Yeah, I fell in love with the HR the second I saw it. It's just asking to be beaten on, definitely a keeper and a user. The others I've got to evaluate a little more; you are right, it's a lot of mid-sizes; but I do like that size blade. The culti I picked up on proxy.
When I first held the SAR I was kind of ambivalent, but the more I've had it in hand, the more and more I like it. It seems to be a great all around utility blade, good for some chopping, but also easy to choke up on and still have a real nice grip to do some more precision work. Think it's a winner in my book.
