Does anyone else see a little Brute in the Gunny Knife?

It's a safe bet the knife is a performer.

I like your rendition, but since adding metal isn’t an option if I bought one I’d continue the arc of the choil to the point of the handle, making the choil useful and getting rid of that extended guard thingie.

I was just rendering what MolokaiRider had on page one. Word.

 

[FAL'ER]

Not a fan.
No disrespect obviously, but the knife design is horrible in my opinion.
I believe Ka-bar can do better.

Yeah, looks like ass. Don't know what the intended use is, fighting probably (just a guess)
No disrespect intended.
If I got hands on and it totally wow'd me, it would start to look prettier.

I like that Molokai Raider version a lot better but the long swedge, the extra long dingus half guard, the signature and the 1/2 choil. Damn

 

[The Warrior]

Not overly crazy about it myself. With the long swedge, and gigantic finger guard, I'm guessing it was designed for stabbing/thrust. Take away the choil, the hideous finger guard, the swedge, or at least a much smaller swedge, to make it more forward heavy, etc, it wouldn't look too bad.

 

[SALTY]

Pretty neat blade. I personally think this needs cut off and the choil removed.

Yup.

I like KaBar knives and really like Becker stuff but even though the BK9 reportedly out performs the Brute, I may look for a Brute before I buy this one 'cause the Brute is just so darned good looking.
