As much as I like the look of the aluminum handles, I'd be afraid of them getting scratched.

Thanks to everone here, and especially to Mhawg's review of the ak47- i got a new urban gray/black micarta. I came home today to a box from the Co. Store... she is beautiful. She is not clumsy at all (as i feared she may be) but rather slick and manuverable... just as described. What a beauty.
The only problem i have now, is deciding what to grab if the undead ever rise: the AK47 or the FBM.
I beleive the FBM would be better at harvesting heads, but the AK47 gives more than 2x the range (blade plus handle)... oh what to do...

the ak-47 is quite large and heavy even for 2 handed swinging. Worst piece of steel to chop with ever. I find that it bounces off of any brush I swing it at and wont hardly cut anything. On the other hand with a good 75 rd drum magazine you can lay down pretty good suppressive fire. 
I bet some busse fans were getting a little hot over this at first. lol.
