Has there been any talk or implications of a 6"+ bladed knife coming out of the swamp any time soon? We've had several "teeny" offerings as of late. I'll be in the market for a large Busse/Kin blade soon and it would be nice to fill out the SR101 portion of my collection.
 
We can only hope so!! They really need to bring something in the 6"-9" range for some heavy duty use.
 
Good luck!! I got so tired of waiting to find an sr101 chopper that I had one forged for me out of frustration.
 
I hope there is one in the forseeable future it's been forever and a day since swamp rat has made a chopper.
 
Look for a Taz Rat on the exchange. I picked one up recently and its one beast of a blade!

The Ratmandeux LE's are still available at the Swamp Rat store as well...
 
The Taz Rat is in that range...

The Taz Rat just doesn't do it for me in the looks dept. I know many people say it's great and feels good in the hand, but if I don't like the way a knife looks then it's a no go for me.

Same here. I have plenty of knives for just about every task. The only reason I'll ever buy another knife is if something wows me or looks too cool to pass up.
 
Pop over to the KhukRat thread and maybe we can make it happen!!! Tell your Friends.

I think any future big knives will only be sold at shows like the Taz Rat. When it comes time to put the money down there is a lot more of a market for $100 knives than $300 knives. Hope I'm proven wrong though. A KhukRat would be sweet. If it's going to be another small blade a SwampMuk would be nice. The Busse offering was too rich for my blood.
 
I think my hopes and dreams will always be the same on this one:

M7 (Mischief 7)
Blade Length 7 1/2
Overall Length 13 1/4

Strictly a WAG on my part leatherman. A 6-7.5" blade would not surprise me. A big blade to me is 9" on up and if one does show up in the store for all to order I will happily eat crow.
 
I'll take an M6 in .188" please... please please please! With the recent string of practical designs that have come from SwampRat, I think the next reasonable choice is a larger combat utility/survival knife.
