The HOGB8 Thread

[W-457]

Just got my B8 in today! User pics coming soon :thumbup:

Oh and since you people know how to get stuff done... How about some help for us B13ers please

 

[Blade Runner 7]

Yeah! Please help us get it done! Basics rule!

 

[Will York]

All in for bigger and better Basics! :thumbup:

 

[Tom Kanik]

Works for me!:thumbup::thumbup:

 

[Tom Kanik]

Patience... it's a BIG lawn!!!

I guess 7 acres is a big lawn!

I checked the two B-8 Combat Grades; both are .21 thick at the spine near the handle, though the sage is slightly thicker near the tip....Sage weighs 13.15 ozs., while the Black weighs 12.7 ozs.

You're just teasing Stumpy now.

 

[Stump Buster]

A saber B8 would be sweet and Busse wouldn't even have to tease me. They could simply build it, send me an e-mail saying it was finished, I'd pay for it, they'd ship it, I'd photograph the unboxing, I'd beat the c^@p out of it...err, give it some luvin' and....




There would be peace and quiet on the B8 thread!!!



Until then...

Specs:

INFI - 8" x .275" - Saber Ground - Swedge - SAR style jimping - a slightly lower drop at the nose than the LE's came with - ASYM or Convex edge - choiless - flat ricasso with SAR5/HOGMUK talon hole - Tan Res-C.

BRING IT ON Mr. B!!!


In my dreams, maybe only in my dreams.

THANKS for the info Tom!!!!:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

Yes, 7 acres does eat up time when you use your kin blades to keep it from getting out of control!!! Especially when using your bearcub hack. (oops, was I supposed to not let big Dave know about that stray?)

 

[Tom Kanik]

You're quite welcome Stumpy!:thumbup:

 

[Stump Buster]

Can't let this get to page 2. Gotta keep the heat on for the HOGB8.

Maybe I'd have better luck asking the Swamp for a True .25"+ INFI Battle Rat? Now THAT's an idea... they released the RMD in INFI, why not a Classic like the BR?!?!?

Hmmmm.

 

[Tom Kanik]

An Infi Battle Rat would be cool, though I already have a couple in SR-101.:thumbup:

 

[littlehoot]

Stumpy! that's the ticket!

 

[Will York]

A hybrid--I like it! :thumbup:

You guys are killing me with laughter.....when I get ready to prune my 40 acres of Old Pecan trees I'll call and you can come help.... BTW just put in another 30 acres of baby trees should be 5 years before they are ready to yield any weight...but they have already met Mr. INFI....

 

[Tom Kanik]

I let the cows prune the rest of the grass on my 165 acres.

 

[Stump Buster]

Combat Grade Choiless INFI BATTLE TRAMP Anyone?!?!?


Not sure I like it more than the HOG-B8, but it sure looks ALL Business!!!

I can just picture it Nekkid!!!

That's a good-looking knife, and you're exactly right--ALL BUSINESS!!!

I'm in for a couple or five. :thumbup:

 

[Stump Buster]

Don't know if you can wrap Res-C around INFI this thick, but...

The Busse folks like their bang sticks as much as they like their steel, so how's about making the CG HOG-B8 from .308" stock with a 7.62" blade???
