Yeah call me a chubby chaser if ya will but I like my wide blades the best, here are mine although I forgot to include my Spyderco Temerance. I don't count blades such as my Chopweiler as I don't feel that is wide when taking the length into account !!!

I was going to post a pic of my 12-pack abs, but I see you're talking about knives... :D

Wide can be very good. It seems to me that steel and thickness being the same, you can get a much finer bevel and have a tougher blade, with a bit wider profile. I'm a stock removal guy, so I try to make the most out of each bar of steel anyway; it's easy to make a too-wide blade narrower; not so much the other way around. :o
 
I like the wide blades. The bigger ones have increasing chopping functionality and the little ones have more of a slicing capability!
 
Here`s one I`m working on now, ready for heat treating.

You are such a show off..... :p in my best Napoleon Dynamite voice "LUCKY"

I am very jealous of your Siegle collection.
 
I've got an affinity for wide blades myself. I like the wide, flat grinds that Ray does

When I had this custom made by the Jones Bros, Barry Jones said I could paddle a canoe with it :D Wish I still had this beast.
