I've been looking at and wanting a Leuku for some time, and I've managed to decide which model I'd like to spend my money on (a Stromeng).
Not having any possibilities to actually try out the different sizes, though, I haven't been able to decide which length Leuku would fit my needs best.
I'm going to use the Leuku for the same things that most others do - as general campknife, chopping firewood and rougher cutting. Living in Switzerland it'll be coniferous as well as deciduous woods.
The sizes I'm considering are the 8 inch and the 9 inch carbon steel models.
The question is - Which of these sizes would be better? Is the difference so small it doesn't really matter?
Is there anyone out there in this knowledgeable place that can give me good advice?
