10" Chopper Photo Thread

[DennisM]

Please post photos of your 10" Choppers.

With the latest preorder - it may be beneficial to those of us, on "the list", make the right decision on how to accessorize our future addition. Also, it would be a great place to show off what you have making those without drool.

Please post the scale material and whether it's buffed or not and which hardware you've selected.

I initially thought unbuffed OD green Teratuf is what I wanted. Then I saw some CPKs with ECAM and it has me rethinking. I have a Shiv2 in buffed burlap that is gorgeous - props to S Sled for offering up that beauty. Can anyone post pictures of a buffed burlap side by side with buffed or unbuffed ECAM? ALL other material/color options are welcome too.

Thanks so much!

Haven't seen anyone else post so maybe I'm the only person with one right now lol. So on to some pics and discussion about this bad boy.

First off its freaking amazing. Just pure joy to hold it. It seems like it should weight more but it's crazy agile and light in the hand. Very nimble. Doesn't appear to weigh much more than my light choppa. It is slightly longer and thicker obviously but not noticeable when holding it.

I have only got to use it around the house but it swings fast and bites deep. I need a sheath asap to start carrying it. It is just a beastly blade that I can't seem...

I like this link/pic showing an MC and HDMC side by side.

Look so similar but yet feel completely different in the hand - MC vs HDMC

Which one do you prefer? I am leaning towards the MC.

Medium Chopper Terotuf version.

And for context and size comparison, here it is next to a Busse Anniversary Steel Heart 2 (ASH 2).

The SS SDFK is Buffed Burlap.
The DE UF is Buffed ECAM.

If I had to choose hardware on these again, I would go with Golden Ti.

Totally unedited, natural light, outside, under cloudy sky, in the shade.

Thank you. Both look great and I agree with you on the golden ti hardware for either.

Golden color is really easy.

This is the most current photos I have of the Buffed Burlap with Golden Ti Hardware.

It’s the brand new EDC1.2 from the October 2024 sale.

Not a chopper, but still a very good realistic viewing of that scale setup.

Unedited, cloudy sky and in the semi shade.

I hope to keep this thread clean to update folks about things currently going on with CPK that you may need to know about.

Exactly what I was seeking!!! Thank you D DK94044 !!! I will lock this thread because I didn't know there were already 10" chopper threads and one that had all the scale colors. Thanks to all that already contributed as well.

Retired UPS Driver - thanks for showing me the scale/hardware color combination I was seeking.

Here is a picture of the scale options from the thread that D DK94044 referred to.
