For those that are curious, XL gloves are generally snug on my mittens (those are my mittens in the pics).

It's a tough comparison when hands like yours belong on a grizzly bear. and yes, those are my hands in the pics, I do exist!

How does it compare to the very first Swamp blade, the Taliwhacker?

I prefer the free rein, more balanced, more compact blade with same length, the comfort of the handle is better (in all positions), i like the guard shape handle
I will buy a second if it stays long enough on the website

Just got my free rein 12 and 28. Now I have the whole set of 3 and I love them. I like the 12 way more than I thought I would. It's very choppy for a blade that isn't a chopper. And the 28 is much pointyer than the free rein 16. I thought it would be the same just slightly longer blade and handle. But the blade profile is different.

Does the Free Rein 16 have a broader blade than the 28? Debating getting one to complete my set.

Also does anyone have close pics of a Comp FR-12 to compare to my stonewashed? Debating getting the comp version but wondering if stonewashed is comp with stonewash treatment afterwards.

Yes the 16 is broader, especially towards the tip.

These are Comp finish.
