New Basics

[OldPhysics]

I think all of them will be pretty cool. It makes my brain hurt just thinking about it. If I could have only one, I think I'd go for the B4. That's a very useful size.

I'm back and forth between the 6 and the 4. Of course, my terrible addiction will probably cut in and I'll beg for both!

I am so weak.

I do not have a 4" busse, so that would probably my choice.

I'm torn as well. The B4 would make a great companion for a B11 or B10.



Will, I bet your prices are close. The smaller ones might even be a little cheaper.

I wonder if you will get the option of going satin or coated?

What's that old saying???





























































GO BIG OR GO HOME

 

[infantrylife]

I'm still trying to get a 11. I'd probably go with the 7 as well.

 

[Bigfattyt]

Not sure. I already have the B11. Paired with my CABS or MUCK
, or both.

If I had the scratch, of course, the whole set would be neat!

Wonder if there will be a "package deal" like they did with some of the other offerings such as the Desert Warfare set and BARF set....

I bet you they do.

Best guess--

B12 - 2012
B14 - 2014

you mean it's not gonna be 2 Weeks?! bummer

 

[whetrock]

I'd realy like a B4 and a B10 but I'd only be able to afford one and currently I lack a large Busse in my collection so for me the logical choice is the B10.

 

[shunsui]

Probably the 8.

2012, 2014?. . . . That is two weeks, right?

Well, maybe a combined two weeks of sobriety. . .

[Revolverrodger]

I already have a b11, does that make the b10 redundant ?

 

[Bowman1911]

2012, 2014?. . . . That is two weeks, right?

Please oh please Bossman!!! Those of us who gotta work NEED those pics!!!

 

[Mojo2010]

Best guess--

B12 - 2012
B14 - 2014

B14 sounds great to me. Since B11 is about 17oz +, additional 3 inches of INFI would give B14 roughly in the low 20 something oz total, I would guess.

Edited for typo.

 

[Demonic1]

at the estimated 20oz that B14 would still be lighter than a nmfbm..... by 7-9oz...

 

[Greaves]

Piiiiiiiiiiics!

 

[BigLebowski65]

Why do I suddenly have this feeling I'm going to be disappointed with the new Basics.....

dericdesmond's pic.

 

[resinguy]

?? How so?

 

[jazub]

Maybe nothing legitimate to complain about could be disappointing.

 

[papathud]

Could be very interesting.

I might compare a factory sharpened Basic #7(asym) I have sitting here against a Factory sharpened #8 to see how they each hold up against clean new rope, but if I were to do that I would probably need some help, witnesses even.

Just a thought,
