DPx Gear HEFT 12 CHOP

[RamZar]

Saw this in the August 2015 issue of Blade Magazine.

"The DPx Gear HEFT 12 CHOP includes a 12.5-inch blade of Sleipner stainless steel and handle options of black G-10, olive wood (shown) and carbon fiber. The blade drops down at the tip and the grind is thickened and steepened for use so the machete can double as an axe. MSRP: $275-$300."​

Knowing it's Sleipner tool steel probably means it's another quality piece made by LionSteel.

Any chance of a coated "Assault" version of the CHOP?

Busse talon hole trademark?

Busse talon hole trademark?

They seem to have opted out of the hole!

Any new info on the HEFT 12 CHOP? Release date for instance or even a vague time frame would be nice?

We have something special in mind to replace the hole and, no, it has nothing to do with Busse and we are not in violation of his trademark.
