........ I must have read that wrong....
I read it as: eight-pound..."Bass-scented panties".......
I was really starting to wonder about Guyon there until Norcal broke it down into "3" seperate terms.
I would love to vote for the AD. And the AD has almost everything just right for an AWESOME EDC blade. But, after two attempts, I just can't deal with the choil and Talon Hole in it's current configuration.
If the AD were made in a run with the Choil and Talon hole eliminated (or even highly modified to something similar) more like the following, it would rank VERY high on my go to knife list for MANY things including a fixed EDC option.
With current version of AD:
But, with the AD having the choil and Talon Hole as it is and with the unfortunate reality that I can't properly modify the current AD, I have to vote for other options.

This was a tough call for me. I usually have a SJTAC or a BATAC and either a AD, GW, or Cultie in my bag. I also keep a FBM or a Battle Rat in my vehicles.
I have carried my GWLE, my AD, or a cultie either in my pocket or on my belt.
The GW is the best for pocket carry, because it is just a little shorter. The AD and cultie are not really a problem for pocket carry.
The Cultie and GW are more sheeple friendly, but I do like the heft of the AD (not that I am worried about breaking the others).
The AD is a great utility blade and a good all rounder, but the GW is obviously better for skinning (not that I get to do much of that day to day).
The Cultie looks the coolest (but I almost always think that about the newer blades).
If I didn't have a larger blade in my bag, I would probably go with either the Meaner, the HRLM, or my DABA.
My dress up EDC fixed blade is my Giraff bone Cultie.
My office blade is my WMC (thinking about the snakeskin one).
My hunting small blade is definitely the GW (the orange one for hunting, but I think the LE is the best looking of the GWs).
My car camping, working around the garage/ house, blade is my AD.
My annoy my mother-in-law EDC is my FBMLE

What is my favorite?
I have no idea! It's like picking your favorite child
