Maybe tomorrow (and of course tomorrow my answer will be the same).How 'bout now?
BG MOAB / INFI MOAB / Basic MOAB!

Supposedly BG or SR101 steel is 52100, but I don't know if Jerry ever confirmed that. Concerning the cost, here are some recent models:... So has anyone thought about what a battle grade Moab would cost ? I know It’s a guestamite , just curious. I know Some are a lot more smarter than me about the different steels used in blade making. Using original Moab specs. Any guesses ? I know this guestsmite means nothing but I think It’s fun to hear what others would guess. 14” +&~ blade @41 thick. Whatever BG steel is. Thanks in advance.
My first choice would be a Basic MOAB in either INFI or SR101 (maybe both ); second choice would be a BG MOAB (maybe all 3 ). But like I have been saying, BG MOAB / INFI MOAB / Basic MOAB! (something for everyone)If an INFI option was not available.. I would be devistated. Gotta offer both..GOTTA
front to back, or side to side?South Florida is tough on SR101 but I think I would have to get one just to see how long it takes to chop a semi in half with a knife. ...
I could not agree more! I love the Basics, and a Basic MOAB would be THE ULTIMATE BASIC!...
I will 100% order at least 1 Basic MOAB, even if I have to sell every folder in my collection! Basics make some of the best users ever and that MOAB is a site to behold!
Do it, Jerry!

Let's have a BG MOAB/INFI MOAB/BASIC MOAB Chop In in South Florida and quarter it! You guys from all the cold states could come down here next winter and beat some coating off your newly recieved MOABs in 80° weather, although with the speed the crew has been pumping out blades this year, we may have them by summer, in which case, we'd be better off meeting up somewhere a bit cooler and less humid.
On the plus side you’re close to the shop.I could use some 80° weather . In SW Ohio today's high will be about 55° and the high on Monday about 25° .
Jerry says the shop is closed to the public, he claims due to government contracts, but I think the real reason is he is trying to keep us away from his JW Blue stash.On the plus side you’re close to the shop.
