didn't know that, don't even know why I'm kinda surprised by it. can't imagine the logic in law making where a big knife with a d guard can be perceived as more deadly than one with a regular guard. guess it's cause ya can also smash someone to death besides stabbing, without harming your hand as much while doing it and thats a big no no......
 
I'd have to go with the S guard; the D guard might restrict your ability to make certain moves and I don't think it would add any significant protection. Both are beautiful knives, though.
 
I think the D guard looks cooler but prefer the functionality of the S guard (or regular plain jane if we're being real).
In australia at least trench knives are heavily restricted and so as a result blades with d guards are impacted in a similar way. Push knives and karambits get the same treatment- I had a few cursive EDCs held at customs as the officer felt that you could put your finger inside the frame of the handle, and have it come out from your knuckles perpendicularly like a punch knife. I asked her to demonstrate and after trying it she agreed that it wasn't a very practical or comfortable application and let me keep them :)
 
Can I get my D guard with spikes on it? 🤩

Something along the trench knife theme, prepping for Armageddon! Gonna need that skull crusher on it also. 😉

A straight guard, with the steel end plate of the D-guard model would be pretty awesome!

This would definitely be doable. Recently we've been considering offering a solid butt plate as an option on the plain jane. It comes as standard on the spur, which can sometimes feel like a little bit of overkill, especially when you consider that I feel like it would be nice to have an option for these blades to have the lighter bare butt or the heavier plate metal butt, depending on what the customer desired :)

All laws controlling/banning any types of weapons are basically moronic.

Criminals don’t follow laws. It’s in their job description.
