Heavy Ordnance Grade Basic 8 . . . HOGB8 . . . Specs, Pricing, & Pics!!!

At 17.5 oz for the regular version that Jerry weighed, it's going to be an amazing performer in all aspects, but definitely no slouch in the chopping department. All while being light enough to EDC.

I just added this spine shot to my original post. . .

SPINE SHOT!!! . . . . HOGB8 on top. . . Regular Basic 8 on bottom!

Let's Drink!

Ok, I'm sold.

That looks better than I thought it would. And at 17ish oz at its heaviest, this just became one of those *boing* moments that somehow correlates with pants feeling tight.

the BIG DC finish is so worth the extra $30, i am going to place my order tonight!!! thanks Jerry for making such great knives!!

 

[resinguy]

Cool.

OMG!!! It's been too long.

Where ya been? How ya doing?

 

[Jaxx]

Cool.

Hey, good to see you here, sorry I missed ya. Welcome back!

 

[resinguy]

OK, maybe I'm overthinking this ... (that's my analytical, scientist brain) ... but from the pics, it looks like the BIG DC has the narrowest edge grind. That might suggest that it has the thinnest thickness behind the edge. That connotes to superior chopping performance.

OTOH, who am I kidding; I reprofile all my Bussekin choppers anyway! (save for the B8LE)

I thought that I might be able to resist this one until Will delved into those posts about the Long Clip variant, which is just beautiful, and now I am weakening. A few more drinks should do it.



What to sell, what to sell?????

I wana thank all the Hogs that kept HOGB8 thread going, and of course The Boss for listening.
On other blades I waited a while to order, on HOGB8 i found my self refreshing Busse home page half dozen times in last 30 min.
I didn't even know id like HOGB8 this much, but something about Satin .35 slab of INFI in that handle.... is just Tooo Dannn Irasistable lol

 

[dman62]

Dang it Jerry, I'm not made of money! Wicked cool blades!

 

[extrastout]

Ok...Busse did this thickness with an active duty (called off duty).....So the basic 8 can easily function as a camp knife....no problems
