FITZEN TANK!!!

Fitzen Tank made by: John Fitzen

Song: Gortoz A Ran-J'Attends...Hans Zimmer (Blackhawk Down)

A knife right out of the Hyborian Age...

"Between the time when the oceans drank Atlantis and the rise of the sons of Aryus , there was an age undreamed of and onto this CONAN destined to bear the jeweled crown of Aquilonia upon a troubled brow...It is I, his chronicler, who alone can tell thee of his saga. let me tell you of the days of high adventure!"

...this knife belongs in the days of Conan...lol!

2010 version of the Fitzen Tank-
Specifications...

Item Number:SK0010
Blade Steel: A2
Length: 16" (according to website/mine is 15 1/2")
Thickness: 1/4"
Weight: 2.5 lbs

Spanish notch to snap an opponents blade. Hell the "crossada" (quillions/cross-guard) could help there too!
Skull-CRUSHER pommel!
Kydex and Leather sheath

Price:$475.00 (according to website/I paid $500.00)

I was surprised to discover this in the mail today. It took a little over (6) months from the time I ordered (to make it) until now. Amazing since he, Fitzen, was making only (10) models of this custom knife.
And at the same time making 6-7 other models like the Frankenstein, Predator, Bulldog, etc...70-80 knives in different stages of fabrication...WOW!

John's a cool guy easy to talk to...we spoke about once a month discussing the progress of my knife, guns, women, and life...lol!
Called him about 1230 hrs. Hawaii time (today) to thank him even though he was with a customer took a few minutes to shoot the sh*t.
I'll definitely buy another blade from his selection!

[mmesimon27]

how long did it take to get it. I'm going on 6 months so far for mine.

Thanks for the video.

[HELLZZARMY]

@mmesimon27 ...just a little over (6) months...(6) months and (1) week.

[Gdub330]

Make it viewable for iPhone please

[HELLZZARMY]

@Gdub330 ...not my doing...youtubes. I hate when they do that. I like to use my iPhone to check my videos too!

Under syndication where I can edit my preferences I can't even click "yes" or "no" to make it available for mobile devices.

They've done this on several videos ...I guess when you use copyrighted music.

[GearBuyersGuide]

Another look at a great knife, well done..

Thanks for the video.. you bring us all the cool knives I can't afford (yet)

[HELLZZARMY]

@GearBuyersGuide ...thanks Bruddah!

[HELLZZARMY]

@1stOPFOR ...not much for a custom knife. A Strider SMF is $500.00 and this Fitzen Tank is 5X its size. I think it's more than worth it but, "to each their own" huh.

[HELLZZARMY]

@stealthbeast ...Take out the 1st part of that sentence and insert..."obama is president"...(were all...) lol!

Naw buddy not my friends only the scumbags! Hey this would give a Rajah I or II a run for it's money huh...the Rajah I is big but, I rather be the one using this fixed blade monster...lol!

[gamerdude141]

AHHHHHH ORGASAM

[TheJoshy1992]

Id like it if it werent for the handguard.. I'd definitely take that off as soon as possible.

[spikekrossa]

God!!!!, what wicked knife. Thanx for sharing.

This has been one of my "alltime" music soundtrack songs ever. the first time I saw that movie I was moved for like a week. was pretty emotionally charged for a kid. sick shit and fitzen has the best handmade stuff.

[SuperR3volver]

You know you can appreciate custom knives when you almost cry watching this.

[sksman71]

Fitzen makes some beautiful blades.One of these days im going to get me that TANK! cool video

[Sk8brdr323]

Love the music dude ... I'm going to go watch Black Hawk Down now lol!

Oh and those are some nice looking blades

[FabioCrow07770]

@HELLZZARMY i seen his video on this knife. the knife looks cool as all hell but he makes it seem like a cheap walmat knife when he swings it with two hands like a girl...
