A crazy idea I had... Basic Kukri

I would certainly be up for a Busse Basic with a blade length over 12" - something like a B13 or B14. Could either be a straight or a kukri. Would be a serious working tool and still only weigh around the same as a BWM or ESEE Junglas.
 
INFI, 18" @ .200", Canvas Micarta would be a go to for me!!! I guess I'm a real fan of the BWM size Blade ie thickness.
 
I think a Basic Kukri Infi 12"-13" blade in respirene-C would be a good idea, keeping it in the Basic pricing range. I also wouldn't mind a Scrapyard version in SR-101. Keeping the weight around the 20 to 22 oz. would be ideal for me as well. Another good idea in this thread is a Basic 12 or 13.
 
I think it should be at least 15" INFI with Res c and Micarta options and .20-.25 thick. Make a 16" and a 20" and I'll buy one of each for sure!!!

What do you think Jerry? Throw us a bone!!!
 
Not crazy at all...excellent idea!

GUYS it is death CHAT not CHANT...I have been seeing this misquoted too often lately....don't get it twisted ;)

Make it in the 12" to 13" range and thin the blade down to .1875". Now were talking about a real practical Machete for clearing brush and still good chopping power, yet light enough to carry all day when hiking/backpacking!
 
I'd rather see the Busse brand cover some new ground with their new production for a while, personally. The NMFSH sounds like a grail knife. But, I agree with others, this wold be a good scrap yard project.
