SHe
NOe
BAe
GWe

The BM isn't pictured. The BM is slightly thinner in blade width and the BAe has no rear hole. Some NOe have a butt grind on them so they also wouldn't have the rear hole but this is a mod and didn't come that way. I have heard that some guys did have Jerry do butt grinds but also have heard it being done elsewhere.
 
I don't know if I'd really include the Game Warden since it was never a standard line knife. I mean the Mojo's and all it's cousins have E-handles.

The Natural Outlaw is my current favorite field blade. At least as far as the E-handles go.
As far as the butt grinds go. It was on the Marine combat blades and as mentioned a few of us have had the mod done.

I did it for no other reason than to make carry more comfy. I've been known to carry one of these IWB and that last bit taken off helps. Keep in mind it's not a cheap mod. If you're NO-e doesn't have the polished spine the knife will probably have to be recoated which means taking the slabs off and the whole 9. I don't recomment it unless you're dead set on having that feature.

Here's an old pic of my collection. Shows the ergos I had then.

Here's the NO out standing in it's field. Or is that outstanding in it's field?

I would really love one of the BA-E's with the flush butts that were sold at Blade a couple of years ago. You guy's remember what I'm talking about?

They all had either satin or bb finishes, and most had a unique grind.
 
Were there any Game Wardens produced and sold? Or was it only a proto blade?

This talk about the history of the E-handles sparked my memory, but I can't remember if they were ever sold. I'm guessing since I've never seen word one about them, that they were never produced. However, I would love to have a tiny E-handled blade like that!:thumbup:

You and me both bro! Skunk's got one.... I say we take it from him, you can have the winter months and I take the summer months. What you say? ;)
 
I'm speechless. Now the INFI E handle madness has taken its hold on me. I have gone to the DARK SIDE!!!

Anyway, here are my two E handle Busses. SH-E on top and my brand new BA-E (picked it up this am at the p.o.) on the bottom. What a compact tank the BA is. Custom sheaths can't get here fast enough. Now to find a NO-E.

Sweet knives bro. The BAe is just one great little chunky user! Good luck on your hunt for the NOe. It's a nice blade also. I really need to get on hunt myself for one of those SHe. Once the funds grow a little...! :(

I really like those ZTNO's and wondered
if the camo NO at 8 o'clock is a Desert Monkey?

It is just a regular non-serrated 6" Terror Monkey.
 
You know, originally I considered the BA a small sized knife. But this BA-E changes things. It feels more like a medium. It just may replace my SJT for my "if I could only have one knife" scenario. :confused:

And I was originally thinking of putting together a 3 knife ombo (small, medium, large) set. But because this BA-E feels so stout but compact it may eliminate the need for a middle man. I may prefer the two knife combo now. My BA-E and SH-E seem like they would cover all bases. Hmmmmmmmmm.
