High praise right there.

Good stuff guys - thanks for sharing.
 
Thanks for taking the time to put this together, really enjoyed it.


Cool thread Moose. I've been smellin' an Ethan Becker/Bill Siegle collab for awhile now. BTW, when you get tired of that 16, send it this way. ;)
The top secret, super mystery knife??
 
Bill/Ethan/Moose,

What is the thickness at the spine on the chopper?

typical of a Siegle like that, the spine should be about 1/4 inch.

Guyon has one that was at the Fall Gathering, along with my Siegle Khukri.

Ethan got to handle both, and really liked the Jungle model. i agree.

the khukri is a very well made example of the type, and works well, but the Jungle knife has a its own cool thing going on

i want a jungle knife too. glad Ethan finally got his. around three bills or so. worth every inch :>
 
I just puked in my mouth a little. If there is one thing that needs to be dis-invented, it's the TekLok. That knife needs a dangler.

I'm not a fan of TekLok's either. I don't think they work well, and hold whatever you are putting them on, to far off.

But, they are a solutions and at least there is a way to attach it to a belt.

I don't know if the kydex dangler parts Godspeed uses are something he makes, or something you can buy. His Baldric adapter might work good on that too.

I need to get on the experiment I had planned for a chicago screw attachment that adds a flexible belt loop made from seat belt material...need a sewing machine tho...

Bladite, the Jungle Knife looks like a Thai Enep/khukuri cross. I like it alot also. Ethan REALLY needs to get back into the khukuri biz! Maybe this knife will get the fire going:)
 
Siegle???

Did someone say Siegle???

Here are a Few I have tested

Bill Siegle just like Ethan Becker both are masters in their craft--and give their customers a WHOLE lot more than they pay for

Mr Siegle makes a fine product, that i need to own more of.

but i'm a bargain hunter too, so that will take time :)

eventually :>
 
he sure doesn't skimp on those sheaths, either
 
A Becker and Siegle colab would be awesome. i imageine a Jungle knife with the classic Becker handles.
