I am impressed with the Taliwacker. I've owned around 30 Busse and kin and this one is a keeper. Positives: It has a perfect handle, satin finish, light weight and good looking. Negatives: haven't figured that one out yet. In hand it feels like it weighs the same as a war dog. It's light enough you'll carry it. I like it more than the TGLB which is a similar sized knife. I think its sized right for a pig hunting/zombie slaying knife. I like it's thinner stock and think it would be hard to damage the tip even with hard use. It would handy to carry in the woods for those who like a longer blade. Homerun.
