Model suggestions for H2H

[lmalterna]

Guys,
I just took some of my blades to a new instructor I will be working with to see what of my blades would be suited to his fighting style. He LOVES the handle on the Tanker A- Ideally he would like to see a Tanker A: 3/16" thick blade, a 1.5-2" longer blade and the last 2" of swedge sharpened... How close would the Satin Jack come or is there another model that would do that I am unfamiliar with???

Thanks,
Bill

Sounds like the SJ with a swedge grind would fit the bill to me.

the zero tolerance satin jack fits the description, but it may be 1/8" thick... cant quite recall...

the tanker a is also very very close to the combat 4...



and, because i drool over it every time i see it on badmojo - the top two blades - http://homepage.mac.com/zombiekiller/badmojo/images/customs/x29_idahoskunk_custom_trio.jpg

The ZT Satin Jack is 1/4" thick. The swedge isn't sharpened either, so while close, it's not exactly what you're instructor is looking for. As Progunner already suggested, a 3/16" SJ with a sharpened swedge sounds like it would fit the bill perfectly.
