BOSS HG55. . . Yowza!!!!!

I love that movie I grew up knowing Matt Ferigno and Louie's brother Andy. Andy is one of my closest friends and moved right down the road from me and I see him all the time.
 
Here's my original pattern from 1982. . . I used to cut them all from aluminum sheet. . . . You can see the thumb notches were cut in on a bandsaw back then. . . They were also a bit too far forward to use unless choking up on the blade. . . .

Jerry :D

Here's the one I made for Jennifer's Dad in 1992. . . Highly polished and very difficult to get a good pic of. . . . Note that the thumb notches are hand-filed in . . .

Jerry :D

Now that is something, looks very good.

Oh no, if the LE is without the blade corrigations my CC's in trouble !

I love that blade profile!!! Kinda reminds me of my Randall #27 blade...my favorite randall !



edit- I had to come back...I can't get over this Blade Profile!!! Man this thing is sweet...I can't take my eyes off that Blade!

Yep, I'll be getting one of those too. I'm hoping for one without the corrigations myself but, may have to get both if the opportunity presents itself. Common Friday!
 
Looks almost like a sub-hilt fighter. I like it a lot. I see some cool custom shop versions in the future too.
