Title: Comparison pictures: Victorinox Alox Vs Case Sodbuster Jr vs Douk-Douks
Post by: revolvergeek on December 12, 2008, 06:15:52 PM
There were a few questions asked about the Case Sodbuster Jr and Douk Douks in another thread, so I thought that I would post the pictures here in case anybody else was curious about them.  If anybody would like more detailed pictures, or different items used to provide a more meaningful size reference, just let me know.

Three Douk Douks; small, large, large 'Squirrel' model:

Hope these are useful. Of all the knives pictured, the Sodbuster Jr and the Alox EZ-Solo get used the most. I often carry the large Douk Douk out with me to dinner as an ESK (Emergency Steak Knife). The small Douk Douk cuts great but closing it always makes me nervous; strong spring, sharp blade and not a lot of handle to hang onto to keep my fingertips out of the way.

Regards,
Danny

Thanks!

The large Douk Douk is exactly the one I have my eye on. Good to see it in a comparison shot.

I have had a Douk-douk for a while now and even though I have really tried I just can't like it.  For the money there are far better buys IMO.
