King Kutter vs Kodiak

[frogfish]

Went looking for a brush mower and found a used Kodiak 5ft in very good condition for $900 or a brand new King Kutter for $750. Is one better than the other or does the new KK make sense?
Thanks in advance for any/all info

Kodiak makes good stuff. I would say thier cutters are better than king kutter just for the fact that the top sheet is sloped, as to shed water. Recently, I was looking at a 5' Kodiak from Agri supply for 875 or so. That was brand new. Maybe check it out?
