Just made some fuzzsticks to get my woodstove going and thought I'd compare my Roach Belly with my Hiker.
Both these knives are made from 3/16" stock.
I'd like to add some excitment and say one was much better than the other but strangely they both seemed about the same !
Maybe the Roach Belly cut with slightly less effort due to the wider blade allowing a more gradual bevel but it was so close that it is really a mute point.
Both have very comfy handles with the edge here going very slightly to the Hiker due it's extra length but yet again no complaints with either knife, no hotspots during use !:thumbup:
