That orange PSKK looks nice. It has been through some changes since my prototype PSKK.

Hi all
Jeff as to getting the coffee maker in the pic I would like to say I am just a great piture taker but I am just really bad picture taker LOL
Bear yea there is some changes I think it has made them better. LOL well I think it has anyways LOL
kgd I have been carrying both and using both for the last couple of days and cutting braches for clearing trails and cutting bagels and spreading butter on bread and cutting tomatos I can only say that the 5/32" is just a little heavyer every thing is so slight in the difference that I as of now really can not say which I like better. Just maybe the 1/8" thickness is better for the alround using thickness from camp to kitchen though.
I am really happy with the 6" blade length so far and can hardly wait to
make one with a 5" blade length just to try them both out ,I will make the 5" in 1/8" thickness thought just because it such a great thickness not to thin and not to thick for me it is just right. I will be putting the osage handle on the 5" one I really like the feel of it for just doing every thing. that I have used it for so far. But for survival purposes I will still take my Orange handle one and keep it on my belt for just that purpose because if set down or dropped it really shows better. I tossed both Peace makers into some tall weeds and the orange really stood out over the yellowish osage wood handle.
hope this helps ya Ken,
Bryan

I meant how did you get in that pouch.
OK, I blew that one. I was trying to capitalize on the "pink purse incident."
I like kits/contents though. I have been carrying a Fiskars "plastic" hand-trowel but have wanted to try the "U-dig-it" but wasn't sure how well it worked. Are you happy with it?
Regarding the 1/8" v. 5/32" question - my 5" Pathfinder was 5/32" (per Bryan's recommendation) and I liked it a lot. It was a bit more "beef" than the 1/8" but 3/16" would have been too much. I was weighing (figuratively) options between 3/16" and 1/8" and Bryan gave me the obvious solution - go with what's in between - 5/32", and it was a good decision.
