Homage to Ban

[thefifth]

I would just like to take this opportunity to express my respect for someone many of you know

Not long ago I sent two SHe’s to Ban to have him rework the handles, while he was doing this I also sent him a FFBM (highway74 if your reading this it’s your’s) I also sent to him a HHFSH standard mags. Yesterday I received a package which contained: a SHe modified birds beak handle, a SHe ergo handle, a HHFSH new mags and last but not least a Super FSH.

He had polished all the spines and edges. I spoke to him just before the Ganzaa and said how I wanted a Cultellus but had to go to a wedding so I would miss out so he offered to be my proxy and scored one for me.

Now I have met several excellent people here on the BF so I don’t want to belittle any one but I just wanted to acknowledge the superior kind of person and artist that Ban is.

Didn't mean to say it was amazing before, but he is pumping out stuff that WOWs me even more than the last item, each and every time.

Can't wait for my FFBM to return. Me =

Did a trade with Ban a little while back, he's a stand-up guy and I'd deal with him again in a heartbeat.

Hoping an AK comes my way...cuz after I saw the work Ban did on that glorious Ruck, I would want my AK "Banned" as well!! :thumbup: Just keep getting better and better!

A girl needs a knife...

fifth, is that FBM the one that had Green Linen scales? There were several times I almost pulled the trigger on that one, to send to Ban for some magic. Can you please put up another shot of it for our viewing pleasure? (and my regret that it's not mine :grumpy

 

[thefifth]

resinguy - that's the one the mags are on the HH now
Hogginaway74 - I plan on it as soon as it stops snowing
azshaman - just asked him about one AK or ruck I haven’t decided but after four knives I thought I should let others get Banned
gimmejr-that's killer

 

[c4man]

Ban does awesome work, and he's a giver as well! Very good traits Ban!

 

[xaman]

oh man, those are sweet SH's bro!

 

[Gerberblades]

Ban does a great job, and congrats on the blades, how does the HH feel with mags?

thefifth,
Nice knives! Did your FBM start out as a FFFBM (saber ground)? That looks like a cool way to get into the cutting performance of the full height grind of a FBM LE for a lot less!

Is the coating still intact under the grip pannels?

I've been think of getting a few of my knives "Banned" lately as well.

Thanks for the pics! Nice work Ban!

Ban does some amazing work. Here's a Sage AD that he turned into an insane slicer and my favourite EDC.
