Now that I've triggered
Cobalt
with the "R" word...
Here ya go...
Almost 10 yrs. from it's inception...the Battle Pappy seems to still be somewhat of an enigma...
How is that handle attached?
Why so thick of stock?
Is the guard INFI?
Why is the guard shaped that way?
Why is the tang/ricasso so long?
Has anyone used their's......................yet?
From my exhaustive search <5 min-- I'm a lazy bastard with short attention span, so sue me> of the prodigious Pappy archives here...I still haven't found answers to these <and many other> Battle Pappy questions.
So using that as a theme, here's some more BP pics that may raise even more questions than provide answers...
yeah, I cropped the tip, I know, I know...I'd retake but I've lost the light...
groovy, man...
almost a third of an inch of hogjaw...
sweet swedge...check
that enigmatic double guard...
the first CS model...I think?
Field Grade?....really?
can't tell how that's attached...
still can't tell...
no mystery here...that handle is AMAZIN...I love triangular handles that force your hand fore-ward against a secure guard<cough> HG55 <cough>
