Looks pretty, but will it stand up to hard work?
ha ha
That's the right one
Paul Moore that makes my blades is outta my state . He lines in Columbus, Mississippi
Just wanted everyone to know after 5 years of "Hard Use", GZilla's just getting tuffer!
My design, but it's toughness, performance, & superior edge retention goes to my Bro, Paul Moore(PMoore) As far as Functional, Hard Use knives go, you can't be beat Paul!

Dang! Man! I just came across this thread and the more I read and looked at your pics I thought he's going to break/tear up this knife. I'll say one thing you sure have tested that knife pretty good. I may have to just get one.

Thanks man, she's one tough girl! Let me know & I'll hook u up with Paul. Your looking at about $450, cheap for a handmade knife of this size & function ability, plus the sheath is probably $200 sheath. Paul's HT is magic bro

Good lord that thing is incredibly impressive. I love the design and the fit and finish. Not only does it look great, but it looks dangerously capable.
Thank u my friend. I designed it in 09 , PMoore built it in 2010...it's seen some serious Hard Use, & you're right, it's dangerously capable! If anyone is interested in one, PM me & I'll hook u up with Paul. Thanks again

That lady with the knife picture is a good one.
The maker should have that on his shop wall

Thanks, and I'll keep that in mind with Paul. While I do like your sheath and leather in general I've been leaning toward the kydex sheaths these days. I think there a little more tougher and water resistant overall and I once had a real sharp blade come right through a leather sheath. So I tend to shy away from them for hard use these days or woods carry in general.
He will build you the same knife with Kydex. As good as he is with leather, sheath making is his pet peave...he'll make what you want bro.

If I'm looking at it right, the tip is more tanto-ish than a bowie. It's thick up to close to the edge, unlike a classic bowie that thins out starting from the belly.
It's a clip point, but I designed the tip to Roll thick...pointy, but with the tip strength of a Drop or Tanto. Thanks for noticing .
That must be one tough knife from all your pics of that blade getting the snot beat out of it and it's still hasn't broken yet. Someday I wouldn't mine having one but I'm not sure about that choil? How do you like it and if you had a choice would you have gotten it without the choil now? Thanks for the awesome pics. :thumbup:
