Great piece.
I love it, weight...smeight. If I had to I'd wear it, I'd wear it on my chest to add to armor protection. And if yer're gonna hack somebody up it does give ya the range. My old teams motto was throw your biggest knife last. That one would be the last.

DJ-
Looking at the pictures of that monster Bowie made me want to yell "This is...SPARTA!" but I thought better of it, and will let mildot and mcarey yell that out.
Oh, does that thing come with a trailer, or do you have to purchase it separately?

Thanks, guys.
LarryW: That Cabellas knife is actually large than mine. And I wouldn't want to use theirs to hunt hogs. You want your hog knife to be as bombproof as possible. Stag handles on a stick tang made out of 420? No thanks. And don't get me started on the grinds on that knife.
Blitzzz: Extra reach is the reasoning behind the handles. You get an extra three and a half inches if your holding the handles near the pommel.
x SF med: LOL!!! That's awesome. And really? A trailer? C'mon, man. A guy who humps a 200lb ruck should have no problem with this blade.

Nice looking but I'd get rid of the "charging handle".

x SF med: Nope, but I'll be at Blade in Atlanata, the USN show in Vegas, and hopefully SHOT.
Team Sergeant: Yeah, it's only really practical if you plan on getting into lots of sword fights. And it's removable/reversible.  The quillion was also a colossal pain in the ass to fabricate, so I may never do another.
My nylon guy says he can't do what I need him to do, so now I've gotta find somebody else. Grrrrrr...
