Finally had an opportunity to use my CABS on a real hog. I had a friend shoot a sow the night before and he cleaned it with my KOA's, the caper in 440 and Alaskan hunter in D2. Both knives had cleaned 2 Axis does over the weekend and did not have a chance to be sharpened. The KOA's took forever to cut through the hide of the sow. So out came the CABS. I did not want to clean this critter due to size and the fact he was a boar. I used the CABS to slice him open across the belly and chest shield (easier for the buzzards and coyotes to clean him up) and I have to say that is the quickest I have ever cut through the hide of a hog, especially a large boar covered in mud. I am sold. Can't wait to use it on whitetail this fall..... the real story is: I tackled him, wrapped the chain around his neck so I would have something to hold on to as I rode him to his grave.:) Everyone always ask so, I am an enchillada plate shy of 200lbs; he weighed 262 lbs with broken tusk.

Wow. That must have been one hell of a wrestling match! Nice score on the delicious boar meat :) oh yeah nice CABS too.
 
I'm looking forward to using my CABS on a deer this year as well. Should perform beautifully.

That's quite a hog. Nice kill.
 
way to go dude:thumbup: love the cabs also.
no way im pickin a fight with you:D
 
Wow, what a beast. You're a HOG using a HOG on a hog. :D:D

CABS are awesome. I used mine to butterfly some chicken and prepare dinner tonight. Cut like a laser. :thumbup:
 
forget gettin trampled in the next Ganza, RWT will wrap a chain around your neck and choke you out. Then, amidst all the commotion, I will sneak my little piggy hooves past. :cool::D
 
Wow that is a huge one, good job.
 
You are supposed to tell everyone you killed it with just the Cabs!

Great shots!
 
Congrats, That's a big un. Glad the CABS was up to the task. I have not got to use mine yet but will come Deer season hopefully. I have not been hog hunting lately as it's been so dang hot and dry here.
 
Forget hemp rope! I've always said that hogs are the best test of edge retention that I know of... their hide is thick, covered with thick course hair, which is coated with dried mud or sand. It will dull a knife faster than anything I've done with a knife.

Good job killing that bad-boy... keep it up!


And don't worry if some hippie chimes in asking why you didn't eat that boar... anyone who has smelled one understands. ;)
