Nice pictures bro. Looks like that tan handled Battle Rat has seen some use, take a close up shot of the blade if you get a chance. What are your thoughts of all your large choppers, what are your top choices and why?

The DFLE is my favorite. The Res-c is much more comfortable than micarta for extended use. Second favorite is the Rat Mastiff. I don’t use the other ones as much. I like the extra length of the longer ones for chopping and splitting. Here’s some pics of the BR that I took in the past. I have more on my photobucket account.

Here’s the largest tree I chopped with it:

Sweet brother, thanks. The Dog father is probably the one knife that I miss the most that I sold. I need to get another one.

Since it looks like you have used all your knives and beat them like they are supposed to be beat I have another question for you. Do you prefer convexed edges or standard V grind, and which held up better for chopping and batoning?

I haven't noticed a difference. I sharpen them by hand or use a Sharp Maker, so they all end up with v edges anyway. I've never had any problems using it.
