My Fiddlebacks

Thanks. I have a prod version of the HB, so it needs to be christened this spring. Just wanted to see if the HM was that much different and if it would handle differently, and I know the prod version will be different from the custom handled ones. This gives me food for thought. And just to see more pics. Appreciated.:D

I guess the only real way to know for sure is to get one of each. That's my plan.
Good plan! That's the route I took. I love and use both models. Now I have several of both!
 
I really like this size, and the prices on the couple I've bought so far are a bit more easy to get ok'ed by the wife!
 
cant wait to see your version

The handle on that top knife is awesome, not wood but absolutely awesome. Is that a BC Sr?
 
Excellent choices and you definitely should.
Just don’t forget about the Bush Hermit... and its smaller brothers. :D

I'll check out the Bush Hermit. Any comparison pics?

my wife has 4 Fiddleback/family knives and now respects my purchases and trades.

Bear Cub
Hiking Buddy (prettiest one ever made)
Surls Bobcat
Fleming Lycosa

Maybe a Ladyfinger or Gaucho to start?

I am not trying to start anything but Choppa has one of the nicest Bear Cubs I have ever seen at a LOW price on the exchange right now ;)
Very nice start to your collection so far.

I may have seen that one...!

Welcome to the addiction! :)
Also, there are some fantastic knives available on the exchange right now, so make sure to take a look there. You might find a model that you’ve wanted to try for a great price.

I've checked out the exchange several times. There's one or two that have my eye, just waiting for, well, we'll see.

I absolutely love the lines of the OS LF, but prefer the more filling (and also taller rather than rounder) handle of the BH.

ETA: the top HB is the one mentioned earlier that I gave to my girlfriend. It’s from the group buy in AEB-L.

Also, have a look at the Loner - like a smaller version of the BH with a comparatively tall blade and handle and the same gorgeous lines at and around the guard.
