Actually, trying to dig up the specs Jerry posted. PITA to find in threads with 10+ pages.

Anyone keep these for drooling purposes? Post 'em if you have 'em!!

The pricing.... well, the NMFBM is, I believe, shorter than the Zilla, but the NMFBMs have convex grinds, and the Zilla probably does not. That should mean saving a bit of work with the Zilla, especially if it happens to have the low sabre type of grind so often seen on khukuris. So, I'm thinking around $ 500 - 550 for the CGs, and at least $ 900 for the LE - if there will be any. I'm rather hoping there will be satin CGs, but most likely there won't be...

At least one satin Killa Zilla exists....

I hope the thickness is true to .270".

Yeah, so do I. Kukris ought to be thick - at least those meant more for chopping than for martial arts. .250" would be too thin for a chopping kukri, in my humble opinion of course, but .270" would be okay. :thumbup:
