MOAB 2023 vs MOAB 2009

[David Brown]

Hi Everybody,

Wow they are really pretty different


Thickness Old is .400 new is .340"

swedge on older version, no swedge on the new one

square magnum scales on the old one

Much more rounded scales on the new version.

I did not weigh them LOL scale only goes so high.


Both are awesome.

with all the inflation..... potato chip bags are smaller too.....

* Maybe it's the diference in Paint thickness?

Great post Dave! Love it!

Which grip do you prefer? Older or newer? Do they feel much different?

The choils are remarkably different. Cool pics mate.

Thank you, honestly I like the new one a bit better in that area.
I have big meaty hands so small diameter grip = better .

The choils are remarkably different. Cool pics mate.

Thanks Brudda.

Look at all the NMFBMs in the background! If only I could time-travel

 

[David Brown]

The Belly on the new versions is much more pronounced so you could say it gained some weight LOL

Really nice! The scales and swedge on that 2009


Does the blade height measure the same just forward of the choil?


I think there were some .34 versions floating around before this new batch. I don’t remember if they were specials or not
