No safe queens, just the ones you actually use heavily. Batoning, chopping etc..

No pics yet but when I get my NMSFNO, it's going to see some heavy use going camping and as an EDC so i'm curious what I have to look forward to. :D
 
Have no fear when the NMSFNO is on your side. It is a brute... you will break before it will.

I've posted these pics previously, but that knife has split more than a cord of hard, dry Texas Mesquite wood.... and it still shaves. I prefer the covex edge... you may want to think about that.

BTW... 230grn... post some 1911 pics... you'll find lots of fans here.

If I ever buy some batteries for my camera I'll get some shots of my Brown SF, but for now, just my two hardest use guns in the spirit of the thread. This is my EDC Colt government model with some VZ grips on her.

Here's my hardest use AR that rides in the truck with me everyday, pardon the 4th of july pic. I've probably put 9k rounds through her since Christmas

Two more for the hell of it.

Atleast now I've contributed something to this thread. I've always been a gun guy, I've spent close to 20k on firearms and don't own a single knife more than 100 dollars. That's going to change now. ;)
 
All of these have been posted on other threads recently, but why not...

Some of my favorite knives to beat on - wish I had more Busse family steel in these sizes, but I'll have to settle for these... until next week when the Waki's ship :thumbup: :D
 
My Skinny ASH-1 is my hardest used knife by far ... it's been beaten mercilessly with all the force I could muster, although not as frequently as I should. I'll have to find some more excuses to pound it through some hunks of wood.

Cool pics... Love the heaters 230! Thanks for posting... :cool:

The INFI will take all the punishment you can muster. My recommendation is to beat it as if it has lifetime warranty and will be replaced if you bust it. ;):D
 
Yeah, I've gotten to the point where I intentionally pick the gnarliest, knottiest logs I can find when I want to test a knife's batoning capability. I was loving seeing that M9LE twisted up from the fork at the base of that log, and springing right back to true after the log was split...

and still shaving hair :thumbup: Who says SR101 can't perform???
 
Dang Foo!!! You crazy man!???

I can't believe you used your Cultie to hack up the potato...

Was there any edge damage?

Looking for pics of knives that have been used heavily, whether is be chopping or batoning. The 1911 pics are for the guy who asked to see some.

As a noob here, you would not know that one of our running jokes is that Bravado NEVER uses his knives, he has only safe queens...:rolleyes:

So we like to give him s**t for it. :D
