Bushwacker Mistress. . . . Spy Pics!!!!!!. . .. YOWZA!!!!!

I'll take 5. What's next? C'mon, Jerry, the credit card isn't even warm...let's see like 5 new models for a ThanksGivanzaaaaa!
 
Double Cut with black linen micarta.....ideally the fuller hand shaped grips in the style of the NMFBM...if this option is open....I am a very happy man:thumbup::cool:
 
So sweet. I almost skipped this thread, thinking it was the older one, with a million views, and nothing new.
 
Out-FRIGGIN-standing!!!

So, comparing this new satin pre-production model...

to the teaser pic of the proto from two months ago:

it looks like the blade is maybe a little broader?

and on the CG version

BWGrayBlkG102.jpg


is the grind/plunge line different, or is that just a trick of the light or the coating?
 
Looks like full flat grind vs saber grind? Do we have the full specs/options on these yet? 3/16th thick. Length? Width? I'm buying one either way, just curious about my future Mistress.
 
I think the CG is really a sabre, like the LE, just hard to see.

No, we have no specs yet. But is was supposed to be 3/16" :thumbup:

Here's a quick pic of the Limited Edition. . . We went old school on this with Black Paper micarta handles.

I like to think I had some influence on the black paper decision since I suggested it in the other thread.:thumbup::cool:

Just let me feel special, even though it may not be the case.:o

I'm pretty sure thats all angle. the proto pic is much closer to being taken at a 90 degree angle, where the others are closer to 70 degree's. that will tend to make a knife look shorter and broader, and will distort distances considerably. It's one of the reasons 50mm is such a popular portrait lens - the slight pincussioning of a wide angle isn't normally a problem except when it comes to faces where even a minute change makes the difference of a person looking normal or like a completely different person.
 
Looks great. I'm digging the new handles. A great blend the Ergo's and Fusion's, very nice. I hope you plan on sending a few of these to PA in a couple of weeks!

Yeah, I wish they would shoot their knife pics straight down, to avoid that foreshortening distortion. :thumbdn:
 
Man, that LE is freaking sweet.

I am normally not the one to do this but I think I might have to buy 3 or 4 of those just because they are so sweet.
