blade show 2011 official report by bladite

Love the 'tweeners, & realllllyyy loooooooove the JIMPING! Please keep it for production! Thanks so much for the photos, Bladite, these are what I've been waiting for! I personally find jimping extremely useful, no matter how well the handle is designed, or the ergos are perfected, especially in knives of this size(not so necessary in big choppers, I guess). Just my opinion. :)
 
The Zombie Knives, have appeal, I can see it. They don't appeal to me, but neither do any of the JAB blades. I do like the fact that they come with black handles as well in case the green are too loud.
 
When the tweeners come up and i get my hands on them I think I might just give away my BK11.
 
the zombie chopper is actually a great utility blade. light, fast, and "grabby". you can't beat the price for a machete class light chopper like that. nope. the sword is not bad either as a slasher and chopper. as well, the tanto surprised me - it's VERY thick, solid, and could do some interesting work all by itself - would have to get one to figure it out, but i liked it immediately upon picking it up. the stabby thing? well, it's a stabby thing. would rather have the JAB BACON MAKER. "what are you doing honey?" -- "MAKING BACON". yeah. it's an awesome knife i think :)

course, for chopping, they'll be outdone by the new Machax, but that's a little wait :)

probably on it's way to be a sword for optimus prime... this thing was amazing. to see. a manufactured girder some 60 feet long and 16 feet tall? there was no trailer, the GIRDER is the trailer. they just MOUNTED rear wheels on it, attached it to the cab with a mini-trailer, and voila. there's nothing in the middle but girder. hah. with the wind blowing, i scooted past that sail fast, if it rolled, it's taking out everything. the drivers of each (there were at least 3 or 4 that i saw), where white knuckle driving. seriously, that can't be legal hauling stuff like that :)


need some ivory? i thought so!
