Blade Show was worth it!

I HATE Atlanta, but it was worth it to get this :)

Was able to meet Eric and the crew, no Sal though :(

Also was able to check out the Chief, I hope they dont change it at all. I would buy several of them right this second!

^ Excellent! Glad it was worth it!

One of these years I'll make it to Blade or the SHOT show.

I'm not sure what to make of that blade shape, but that Rhino is growing on me. . .

The Chief, as in the long-rumored one? Tell us more.

Imagine a longer Native 5, same size handle, just longer. It was very nice, I hope it's exactly what the production version looks like. It's a definite buy for me.

Off work and packing up to make a 1 hour drive to hang out at the Pit now. Was not motivated at work all day seeing pics posted from BLADE. At least I can attend tomorrow. Digging that Rhino and hope it feels good in my hand.

Quite a bit longer than the Shaman, but not as tall. 4 inch range maybe.

I would call it slender.

Does it resemble the photo in this thread (viewtopic.php?t=37779#p490847)?

If it would, that would be an almost guarantee buy for me.

I'm drawing a blank on the exact blade, I want to say ffg, but I could be mistaken. I have a bit of information overload.

I do know that it feels the same in the hand as the Native 5 I had with me. It was the best surprise of Blade Show.
