Brownie, when are you planning to do the wrist/forearm cut test? Just excited to see the video that's all.

Please post pics of you holding El Here :-)

Twice the weight of the El Hefe bowie at 14.8 ounces. It's got some weight to it, should be good for chopping.

,
I will be getting to that testing in the next few weeks hopefully.

Brownie, I don't think that is the Actual Weight. I think that is shipping weight which includes the sheath box and all.

OK, the "Dundee Bowie" weighs Exactly 1.5 lbs, (or 24 Ounces.)
I used the Toledo scales at my Local Convenience Store!
That weight is The Knife Alone!
I knew it was shipping weight that was shown!
