pic comparison request F-16 & TNT-15

It was raining when I took this. As you can see, the Maroon Micarta on the F-16 shows the water a lot more than the Res-C on the TNT-15:

The F-16 has a melt-down treatment that doesn't show up very well in this picture:

Don't post much anywhere anymore, but figured I'd share some comparison pics and impressions

Impressions (haven't used it yet):

It's pretty damn slick. Very light and handles well. I don't feel like the handle is too slick, it's not super super rubber grippy and definitely solid, but the texture grips well and doesn't feel like it slides as much as the F16 (which I have to use grippy gloves with). It also feels less like a chopper than the F16, meant for branches, brush, etc. not for dropping trees but we know it would do it. The F16 so far seems balanced better for larger items just like branches or for chopping, have had mixed results using on sticker bushes and such. The edge was solid from the factory but a little stropping on the cardboard box it was shipped it did the job and became a lot more toothy.

The idea of having a set, smaller than the 15 and larger, I definitely support. 9-10" on the small with a single handed grip, and a larger possibly 20" with a full 2-2.5 hand grip...... It's a very nice design but also clearly inspired by traditional swords so would be really cool for a set.
