So the stars aligned, and I finally found the 'Zilla that I've been searching for!!! :D :cool: This one has been through the hands of several members here, and I'm pretty sure she was born in March of last year.

The blank on this one is 0.266" thick, but the blade maxes out at about 0.245" thick, about 3/4" down the blade from the spine (the spine is a bit thinner than the max thickness). It weighs 32.4oz (918g), and the blade is just a bit over 12". The full convex grind is ground thinner than any Zilla that I can find dimensions on (LVC has a few charts out there with some measurements), and behind the edge for about the first inch or so, it's almost as thin as my B8 LE!!! :cool:

The handle is like an Ergo and a Fusion handle got together and had a beautiful daughter! :D It fits my larger hands so, SO well!!! :thumbup: It came with an open-spine custom Kydex camo sheath too, but I failed to get a good picture of it before it got too dark. I will remedy that tomorrow. ;)

Love this blade!!! :cool: Thanks to everyone that had a part in getting this into my hands! :D She will be lovingly thrashed, beaten, and abused! ;) :p

A perfect combination of satin finish and black canvas handles :thumbup:. That's one model I haven't tried yet and hope to in the future. Do you have an FBM to compare to?
