I'm seriously considering going for a starter 7/7, I'm just waiting to see those solidworks renderings. I also hesitate a little because I'm trying to move away from choils. I started typing a response to Riz in the GSO 8 thread when the 7/7 was mentioned, but thought I'd start a thread of my own.
Where is the balance point on the 7/7? Is it right at the choil or farther onto the blade?
The 7/7 would be my big knife on most outings and it would be combined with a 4.1. How did this blade perform for you in big jobs? I'm sure it would baton well and even though it was not designed as a chopper I'm guessing it would do a decent job and definitely out perform a 5.1 for this one task. Am I right?
At this point I don't feel the need for something as big as a 10 and I'd like something in my hands sooner than the unreleased 8.
If you have used a 7/7 let me know what you thought of it!
