I like the Desert Jack better of the two, but the RMDx is much, much easier to get a hold of.

Any owners of both able to share some opinions? What you liking more? These are 2 great looking blades! I have an itch for both and...there can be only one!
I don't have a RMD LE, but I DO have a Desert Jack. If you can find a DJack, snatch it up!!! The Jack is my personal favorite knife of all Bussekin in that blade length. The old school ergonomics are spectacular and the balance & blade shape is ideal for almost any chore (excluding chopping). It is also the smallest differentially heat treated knife to come out of the Swamp along with the M6. Although I may never use the knife hard enough to rely upon the differential heat treat, its nice to know that my survival knife is nearly indestructible! I hope I haven't been the devil on your shoulder to spend an extra hundred bucks, but I think you will know where that extra coin went when you hold a DJack
A bit of lean towards old school!
I figure a Desert Jack wouldn't be all that much more after slapping some pants on the RMDx. I had a chance at one on ebay last year...was a user...I shoud have jumped on it but was still deluded enough to think I could score a Dog Skinner at that point!
