NMFBM or KILLA ZILLA?

the khukuri design requires more skill to master, but once proficiency is achieved, it can chop better than a straight blade......


so, in the hands of a master the khuk would probably chop a bit better.....in the hands of most people, the nmfbm would be the better chopper, simply because most people lack the skill to chop properly with a khuk......


i would prefer the nmfbm, because they are easier to use......i've owned many khuks, and one bad thing about them is that the handles have a tendency to twist out of your hand if you strike at the wrong angle......it is really easy to lose your grip on a khukuri.....and it is really bad to lose your grip on a 2-3 pound knife......
 
After the SAR4, I can't justify just having the Khuk just to have it. It's more than I'll ever need in a Basic 9 or CGFBM (or SHBM for that matter). VERY cool, but not what I could justify.
 
For me... it's like the MOAB.
Cool to have for the collection, but I doubt I would use it over a Mistress.

Right now... I'll probably pass on both of them (MOAB & Killa Z). :o
But sometimes, I think I change my mind quicker than Jerry does. :D :p

Time will tell.

The NMFBM is my axe, camp knife for fire and shelter tasks, and protection when hiking about in the woods of our great Rocky Mountains! I couldnt ask for more and dont see myself trading it in for a Killazilla. However there is a spot on my wall next to my satin AK that is a bite bare.

the zilla might chop better but i think its easier to baton with a strait blade and a little easier to carry maybe.

my NMFBM is gonna have to do 'cause i'm BROKE.no work.

i've batoned with a lot of khukuries, and being bent does not detract from the ability.

said khukuri also made the baton that was used on it.
 
that is the first time I have seen that video of the bull. I have heard it many times.

I wish I had the scratch to get a zilla. I also wish i had the scratch to get a bunch of other knives (oh, I don't know, maybe the sar4le that is mocking me right now)
 
Sometimes you need to be flexible and rotate old for new but my NMFBM is NOT in the frame for this to get a Zilla....other knives may be....there are many in the smaller range which are each as good as the other and can be narrowed down....but having those two for me is what Busse is all about....ultimate knives for combat and survival....
