Never seen a 3D movie and from what I have heard a lot of folks say, not sure I really want to. Clash of the Titans and Priest was pretty cool in 3D. Wish we would have seen Avatar in 3D though.

The new 3D films are pretty cool. But you cannot remake Conan. So very true <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/barf.gif" alt="" />

Since we are on the subject of Steel based cultures, two blades I SHOULD have gotten but didn't, a B11 and OR a Hogmuk. I have the B11 and will have the MUK soon--from Busse. I do have a Scrap MUK and a DFLE and DFCG. Great combo!!!

Are the new 3D movies really that good compared to the older ones? No comparison!

Oh well I will survive without them. But I think I would rather have a B11 than a DF. Blasphemy I know, but I just don't think I need as heavy a chopper as the DF is. And besides, If I had a B11 I would have at least one of each Bussekin blades. The B11 is nice because it allows a better blade for areas we are in--IMHO. Now a DFLE is close to a B11. But the DFLE are up in price so close to the B11 that it is moot.

Nice collection MB. I like the size of my Cupid but the rather squared off prybar end digs into my hand depending upon how I hold it. Now the Warden, no problem and I like it as well. I understand that. I will wrap my Scrapivores when they get here. If I don't like it I will move it on as I love my Swamp Wardens.

Looks like the DF did well. As expected. The DF is heavier and saber grind-not to mention that was the blade started off while fresh.

Yeah, I'm surprised that the B11 took so many more chops though. Even though it's lighter the added length I thought would have compensated just a bit more for the lesser weight. From my experience the B11 needs a good convex to really shine. Remember the wood that Myke was chopping is pine. Pine acts differently than other woods--think of how different axes work when in use, and how many different styles there are.

Mass definately helps but I thought the B-11 would have afared a bit better. I think it would do better on regular vegatation though. We have a winner, not a wiener!

Yeah I have only chopped something that thick with my DF maybe three times. That is why I keep saying for "us" in our areas the B11 and DFLE is the better blade. Ask Vic for his ideas about the differences in GA. BTW, the M9LE is better for your area if you are not just chopping with it.
