3 SIEGLES ARRIVED YESTERDAY---

I THOUGHT FOR SURE MY WIFE WOULD LIKE THE GREEN HANDLED ONE THE BEST-BUT SHE ACTUALLY LIKED THE MIDDLE ONE BEST

THE BOTTOM ONE(WHICH I NOW CALL "SWORD OF ZEUS" AFTER MY GERMAN SHEPHERD PUPPY IS BAD TO THE BONE.

WILL TEST ALL 3 LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND POST PHOTOS

ORDERED SEVERAL MONTHS AGO--AND WORTH THE WAIT!!!!

 

[pageophile]

Nice score William ! ! !

Can hardly wait for the field test

 

[WILLIAM.M]

TOOK MY PUPPY "ZEUS"(4.5 MONTH OLD GERMAN SHEPHERD) AND THE 3 NEW SIEGLES OUT FOR A HIKE AND SOME CHOPPING:thumbup:

ALL OF THEM ARE SWEET

LIKED THE GREEN HANDLED ONE AND THE RECURVE A LOT MORE THAN I EXPECTED TO...

BOTH OF THEM ALLOW YOU TO HOLD THE REAR OF THE HANDLE FOR BETTER CHOPPING(BUTT IS ROUNDED)--

THE BIG ONE(WHICH I CALL THE "SWORD OF ZEUS") IS BY FAR THE BEST BILL SIEGLE CHOPPER I HAVE EVER USED

5/16" THICK--HEAVY--BUT NOT SO LONG IT'S UNCONTROLABLE

VERY COMFORTABLE--AND BITES DEEP!!!!

CHECK OUT THE SLIDESHOW

THANKS AGAIN BILL

SINCERELY
