Mini-Tusker/WTK

[Chinpo]

I've been meaning to order another knife from Scott and I'll hopefully have the funds after my honeymoon at the end of this month.
I've seen pics of both the WTK and the Mini-Tusker and they look very similar (To my less than well-trained eye at least). Could someone let me know what the differences are between these two knives?

Thanks a bunch.

I've never had a mini Tusker, but I have a WTK. I would venture a guess and say that the mini Tusker is beefier.

Chinpo, the WTK is 8" overall with a 3 3/4" blade, 3 1/2" cutting edge, 1/8" thick by 1" wide A2. Scales are micarta 3/16" thick each scale, finished flat with rounded edges.
The Mini-Tusker is 8 1/2" overall with a 4" blade, 3 3/4" cutting edge, 5/32" thick by 1" wide A2. Scales are micarta 1/4" thick each side contoured flats, rounded edges using bigger pins.
Both knives are available with JRE sheaths.

Cool. Thanks for the very detailed information. Now I just have to decide on which one....

I do not have any experience with the WTK. I have a Mini-Tusker and it is great. I like the extra beef. I really think I made the best decision going with the Mini-Tusker.
