:thumbup: +1 It beats them all IMO
Lol! I've heard of these doing this all the time.. so not so great. However, I think the holes in the handle have since been relocatd in the newer models due to us guys battoning them to death.
In this blade Range Id have to say a Randall SGTs model and EDC by JK. Most of my favorites are in the 5.5-6" range.
Found a pic of the JK :d Mykel M made me a really nice kydex sheath for it with a fire steel holder and all, makes the knife great to carry in all weather conditions.

Thank you. Was love at first sight with the Randall, glad he still had it by the time I could afford it. Hands down the best looking knife I own, makes a great user too.

Machine26, I sure love to see a Randall being used, instead of being a safe queen. 
I beat the snot out of my old Model 14

I have been using my bk15 almost exclusively in the bush.....
A few days ago I aquired this....
Think I'm gonna use it for a while.

ditto! the spyderco bushcraft is my most used woods knife. i keep trying other knives but none seem to top it although a few have come close...and who would guess a $15 mora 120 is the closest one i've found so far in terms of overall comfort and performance

the image is no longer there but i'm guessing it's the spalted maple one that was snapped in half. you seem to keep repeating this "doing this all the time" - i've already corrected you on this thread, post #22: http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php/1031052-Beat-the-Dead-Horse-Bushcraft-Knives/page2. please stop spreading rumors unless you have a more substantial evidence otherwise.
once again, i'll repeat: according to sal glesser, there's only one that broke (from the spalted maple first release) and that hole under the scales is now gone in the g10 version.
here's the thread which was actually posted just recently: http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php/1022946-Spyderco-Bushcraft-Change-to-Skeletonized-Tang.
i have one of the more heavily used ones out there (i treat it like my knives from becker, esee, etc.) and it's still going strong 2+ yrs later.
It was desinged poorly, that's why it broke. It's now been redesigned, and it works.
Either way it's not important anymore as the knife has been changed, but I do recall alot of guys very clearly stating 'don't batton with the spydie bushcraft knife' - and it was because of those holes and blade breakage/s.
