Broad bladed fighters

Giant Chitlangi Bowie is pretty broad. Fairly thin too for your average HI blade. Its highly fullered for strength.

I think the Foxy Folly would qualify, though it stands out even more for its beauty. The blade is broad, relatively thin and lightweight, by HI standards.

Does HI make any fighting balanced knives that have broad blades?

What would you consider a fighting balanced knife? Are you talking about one where the balance is an inch away from the guard on the handle side? HI doesn't have many of those, but different balances work for different styles.

And techniques and preferences, at least I think. :)

By a broad bladed balanced fighter I mean a HI model that is known for being particularly lively in the hand and having a fairly broad blade :D
