it would be very cool if those were real.
Are those going to be a factory item? It would really resolve the handle issues with those blades.
Not too hard to do that to the stock ones if have access to a machine or two.
(obviously I like them, they're close to what you'd get if you crossed my hunter with my hiker model).
As long as they're gonna be made...
Peeps been asking for 3's and 4's without choils for some time.
Pointy partook of the Kracken. And the Bracken. Probably some other things that rhyme as well. Onward!
Oh hell, that was a total pre-coffee brain fart on my part. I meant Bracken and not Kracken.
Pointy and I rode the Bracken. Release the Bracken!

I love it. I may sell two of my ESEE 3's to get those. Sans choils, they look a little like that DC-6 that ESEE is supposed to produce.
I have a 5" Busse that is very similar in shape. It had horrible scales that I sanded down, and Garth at Busse was nice enough to retube them for me.
I had a RAT-3 that I got rid of because of the choil. Something like that is exactly what I wanted.
How did that work out for ya?Shhhh, don't tell! BTW your Chiefs are gonna get stomped by my Raiders on Sunday...!
