Which large fixed blade would you chose?

I would go with the Esee. You should throw the Buck Hoodlum up there, i have never tried it but it looks BEAST!!

Yes in that area. There are a lot of contenders in the price range. I really like the Esee/Rat design and style. so that makes Swamp rat, Scrap Yard and similar styles legitimate contenders as well.

And the Buck Hoodlum could work.
 
All of your choices are REALLY good. Really step back & honestly consider how you will be using the knife. Some people don't like &/or cant sharpen a 1/4" thick blade. I can & i love them. That being said, the BK9 chops better than you can possibly think it can. It just does. Ontario Ranger RD series are awesome as well. The ESSE is the most expensive & is also an excellent blade, but i do not like thier sheaths, any of them, sorry. I would rather get a different one & have a custom made sheath exactly the way i want it, for that price. But thats just me.
