Big, solid and very nice.

 

[WVHILLS]

Sweet knife, but is that an FHN 5.7???

 

[Tim Galyean]

Yes it is!

 

[Lorien]

Sick!!!

 

[kneedeep]

Looks really great Tim!

Like the color combo, Ionbond did a great job.

Which is heavier, the MOAB or the 5.7?

Sweet baby Jesus in a helicopter!!! That's gonna be Optimus Prime's EDC in Transformers 2!

And is that a FN-57 pistol?

[nikoknife48]

Wow that's cool straight out of Robo Cop! You going to be making more??

 

[Buffalohump]

WTF???

Is that a knife or a folding fighter jet?

Words fail me...

 

[Joss]

Didn't like the MOAB either.....BUT....I know that it functions well, locks up like a bank vault, and probably has great ergonomics.

This is one of those "different to be different" knives, and you either like it or, don't like it....sort of like the Steyr-AUG or the FN that Tim has pictured with the Mega Moab....neither gun would I own, but might like to shoot.

Simply, just don't care for the aesthetics...and since Tim and I are buds, don't have to worry about him telling me to go f**k myself, at least not seriously.

Best Regards,

The lock bar looks very thin where it has been thinned to allow mortals to use the lock. Could the titanium that needs to be removed to allow the framelock to do its job be taken from a few sites so that it doesn't receive such a dramatic thinning?

 

[Tim Galyean]

Thom,

The handles are 1/4" thick on this guy, and the web thicknes left is .055" so you are seeing a bit of an illusion.

Best,

Tim.

That is absolutely beautiful
