Don't they look different? On blade has regular crankle the other is similar with Hell Razor?? Handle shape looks different too....or is my eyes??

the Sanfu's pic the handles looks totally rounded, the Schuey2002 pic looks much similar to FHH.

Which blade and handle is correct:confused:

Are they all "options" for order?? :eek:

...somewhere on this stinkin' forum...just trying to find 'em...:)
"stinkin' forum" mmmmmmm? i wonder if ol preteducci is playing games with us????
 
SNAFU's pictures are from Blade 2003. Shuey's are from this year. Which do YOU think are more likely to be the ones we see?

I'll be holding out for the HOG version to avoid the bevels. Think I'll add a swedge too....
 
Actually, I spoke to Garth today and he said the handle is exactly the same as on the FSH/HH/HOGFSH. Maybe a mag version will be available.

Also standing by for the HOG version.

whats a HOG version? will the FBM for sure have the bevels?

I believe the HOG version will be at least 5/16" in Satin and flat ground without the bevels. :thumbup:

The standard version WILL definitely have the bevels. :barf: (Still will probably not stop me from getting :foot: )
 
may I ask whats so bad about the bevels? Will the standard version be 5/16" as well? I want one!!!
 
I believe the HOG means Heavy Ordanance Grade? Anyway i hope these becoms available soon. Am dieing to get one directly from Busse for a change ;) I want these badly, much so than the folders. Just to be sure, ill take one of each :D

Nothing is bad about the bevels, just not my cup of tea.

The standard version will be .25".
 
supposedy no bevels on the HOG, and satin only, yes?

the mag handles are a MUST on this baby! i handled the mag and standard at blade this year, and the mags really make this one!
 
I find the bevels to improv ethe knife strength. ITs extra material so its gotta make it at least a tad bit stonger. They might not be to pretty but they are there fora reason. I dont really use my busses (yeah shame i know) but im sure some of the guys with HR's and PBS's can enlighten you as to wether or not they work.



Personally i like them


This beast bette rhave the mag handles. They Feel a little weird to me on the HR. I hav eboth and i prefer the regular handles. But i think that on the FBM thet would feel awesome.

I really wonder if it is extra material. I'm betting that the depressions fall below where a full height flat grind thickness would be. In other words, only the peaks are at the flat grind height. This makes the blade lighter but it is removing material not adding it.

I hope I'm wrong.
