Very cool - great shaped blade.

Not a knife but I'll post it.
Arriving Friday.
I had 140 in my PayPal account and figured why not get a new blade. Thought about what to get for a few days and decided on a sword. I used to have an actual katana with WWII officer dressings but sold it to fund a wedding.
Heard good reviews about that company and I will give an honest review when it arrives but stoked to have a "functional" sword again!

I have not been keeping up with ScrapYard or Blade Forums, but I checked tonight because I got an email notice they are releasing a ScrapYard 6.25" blade in INFI with a large res-c handle, which sounds cool... also I saw that 1111's are in-stock - that's unexpected too. Great blade if you want a large utility blade/chopper.

I hope this doesn't violate any cross forum posting rules, fut for the knife nuts here, you might want to check out The Gathering 2017, other wise known as GIV:

https://www.usngathering.com/

I've been to all eight previous Gatherings and if you have any inclination towards Tac folders or fixed blades and can get away Labor Day Weekend and show up, you'll find it an awesome time!

Lots of cool knives, plenty of flashlights and a bunch of other stuffs.

If you're coming, PM me with cell info and lets arrange to get a beer. I'll buy!

Busse / SYKCO INFI DOG Soldier 6.25" blade is live now, and they also are offering the $250 and $500 grab bags again. Grab bags are usually pretty awesome and you can easily sell items you don't want.

INFI and Res-C is a combo that's pretty hard to beat. I like that blade shape and the fuller is a nice touch too. I do wish Busse and company would give you a choil-less option on more of their designs though. I'd probably be all over it.

Yeah this one has something for $18 called the snagless custom choil... whatever that is. One of the pics looks like it might be a choil similar to the Military Regulators.

^^^^
I just thought about it. Maybe the knife is choiless unless you choose the snag free choil for $18. Worth asking about or you could probably look on Blade Forums. In that case, the pics might just be of the version with choil.

I actually prefer a choil on most. I wish my FFG American Regulator had one.

No, I think the "snag free" choil is just them making the transition from choil to cutting edge a bit more subtle. You can see the difference in the photos; they have a close-up of the snag free one.

I like a choil on some knives too but prefer it when the choil starts in the handle (such as on the Blackheart Gunner-12) instead of entirely on the blade. That Infi Dog Soldier is still definitely a pretty sweet knife in my opinion and I'd consider picking one up (desert bronze on black would look killer) if I didn't have all my disposable income tied up in a DDM4V7 SLW at the moment.

Gotcha, yeah that's like the Mil Regulator style choil. Definitely comfortable but looks weird compared to a traditional choil like on the Parkerized Regulators, Ratweilers, etc... On that INIFI Dog it eats up 1/4" cutting edge.

Yeah if anything I'll sell a few. Not looking to buy any myself.
