Heavy Ordnance Grade Basic 8 . . . HOGB8 . . . Specs, Pricing, & Pics!!!

The weight of the Standard blade prototype came in at a feather light 17.5 ounces! :eek::thumbsup::cool:

I did not get a chance to weigh the others but I have no doubt that the Long Clip will be near or below the 16 ounce mark!:eek::cool::thumbsup:

Float like a War Feather, sting like a Nuclear Missile!!!:eek::thumbsup::cool:

Let's Drink!:thumbsup:

Thank you these are some great points, some of which I hadn't thought of before. I had wondered the same thing as well maybe it's just a crowd pleaser. The pull is strong! :thumbsup::thumbsup: Maybe the full clip is the way to go then no??

That's the frustration, both those blades are going to have a completely different feel to them with that much stock removed on the long clip. I have no clue what I'm gaining or losing unless I can hold one. Rolling the dice, I rather just save the $55 and gain more infi on the standard blade.....i'm frugal that way

Update::thumbsup: well now the question is not weight but balance, with Rec-c handles and small tang this is Blade weight

"(*The BIG DC Finish will be hand ground along the outer perimeter and will have light machine marks visible through the Double Cut finish.)"

If I order one, which I probably will I'll order it in that finish.

No shyt that's just unreal!!! :eek: Thanks for the weight info sir! :thumbsup::thumbsup::)
 
I think its a great chance for people with smaller hands, to enjoy a fat blade, without worrying about handle being too thick

Man that's an impressive slab of INFI but damn those small basic handles. Would love something that thick in a different model.

Good to know!
Thanks
 
Something to note, many have called for years for certain models to be offered with res c handles, but they didn't really work, design wise because of the RES c tang requirements

Maybe that's changing.
 
Has there been a picture posted of this Porker's Backstraps yet?

Would LOVE to see a full profile picture of the HOGB8 WarFeather with another WarFeather positioned next to it and angled for a spine shot.

THANKS AGAIN BOSSMAN!!!
 
I was just about to ask to confirm about the handles.
Thank You Boss

Thanks Again for this release, i just cant believe it will be Fatter than my CS WTF lol Gona Have the new Fattest King in the house. I got a feeling this will Substitute my most used .32 NMFSH
