Something I've been working on, size comparison

That’s amazing—thank you!

 

That is really cool! That perspective answers a lot of questions.
One thing that sticks out to me right off is the point comparison between the FM14 and the Gladius - I'm not sure of the right term, with bullets it's called the "ogive" the geometry of the curving transition from straight edge to the point - the FM14 has a much more pointy profile- I really dig that a lot!

 

I have a Short Butaniku.....
Your pic makes me yearn for a Long one.
Thank you.

 

That's awesome!

I'm not sure if I'm the only one interested in this kind of comparison, but I would love to see the blades lined up at where the hilt starts.

 

Nice analogy—FM14’s long ogive would have a higher ballistic coefficient.

In that vein, the Hognose has almost a “meplat”.

 

Nice work!

 

Thanks for the visual. Looks great

 

Very cool! Shows just what a beast the Hognose really is!

What CAD software are you using?

 

Cool, that's one I'm not familiar with.

 

One thing you don't realize about the gladius until you hold it, you can grip at the pummel for added reach. Most people only consider blade length. it's formidable and a good bit longer than the fmv14 when you consider that . Same for AK 47.

 

I have an Ak47 and now want the short butaniku!

 

very cool.

 

This is some really good stuff. Well done and thank for sharing.

FMV14 looks promising as an addition to a Gladius.

I’m really liking how the handle on the FMV8 seems to be shaping up. It appears to have a handle sized right for a dagger.

This makes me yearn for a short butaniku.

 

Same here.

 

Excellent work, thank you. These kinds of pictures help me a lot, especially if I actually have one of the blades pictured.

I would like this too. After looking at it more closely, I realized that the blade length of the AK-47 is closer to the Short Butaniku than I thought.

 

Wow! That is a wonderful, useful graphic!

Nice job; and thanks so much for doing it!

 

I hope you don't mind, N850GT; but I did a quickie in Paint....just selected and scooted the images over to line up the talon holes:

 

This is fantastic! I've searched for something like this before on multiple occasions, but had given it up as a lost cause.
Thank you for making this, I'm saving it to show people.
If you ever make any more comparisons, please post them.

... also, if you ever feel like nicely arranging all 50+ drawings you've made into something that resembles a poster, that could be really cool. Just a thought.
