Anyone Had The Guts To Beat A MOABM Yet?

Actually, speaking of handles, I have to voice my hate of the deep, sharp edged rivet holes in the scales. They are very uncomfortable, they dig into my palm pretty badly. No blood or anything, just not nice to swing for an extended period. They're either going to get a good sanding, or I'll just replace the scales entirely.

I would imagine that unless you have giant hands, this knife should benefit from thinning out the handles overall which would also take care of the sharp edged relief holes. Something to consider anyways...

I'm not too worried about my ability to replace or make them useable, my complaint is more that they shouldn't be like that in the first place. Both of my NMFSH had the same issue, so it's not just limited to the MOABM.
 
Awesome pics guys... this is the closest I've got!

I agree, just seems to be the nature of the beast unfortunately with the thick magnum slab and rivets. I've never been fond of this either, been the case on the ASHBM & NMFSH that I've had experience with.
 
I didn't actually use the steel hammer on it, those pics were for Daz ;). I used a dead blow, and this thing splits wood like crazy! A big fat wedge with a handle.

bahaha! Just messing with me!

Since I wont use any of my safe queens!

But I think IF I can find something big thats been used on a screamer deal. Tyrade has convinced me it must be used.... it must be used... it must be used... ya... I am ALMOST starting to believe it!
