Moose,
Hehehehe! Zombie green! Walkers beware! I'm sure that Zombie-sticker could do some serious damage with those serrations and clip point. Best of all, if you drop it in the dark, it'd be a cinch to find!! I love that!
That's cool!

I would love a next gen in 3/16 3V. While we're at it a traditional ka-bar in 5160.

I've wanted a traditional Kabar in D2 since the first time I hear that Kabar was using it. I'd actually love the hell outta the D2 extreme, if I could just get one without serrations.

Moose,
Why not get a D2 Extreme and see about grinding off the serrations? You'd end up with planing edge such as that on the Tom Brown Tracker, with the edge's retention it'd be great for ferro striking and making feather-thin shavings. All you'd have to do is plan the geometry and work about it very carefully.

I'd have to remove too much metal to get rid of the large scallops. That's on thing I like about this ZK Explorer, the serrations extend out past the edge, so, I could take them off, and then have a full length working edge.
And I tend to steer clear of anything that looks like a Tracker......

Moose,
Hehe..I know right! $300 bucks for ONE knife...blah. You could get a Bk 11, 16, and a 2 for less than that! No, not like the tracker,
more like a Scandi edge maybe. I did one for a fellow in that way (not a scalloped Kabar, but a Ka-bar Mule)..it was nasty sharp at
that part of the edge. The ding-a-ling nearly cut his finger off with it. What would you call a fully serrated Bk-9? The Render? Fully serrated Bk-9 in D2...now that would be evil in a horror movie. Say, Michael or Chuck runnin' around with one..heehee!!
