Hi ya'll,

Could someone in the shop please take a comparison pic of the hognose with another blade or two? A beer can, box of wine, pint of something, half eaten burger? I'm not picky, a kill devil or fbm would be nice. Since most of us have an idea of their size. Or you could humor me and take one with a paul's hatchet, or pork belly.lol

Thank ya much for reading this.
 
Sorry forgot the busse pic.

Thanks. I love the black linen on this one. It's not going anywhere yet ;)
 
I am with OGE... would love to see some comparison pics.

It's just such an unusual Busse that I'm having difficulty picturing it in my mind.

Here is a cut up pictures I did in Fusion 360. Everything is to scale. I put some knives in there everyone should now. EDIT: I went back and checked measurements again. I am off a little bit. I am chalking it up to angular distortion. I am too tired to try and bend it flat and manipulate the data. Thought this would at least be close enough to get a good idea of some of the knives we know compared to those that are on order or are soon to be on order. I am still on the fence with this one. I already have a many thousand dollar sword collection. But I honestly like the looks of it though....and its a Busse so I know its gonna be good.

I do this all the time. Gives me a good idea visually how big something is. Sometimes its really hard to tell just by looking at the picture. I have gotten so much better at putting them to scale too. Been a learning curve this year. Works out OK though.
 
Yeah, One of the things Busse could improve upon are the photos. Need to add something for scale in the photos.
 
Think Gladius size (16" Blade), but thinner (1/4" thick), snake headed SR-101 chopper of doom... :eek:

Nice line up. Oh Wait let me wipe that drool off the screen before it gets into the exhaust fan and burns up my laptop. So which do you like the best in the that line up. What one has the best balance and feels like an extension of your arm. Real curious on that one.

Making me choose ONE... Nooooooo!

Okay I'm risking Bravado's Wrath here in the Busse sub, but I gotta say of the big knives in the pic...
The 1311.

Any time it's in my hand, that thing makes me just wanna chop something.
Doesn't matter if there is actually something that needs it or not, I WANNA CHOP!!!
The feel? I can put the chop right where I want it almost every single time. It is sweet and easy to control!
And, one of the reason I'm one of the B-13 nuts. :D

Swords above? The Gladius! I LOVE it. Big mucking chunk of beautifully formed INFI. Heavy, but she bites hard!!!
Now if my AK or Short Butaniku was in that shot... Gaaagh! I don't know if I could choose just one between those three... :eek:
