Those are STUNNING. I think the Ergo looks just freaking amazing. Fantastic work by Richard there. :thumbup:

Btw...BasherHog seems like it inspires a bit more fear than HogBasher. Whatcha think?;)

Not out to try and create fear, I still need the Downunder Razorbacks to send me their blades to pimp:p

Wow the ratweiler doesnt hardly look like the same knife after the mods. Very nice looking pieces you have there.
 
INFI and SR101 ain't 'sposed to be purty an' shiny! Now go beat those thangs til they look rite! ;) :thumbup: :cool:
 
That high polish with these scales work perfectly.

Beautiful blades:thumbup:

Thanks Bigfattyt, and believe me I was thinking long and hard re the handles on the Tanker A.
They actually were very "harsh" and the ridges quite sharp biting into palm on good grip. I did a bit of soft sanding across the top and in the valley's and sure enough felt quite comfortable and looked nicer also compared to the original feel.

But my idea behind the whole rework was to change attitude on what looks more "tactical" (the whole 3) to a more OutBack, In The Wild or Bush, rather a BushMan's knife then an Operator's.
I do appreciate Micarta very much but by mirror polishing the blades anyway, a wood handle I thought would just enhance that sought change of attitude.

Cheers and thanks again for comments.:thumbup:

No question they look beautiful. The tanker A looks better with the modds. It is like seeing an old classic muscle car that some one modded, lowered, reinforced the frame, supercharged, stripped the interior, put in race seats, and interior roll cage. It looks sweet, it performs better, you want one, but you can't help but think they aren't making any more, and now there is one less survivor on the street. Just a bit of nostalgia. If they were still in production I would not even bat an eye. And If I had to pick the pre mod and post mod, I would probably pick the post mod. Especially in a user, because you are going to loose the coating when you use it over time anyway.

Very nice line up, and great pics.
