Any Dayhiker owners?
Just curious if anyone picked one of these up when they were available and what their thoughts were on it. I got one of the good deals on the close out on the Forager and love it but keep wishing it were smaller. Just wondering how the little brother has performed. Thanks

I bought a Dayhiker and didn't care for it. The Woodlander, Forager and Forester all have the same large handles which are suitable for heavy gloves. The Dayhiker has a handle that is so skinny it feels like there's nothing there. I also question putting a convex edge on a relatively small knife. The Temp 2 is MUCH better in every way.
If you want something smaller you'll likely be happy with the Woodlander.

Our reason is quite satisfied, in 999 cases out of every 1000 of us, if we can find a few arguments that will do to recite in case our credulity is criticized by someone else. Our faith is faith in someone else's faith, and in the greatest matters this is most the case.

Dayhiker
As said if you have small hands you may like the Dayhiker . I had a Woodlander but the handle seemed rather slippery in hand to me so I sold it , must say the knife was a good construction . regards MG2
