A lot of guys here would prefer something new, preferably along the lines of a Bolo or a Khukri. This is an old debate tho. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

I wouldn't mind a another DFCG run, BUT I'd much rather see a sword (like the Busse AK) or Khukuri.

I've been looking at the DF's on the Bladeforums Exchange and drooling. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sad.gif" alt="" /> It would really be nice to get one, so another DF run would be great. I'm going to start saving up my nickels and dimes...in hopes that they might be re-issued sometime in the future. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" /> On the topic of the next knife, has anyone ever given thought to the Yard making a machete? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> I know it would be quite a bit more expensive than picking up a Tram or a Collins, but it would probably be the absolute last one you would ever buy, because it would last you, your kids, their kids, etc.... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

...On the topic of the next knife, has anyone ever given thought to the Yardmaking a machete? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> I know it would be quite a bit more expensive than picking up a Tram or a Collins, but it would probably be the absolute last one you would ever buy, because it would last you, your kids, their kids, etc.... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> As one who paid $150 for a custom machete, I would buy one. But then I am a machete kind of guy. The problem is, the inexpensive Tramontinas and more expensive Condors are darned near unbreakable anyway, and they work just fine. I am such a machete freak, I'd buy a 1/8" thick NMFBM in a minute, but would anyone else?
Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

I think the re-ground BRKT Golok HD did which gave a cutlass/bolo blade would take some beating in the machete stakes....VERY useful with the point and belly curve if you needed it for real...BUT...I am all for a DFLEX though...I cancelled and last minute re-ordered a NMFBM and am pleased with it and glad I changed my mind....and a DFLE done in the same vain with a comfy Res C grip....well it could be a winner just like the NMFBM ....an ultimate SYKCO DF!
