FB05, 1 week review...
OK, guess I've had long enough to give an indepth view on this high preformance matter seperator...
Handle: still want a choil on it! The handle is quite comfy for long term use. made supper(pizza) with it on sunday, cut everything with it.
Blade/Edge: 1 week, and still shaves in single pass... they did it right!(yet again). I've been using the softer of our 3 cutting boards, but it still does a job on edges. Even carved the roast we had on saturday(carefully as to not hit the fork). Using it at work and home in the kitchen, just clean & oil when I get home. I like the belly in the kitchen. Makes a great size for moving chopped food into a pan.
Sheath: still don't like it. payday is tomorrow, and it's going off to eric. have it all back in just under 2 weeks if all goes well.
Overall: well worth the factory price. Might grab a spare of this and toss it in my gear. Then if I somehow manage to break one in the bush, I'll have a spare.
gun conátrol n. definition 1. The theory that a woman found dead in an alley, raped and strangled with her pantyhose, is somehow morally superior to a woman explaining to police how her attacker received that fatal bullet wound. 2. The ability to hit what you are aiming at. 3. The first key step of a corrupt political agenda where good citizens are disarmed so that a dictatorship may replace a democracy in the future.

Sal> quick question: what does the fb05 have for a tang? Wondering if it's possible to have a custom maker put on something like a stag or wood handle on it. Just think the little more weight in the rear would be nice.

Thinking it would have to be 2 slabs, with a milled(or chisled) pocket for the tang. J&B weld and J&W "pins"(holes drilled both slabs, filled with epoxy and pressed together).
Be a bit of sanding to get it fitting the same sheath(or a custom job done after to solve that problem)... would also get a custom fit for the user's hand.
think the main problem would be getting the FRN handle off. Think I read somewhere a guy took the handle off his endura, got a new respect for the material.
