Here's a couple of reference pics I took on set of the Boar MOABOLO to use as reference for the CG double blade...

It would be cool if someone in the movie pulled out a ka-bar and someone else said "I think you're gonna need a large knife"
 
I think I shot at that hog weekend before last.....lucky bugger stepped in a wombat hole at just the right moment and was then off like a rat up a drain pipe.
 
Yeesh! That MOABOLO looks all nasty and dirty! :barf:

Tell ya what, after the filming is over why don't you send it to me?
I'll clean it up and find something to do with it.

I'll even pay the shipping from Oz. :D
 
Blood stays on the knife... :)

This reminds me of a story my father shared with me.
Back in the 70's he was a young engineer working on railroad signaling. He would travel across country with maybe a mechanic and a couple of electricians and do maintenance and fresh installations of signaling equipment. So they were pulling all-nighters, driving in shifts and such.
This one night/early morning ,they were entering a small town and encountered a thick fog, as is the case in this part of the country. So they're chugging along at semi-responsible speed, through the empty town. Two guys sleeping in the back seat, shotgun sleeping when he should be watching the driver... when the driver shrieked NooOOOOO!!! ELEPHAAAANT!!!!!! and slaaammed the brakes.

They grazed a huge wild hog that got lost in the fog and panicked, galloping madly through the town. The car grazed it with the front right corner and spun to the side. Before they could all awaken and realize what was going on the boar was gone.
Of course the rest of the road home was spent mocking and joking about the whole "elephant" incident the driver alone witnessed.

The day after the checked the local newspaper an the front page was covered with the story, listing the mayhem the boar had caused. Among other things it blew through the fence into a military compound, flew into a mess hall and smashed into a wall, dislodging a cast iron hot water radiator, flooding the building.

You certainly will be able to see it :)

We're going for a worldwide cinema release, then the usual blu-ray/dvd thing afterwards. Probably a bunch of streaming/broadcast options too.

.... I am not Rob (he is a Cane Toad that often bends bananas and I a Cockroach but I do digress) but I followed this closely... ;) I am pretty sure this is the only Busse in the movie.

And Aias.... the country I hunt has the only fully carnivorous sub-species of wombats known in Australia.... the things are the size of pony and will have your leg off in a couple of swift bites....

As a note...the hog I shot at and missed was standing (prior to my rifle going boooooom) about 50yds from where the Boar movie knife sheath donor hog was shot last year... :D

Just the Moabolo. There are a couple of other knives in the movie, but this one is the hero one worn by the main character.
