My traditional dreams came true!
So, my favorite traditional pattern is the sodbuster and Great Eastern Cutlery makes the best that I've ever tried short of a custom. Theirs has a nice round and chunky handle, a very heavy and secure pull, a nice snap, and great blade shape. I own a few of those, but I always wished for a larger version. I know they made a larger version, but it had been some years since. However, they just released another run! Instead of a 3in blade, the blade is 3.75". The handle is 4 5/8". Blade is 2.5 mm thick. Fit and finish will surely be as flawless as the smaller soddies. And only $62 each!
This run they are doing black linen micarta, od green micarta, and orange delrin. I can attest their orange delrin is pretty nice, but I just ordered 2 black micartas. Od green hasn't shipped yet.

Cool. Who has them in stock?
Re: My traditional dreams came true!
Knives Ship Free has some, maybe only the smaller version though?

Got them from Knifeconnection.
Knivesshipfree and DLT just got them in.
Make sure you get the #21 and not the #71.
#71 is smaller.
