Well I would also suggest looking at the DScosmetics x2 it is a .68 blade gap (geometry seems a tad different than the Gamechanger) since it is more comfortable vs my 68 JAWS yet my BBS lasted longer than my 84p? It also has a great handle option with the destroyer and a scalloped cap for looks! Mind you I still wouldn't shy away from the 68 Jaws it is my favorite Game Changer out of 68p, 68 Jaws, 84p , 84 Jaws sorry I have no experience with the normal OC plates unless you count the X2.
