Oh my goodness is that one thick piggie . Just how thick was the HogB8 again? I am probably going to pass. Though of course, I really really want one.
Finally! One I can pass up. That’s just too much bacon for me.
I can’t be the only one(or maybe I am) wishing it was .187, .20 or at least .25 and then have a thick cut nuke at .315.
Should make a real nice chopper/overall badass type of knife though
Currently on the fence.
Yep, very true - But the one thing I also see is a lot of material removed so I imagine it's going to be a lot lighter than it looks. If I compare the thickness to the HOGB8, that is a real splitting maul, but it seems the thickness at the major spine allows it to have such a tall profile thinning out all the way. In the belly it seems to be much taller than the hog8 allowing for a shallower angle - It certainly would appear to be in the fat chopper category sort of like a shorter, fatter BB13 with some DNA of the Forsaken Mistress~ and that bowie clip is just rad as hell. Certainly an assault on the open mind HAHA!Argh, you are absolutely correct I think. I didn't actually see that the thickness was .315 until you posted that. 0.315 will look really cool, but it would be a much more usable knife if it was not that thick. I need to really think on this knife now.
