I expected it to kick the Bugout out of my collection, but was pleasantly surprised to find that despite their evident similarities they overlap less than I thought they would. I can't remember where I saw/heard it, but someone said that it felt like with the Deka Hogue didn't set out to design a lightweight knife, but accidentally wound up making one -- whereas the Bugout was purpose-built to be ultra-light from the ground up. That alone sets them apart pretty nicely.

It's fantastic knife across the board, though. I especially like the scale milling and the compound grind. Which blade shape did you go for?

Good deal and I appreciate the comparison thoughts. I have owned a bugout for some time and it is indeed the go to ultra LW. Im normally a drop point kinda guy but ended up going with the wharnie as its just too cool with the compound grind and reminds me of my ZT 0055. The wharnie looks to be a favorite around here also.

Edgeoflife Edgeoflife your going to like the Deka congrats man! I saw that sale but didn’t click on it in fear I’d want another and I already have two with one becoming a safe queen but still want another lol. They come with these really nice storage/carry bags to that are really well made just like the knife :thumbsup: It’s really cool that no 2 g-Mascus scales are the same they all have a different pattern.

Lake time with the fam today and the police 4 LW.

Hope everyone is having a great Labor Day!
 
This field grade Bodega accompanied my five year old son and I on a fishing trip to a local pond. He was reeling them in one after the other so I wasn't able to get a pic from the pond. It was his best fishing trip to date and I couldn't be prouder.

Hope everyone is having a great Labor Day!

Where did you get that clip? Thanks.
It’s a MXG clip If I remember correctly but can’t remember which one. If you do a search it should come up on google and YouTube. Sorry wish I could be more help it’s for a ZT not sure which one. If I can remember I’ll edit the answer to your question :)
