Sounds like you need to do a smatchet and folder ganza.

I think 200 prototypes I might get lucky enough for one if I fight some hogs. I'll have my tnt in one hand and f16 in the other.

Exactly. Which ones are impossible to get in the secondary market

I read this as " Smatchet Folder " instead of " Smatchet AND Folder "....Pretty sure peoples heads would explode if a Smatchet Folder came out of the Busse compound before either of the the two, on their own.

I'm a lean machine, no vaccine in my bloodstream
COVID 19 I couldn't catch it
But my one big INFI dream remains unseen
I just want my Busse Combat Smatchet.

If you don’t get it, thank the vaccinated
Its all of us whereby C19 was ablated
You’ll not be prepared, and badly you’ll fare
Like a newborn fawn in front of a bear.

Hope you don’t die from something preventable
So you can enjoy a smatchet presentable.


Seriously, crap poetry aside, you better hope (and thought and prayer) you don’t catch that sh!t without the vaccine. It straight up killed 3 of my relatives and 5 of my close friends. All of my friends and family who caught it after being vaccinated reported mild flu-like symptoms (including myself).

The difference in experiences are wild.
Some extreme, some quite mild.
I’ve known a few who copped the Wu-flu,
And all, save one, easily pulled through.
The one we lost had crossed the line.
She smoked and “partied” the whole sick time.
The dozens of others wore a different shoe.
Vaxxed or not, claimed it no worse than a flu.
Condolences, friend, to the loved ones lost.
Survival seems to come as a simple coin toss.
But don’t swallow everything that you have been fed.
Studies have proven the vax doesn’t stop the spread.
 
14!!! i dig this big time..
9-10 inch blade 5 inch handle.
I’ll go there and help you grind them for free Jerry. No Joke.

Attention all Smatchetorians!!!!

I have been drawing Smatchet designs for over 1,000 years!!! I know, that seems like a long time, but it dates back to my early days as a knifemaker and I'm pretty sure that was over 1,000 years ago!!!

I'm going to post a series of different renditions that I have drawn in just the last century for discussion and feedback purposes.

Here are the rules:

[ 1 ] You MUST be drinking something! (Alcohol is optional)
[ 2 ] No Drawings!. . . . Use your words!
[ 3 ] I will put all drawings in this Original Post and will post when I have added more.

Let's Drink!!!

Jerry

Here are the first 2 of many Drawings:

You asked for it longer . . . so here are some 11" long blade models!

#s 4-9 all have 11 inch blades and are 16.5" OAL
#s 3-5 have 2.5" Wide blades.
#s 6-9 have 3.2" Wide blades!!! That's almost a 1/4" wider than the WTF!!!!

#3 is the 8 1/2 inch blade model like #s 1 and 2.
#4 same blade width as #3 but is 11 inches long and 2.5" wide
#5 same as #4 with CBT
#6 has same width ricasso as 3-5 but has a 3.2" wide blade!
#7 is the same as #6 but with CBT
#8 Has an expanded ricasso
#9 same as #8 but with CBT

Below is my post #50 on page 3 of this thread! This is the 11" blade with the expanded fuller!

Smatchet%20%238%20Mod%20Fuller-XL.jpg



Here are a few more. . . . All of these are shown with an 8 1/2" Blade and all approx. 14" OAL

Below is my post #110 on page 6 of this thread!

Here's a new one that incorporates a number of suggestions.

Choils and a nice palm swell for comfort when chopping.

Enhanced fuller.

Devastating pommel with a small flat for pounding.

Here's another one that I just finished! :eek::thumbsup::cool:

It took me the entire bottle. . . .errr. . . I mean "night" to finish this one.:eek:o_O:confused:

Again, using several suggestions, I have included the shallow choils, feather vane bevels, palm swell handle, rounded pommel, and I moved the talon holes and the handles much further out in order to make the handles cover more of the front guard area!

I really like the 'Feather Vane" bevel on this 11 inch long blade!:cool::thumbsup::cool:

Let's Drink!. . .. . I'm going to bed! :cool::thumbsup:

Jerry :D

24.... it is just doing things for me....

Can we get it right before the end of the world boss??? Please?
 
As they never always used to say back in the ol frontier days; Only a dam fool would try and rush a Smatchet.
 
For me the two winners so far are No 6 and No 17. Both could be made to serve different functions. No 6 being traditional, could be 0.22 inch thick 3.2 inch wide and 10.5 inch blade length. No. 17 being more of a chopper could be 1/4 inch thick and same length and width. No reason why both couldn't be made concurrently.
 
I didnt read the whole thread, but....where we at with the process? Did the Boss pick one ? Or is it gona be a surprise?
 
I sobered up for a little bit. When is this coming? I don't have any plans for tomorrow

+1 😎
 
Make a light one that can actually do efficient thrusts and jabs, and not just a full arm swing to chop

Easy to grip handle, and easy to draw and use perhaps more critical than blade width, per the original intent...
 
I like the handle on 3 but a mix of the blade 15 and 17 and reduce it to 6” long blade
