Thanks nerv102. And his has black canvas micarta, so less than an ounce difference between Brtn11's canvas-on-satin 1of300 @ 25.75 oz and Rob's CG canvas-on-coated without choil at "about 750 grams" or as you say about 26.5 oz. Sounds like these are all pretty close. :thumbup:

I used a kitchen scale to weigh mine, it's probably not as accurate as a digital one. It's a bee's willy over 750 grams.

Just for the fun of it I weighed my regular FBM .27 thick - 800 grams

and my fat NMFSH .36 thick with G10 handles - 920 grams

Never weighed a bee's willy, but I think I'm with you there. :D

Thanks for those additional weights. :thumbup:
 
chopped a thinner log this time and the knifes seem to perform about the same as last time ( the part of the log the ASHBMLE went through was a bit thicker)

For the heck of it i also chopped a much thicker log with the MOAB in 44 hits :D

Forgive my huffing and puffing, i need to work out more :D
 
Lennox, sweet vids man. Impressive, but it would be MORE impressive to see you chopping with your MOAB while riding on your Moab!

Of course i used it bro:D i wouldn't be buying Moabs if i didn't plan on using them :D
 
Hey Yabba, he even let me use it, and his other MOAB too, and w/o his three KZs, one proto and a test team amongst them...
Heck Lennox uses all of his blades, no matter how rare or special they are, lol...
And that's why I have one Busse comming and several more on the list for purchase in the near future...
 
Nice vids Lennox, that MOAB is freaking gigantic! Have to add that to my list. That trail looks like a lot of fun to ride as well.
 
You're my kind of chopper brother!

I'm still paying off my ASHBMLE, but soon, soon...

Not sure if anything can really beat the MOAB though, unless Jerry or Garth got drunk and made a MOAHawks. Or maybe that could be a task for the SR custom shop??? I'd give a kidney (something the Busse team might really need ;) ) for a fatty tomahawk, about double the weight of the RH and no spike.
