Shiva Rex!

[GarySoneji]

Is the blade thickness about that of the Sebenza?

Yes. it was difficult to photograph due the the spns being rounded so I used my scrofa.

Looks great next to that FBM to ya proker....

Thanks, I thought so, too

Hey, is it light enough to be a decent necker?

I think so, but the length would make it a little ackward, at least for me, anyway.

Can someone post a side by side picture with a Culti?

What one earth is the use for that blade other than collecting purposes ?

I think there a lot of possibilities. :thumbup: Shiva is heck ya Different breed. I don't think that going to stand in the way of possible uses; that's up to the owner who's going to show no regret on acquiring this rare gem.

Necker, underarm, horizontal belt carry, additional add on to a larger knife sheath...

Wherever finesse is needed, concealed or in addition to.

 

[adamlau]

No that is a shanker for sure .

I'm pretty sure I dreamt I was a ninja last night? And the Shiva Rex was the equivalent to my throwing stars...it was pretty cool

I just came home from work and this was in my mail box.

Thanks for the preview. Hey, where'd that FBM come from? That's a pretty sweet looking combo.

I am making a spring loaded kydex sheath that will strap to my forearm
and deploy the Shiv into my hand when I make the Spiderman webslinger gesture

Hahahahaha!

That would be awesome on those rainy fly fishing days!

LEO backup knife
Urban defense tool
Hiker's backup
Fruit knife
Pumpkin carver
Hobby knife (think X-acto knife)
seatbelt cutter
small branch cutter
fishing knife
box cutter
serrated utility knife
FOGO steak knife ...

...Etc. :thumbup: It's lighter than my EDC XM-18. In a sheath on your belt, you could easily forget it was there until needed.

 

[bmilla35]

Mine just arrived!! It's a sweet little knife, maybe i'll have to hold on to if after all. Also, for some reason surprising to me, I found that the serrated edge is wayyy more sharp than the straight edge

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.................................


Thanks, how about one more shot with them both pointing in the same direction and lining up the two lower holes?

.

 

[steelnut]

Are they all left handed?
I wonder why?

 

[Amy-0]

Sweet Pic and is was great talking to you on the phone today

Sorry for the quality. Backup camera - battery dead on main

 

[J85909266]

Hmm, looks they they could have been ground from Culti blanks.

 

[avidknifeusersf]

Yes i wonder why the logo is on the opposite side... Its a crazy interesting knife... like an optical illusion almost.

Looking at it, I wonder if the one jerry made for the military was double edged or had a sharpened swedged... that would be MEAN.

Also the pictures dont do justice to the way the blade curves at the end.... (like the opposite of a recurve).

I'm really glad I got this one. I'm not sure there will be anything else like it from Busse.

In case you are wondering about turning your cultie into a Shiva......I am pretty sure that the Shiva is made out of a Cultie Blank. You may lose some spine thickness by changing the profile because the cultie is already full flat ground. A plain edge Shiva would be pretty cool :thumbup:

 

[J. Rosa]

A plain edge recurve shiva would be even cooler!!!!!!!!!
