it's a Busse secret; personally I think they have elves mellowed up on Johnny Walker Blue doing everything!

Elves!!! Ha!! Perhaps dwarves as well?

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

They have a large machine. They pour a mixture of iron and carbon and some trace metals in one hopper, and recycled Schwinn handle bar grips in another hopper, and five minutes later a new Scrap Yard knife comes out. All they need to do is count them and turn the machine on and off. And shovel the coal. A huge coal-fired mechanical computer with lots of wheels and gears does all the rest. I hope that helps.

Or you can buy 3, wait 6 months, sell the other two and you have a free knife.

Ahhhh, but which of the three would you keep (LE, Black, or Tan?), and be sure you wouldn't second guess your decision a couple months after selling the other two, Hmmm?

Okay, I may not be Renee who is in awe of you Dogs but I do have the pricing. The Black model and the Tan will sell for the same prices with the LE being more due to the additional hand work that goes into each blade

Dan

HAHAHAHA!!!

I love you, man. Seriously, that is funny. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

how much would that be? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Look, when a Dog Father and a Dumpster Mutt love each other very much, they...

Um, well, ok, it's kind of like a "love handshake"-

...

You know what, ask your mother!

This will be my first buying from the store, knive that is.

any Sheath in the store that will fit this? or it will come out when the knives are available?

Rainwalker will have all the SOD sheaths one could ask for. He's the candyman <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

I am glad you caught it...check out the thread on SOD pricing...Black $119.95, Tan $119.95, LE $159.95 + shipping and handling

Dan

Thanks for the update Dan!!! Im getting a Black CG model!!!! woohoo!

You will be very happy...I am very pleased how this design came out <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Dan

Me too Dan, me too!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I am pleased as well Dan but my DFLE is looking a little pissed. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" /> Jealous perhaps? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bowdown.gif" alt="" />

The wife saw what I was looking at and just laughed. She then reminded me that I have my trip to Alabama (Bama v. Ole Miss) coming in November, followed by Xmas and then a skiing trip to Jays Peak.

She thinks she is funny. Little does she know that I created a slush fund, one even the sleaziest politician would be proud of, to provide for my "Doggish Needs." We'll see who laughs last! Of course, then I have to hide them .... I need a bigger safe.

The only real question is, can I pull off one of each?

Can't decide, I might have to pick up all three. I like the sabre on the CG and the full flat on the LE equally well. Good times ahead <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> .

Hmm, seems like a reasonable design, but I wouldn't buy it with use in mind. Its pretty, and the design is nice looking, but I wouldn't rate its functionality nearly as high as the Camp Trap or Chopweiler. For one thing, thumb ramps like that just get in the way, especially if you're doing bushcraft. All of the knives I have to include that feature are seriously limited in their functionality because of it. The exception is the RMD, but it's ramp is not nearly as severe as this one. There's a ton of wasted space in the ricasso, I'm not really sure why... I guess that kinda a signature of the SY line. I'm also not sure why the choil is so large and squared. I know this is to show its linage relating back to the DF, so I guess I would have the same questions about that knife's design. On the plus side, it would be better for slashing (lighter than a CW) and also better at chopping through concrete blocks (being S7). If machete work or concrete management is your thing, this knife looks perfect. For woodland bushcraft, I'm glad I got my CW when I did.

Just my reflections based on using such knives in practical, wilderness settings. Take it or leave it. After all, a lot of wild opinions do exist. Just look at the people who think partially serrated knives are better for survival <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />

Well C&D, to each their own! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> I have a LOT of knives of different designs and manufacturers, and each one appealed to me for one reason or another. And bushcraft KNOWLEDGE is more important to me than the search for the "perfect" bushcraft knife. Imagine a Chopweiler with a Resiprene-C handle - much like KnifeGuy's concept "Scrapweiler". THAT would be sweet! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

No messing with the SOD - it's just FINE the way it is!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

gahlee, i cant wait to get ahold of this piece of sr77!!!!

I'm just happy another SY pup has been born, & it's looks great <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Reconseed...you brought politics into the yard. Guess I'll have to find an avatar for 'retired GI's for McCain/Palin.'

keep it clean, guys (with the politics)

Anyway, yes Pvt. Klink you're absolutely right. Getting it perfect is only important for your number one tool: your brain. There's a lot more wiggle room for your number two tool: the knife

I don't mean to bash the yard, and the SOD seems like one of the best camp knives out there. Enjoy them, and give them lots of use for me!

Excellent point! Reconseed - would you please change your avatar?

Funny avatar, Private Klink. Did not notice it until now. You ought to enlarge it for us sight impaired folks...

just scored a Yard Hook on knifeforums.com few days ago and now I was able to order a SOD LE... yups, all in all it has been a good week for this Flemish kid <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I am probably going to put my YH up for sale as the SOD LE is set to take its place in my BOB. I favor the light recurve, but the hook does not enchant me like it once did. In fact, it kinda gets in the way.

Hey Dan/Renee, Did we ever get the grind heights on the SODs figuered out? Full Height or Sabers?

Sure looks like full flat for the LE and a low sabre for the CG.

Is this knife, or any other Scrap Yard, differentially heat treated?

Regards,
Toast

Nice! See what happens when I've been sick for a few days? I come back and find this!

Ordered an le earlier today, will be my first scrapyard blade, looking forward to it.

Ordered the tan. This is my second Busse-Kin after my RatManDu and my first Scrap Yard. Should be fun.

Welcome aboard Toast, the RMD is an awesome knive, one of my best. I'm sure you will love the SOD.

Toast - Howdy and Welcome to the ScrapYard! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> The RMD is a great little knife, and the SOD is destined to be a classic!!! Great choices. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Tom

Having just raked in a load of full-sized Dogfathers, I don't know if I'm going to order SODs. I'm still considering it. However, Steel Fan and I spoke about how he likes to carry a knife, horizontal along the small of the back, and it seems that the SOD would be better-sized for that style of carry. I believe a full-sized DF might stick out on the sides.

please be saber... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" />

Dern! I still have to wait till the 15th to order the S.O.D. Then it will be like 6 or more weeks till they ship, correct??? Well i guess that will give me plenty of time to order the kydex for the sheath.

It's more like 6 weeks from the day they hit the store.

Toast, Welcome to the Yard

Welcome, Toast! Toast in the morning is one of my fave breakfasts...

Really great looking blade. Haven't been on in awhile so did i miss this release?

No, you got about another 5 weeks to get on board.

[censored] , This knife looks like the answer to my S6 craving. Im flat broke at the moment in the process of getting my job back i hope.

Wonder if anyone here would buy an extra one and hold on to it for a couple months till i can scrape up the funds?

hahaha me too

Pretty cool.

Nice!

Everyone who comes to my office asks about it.

I, of course, tell them the story!

Good luck on getting that job.

I'm pretty tight on funds right now as well bro, but if nobody can get you before they pull the knife, I'll spot you.

Hello everyone, I am considering getting my first good fixed blade and I have a question.

Does anyone know if the edge is 7 1/2” or is that just the blade size? It seems like there's a good inch or more of blade without an edge on it so I'm curious as to what the usable edge length is.


Thanks!

Welcome blan. If you are talking about the SOD, Blade: 7.5", OAL: 12.5".

What he meant was cutting edge. We won't know for sure until it gets into our hands, but the DMCG is stated 5" blade, but actual cutting edge is close to 4.25". So I'd imagine the SOD with a 7.50" blade has about a 6.75" cutting edge. Hope that helps.

Thank you MRpink, that is what I meant.

Does anyone know the cutting edge length for the dog father?

It seems that the SOD has the same choil length so we could just subtract the Dog Father's choil length from the SOD's overall length to get a good estimate of what the SOD's cutting edge will be.

im waiting to see a SOD torture test from Noss <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> I bet the SOD stands up to just as much as the S6 did <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> what do ya think?

blan, sorry no DF in front of me right now. I can measure it when I meet up with the norcal chopping crew sometime next week, but if you want an answer right now, start a new thread.

recon, it'd be interesting to see. The s6 is fatter, but the CG SODs do sport a saber grind.

Will Do

Really?

Yeah, take a look at the last few posts of page 4 in "SOD pricing"

Did just that right before coming here. This makes the decision so much more difficult!! hahahaha

I wonder what is next...

it is so worth the wait

Unless it is five long, arduous weeks...

9.1 inches of actual edge on the original production DFCG. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Does that differ from the edge length of the DFLE?

I am so torn on this knife. I can't decide if I like the LE or the black, or if I should save my money for whatever is next.

Black CG then polish the bevels! leave the ricasso well alone though.. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

That does sound cool...

That peened drunken look would suit the SOD just dandy...

Even Jesus would shell out the cash for a Drunken SOD...

WOW...I already ordered mine and I'm so stoked! Can't wait to get that thing in my hands!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Are they differentially tempered?

You could do something like this.





Nope, not scrapyard knives, Sr-77 don't need to like most Sr-101 knives.

Man I love that convexed Mutt. I recently stripped my DMCG of it's blackness and will be sending it off to Bark River for the Barkie Spa Treatment. I have a Harbor Freight sander but I just don't have the skills yet to put an edge like that on it. In fact, before I stripped it, I messed up the tip on my Mutt but managed to fix it with a file. It's very dull now but I've seen what Bark River can do and have faith that it will be a fine slicer when I get it back.

I thought the DFs are differentially tempered? then again i could be wrong too.. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

Mr. Pink,
Did Ban put that edge on that knife, if not who. That is really nice. Makes it one sharp inde <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />structable knife!

Hmm...I don't think they are. I believe that all the SY knives so far have been through hardened, but I could also be wrong too. I don't recall people ever mentioning a hamon (usually caused by differentially tempered knives) on the DF.


Yeah, that is Ban's doing. The mutt can pop hair.

thanks for clearing it up for me. I was a bit confused with how scapyard knives work. In either case the SOD should be hell of a knife for the price.

Perfect example of a great Yard user! No slicing resistance due to the polished bevel and no rust under the res-C either with a little luck..

Nice job Mr Pink! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bowdown.gif" alt="" />

Awesome knife! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

yea reallly awesome knife!!

Hello all. Ordered a SOD Tan the other day, and cant wait to get my hands on that BAD BOY. Anyone else ordered up a Tan?

I couldn't decide which one I like more...so I ordered both...Now I want a LE SOD too...

I am going to order up a tan one as soon as I remember where I put my Visa card... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" />

REM762 - Howdy and Welcome to the ScrapYard! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> I ordered one of each - they are totally cool! Congratulations on ordering a SOD, as I believe they will be classics! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

renee, how much longer do i have?

Thanks dude. I feel that all Scrap Yard knives will be classics, and worthy of being handed down to the kids one day.

Welcome REM! I couldn't decide between black or tan, so I ordered both.

Welcome to the pack, REM. I just recently acquired my first two scrappers, a Yard Keeper CG and a Mud Puppy LE, through Dog Bowls. You don't want to know what a DB is (although it is challenging, exciting, and immediate shipment)! I have the Tan and the LE SODs on order!

I think we got less than 3 weeks now!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Thanks guys. I have wanted a Yard Hook, or Yard Guard for a while, but cant find any new in box. The new SOD's look KICK [censored], and cant wait to get my hands on mine. Any body want to sell me a Yard Hook or Guard? Thanks. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

You need to checkout BFE for the YH or YG.

Ebay has them too.

Thanks for the help. I will do some searching. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Hey the SOD is the first Scrapyard knife i've owned. i've been lurking around this site for some time and finally decided to register. after seeing some of the modifications that some members have done to their other knives, im intrested in finding out what, if any, modification that any of you have planned for your SOD? I ordered a Black/Black and i plan on stripping the blade, convexing the edge, and grinding down the thumb choil on the spine to make it a bit more streamlined. i also may reprofile the clip point like horn dog did with his Sarsquach(sp?)

JTS - Howdy and Welcome to the ScrapYard! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> I don't plan on any modifications to my SOD's - I like it just the way it is!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Welcome to the Yard, Jac The Slayer. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Good luck on the Mods once you get your SOD, sounds interesting. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

welcome to the forums, can't wait to see what you do with your SOD <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Just ordered mine, a CG black. On Halloween no less.

Hope it's spooky on arrival.

congrats, it is hard to resist that size blade at that price especially one that looks like that <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> now for the hard part.... the waiting game <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif" alt="" /> that is okay though, I still have a few more posts to rack up before I get my knife

Does anyone know if the SOD's will still be available after Christmas?

Yeah, on the secondary market. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/loopy.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> Seriously though, They probably will be releasing a date soon of when sales will no longer be available on this model.

yeah...according to the new business plan the SOD will be available for roughly 6 weeks. Buy one now if you want one!!

Good suggestion, and words to the wise! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

This will be the perfect blade for campers, hikers, whatever

Not too short to be a decent chopper, not too long/too heavy to carry on a long hike. And the price is just right! (for the CG)

I emailed and was told that the SOD will only be around for another week or two as of the 12th of Nov.

Man the more I look at that Black SOD, the more and more I care about nothing else.... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
