Before anyone says it "i allready have an Esse. a 4 and a 6" I'm looking at TOPS Outpost command and TOPS Wilderness Guide which would you recommend for a general outdoor use knife "which is what all my knives get used for". Just typical bushcraft work, with some rope, vine and cardboard cutting here and there some light chop maybe not any heavy chopping I have heavier/longer blade knives and hatchets for that. I'm into these two do the the width and profile of the blades and the overall profile not being too "tacticool" back of a magazine type design. the wilderness being 1/8" thick the outpost being 1/4"

say you can have either for $115 which would you pick?

the Wilderness is 4 1/4 "cutting edge" 4 1/2 total the Outpost is a 5 cutting 5/12 total blade

I've held both they both FEEL right in hand, handles feel as good as my junkyard dog folder which I still love. just can't decide :confused:

You may want to look into a Scrapyard 511 (5.5" long, 3/16" thick blade) while they're still up for sale. $105 shipped, and you could probably find a sheath for $30-40. I hope that's not too far out of your price range.
 
got one allready lol. for about $65 on thehighroad forums currently in my atv storage box. lol. hasn't rusted yet and used it a few times. cut through a tow strap that got stuck wrapped around axel and it's factory still sharp
