I just got my custom NMFBM. 1lb, 15.25oz.

What makes it custom? It's got hand-shaped scales and is double cut, but the rest is in the blade.

Slight recurve, an unsharpened swedge on a big clipped point, and the Team Gemini-style choil.

I'm pretty happy with it. I need to take it out and feed it some wood.

Dwayne from Armoralleather also gave it a nice drum-rolled leather sheath . Smells good, like a new leather jacket. Feels soft and pliable but still tough. It's light for its size.

Just a small annoyance of mine, but it's always bugged me that logos are on the left side of knives. It makes that feel like the "front" to me, but when I carry them right-handed, the "back" of the knife ends up facing outward. What can I say: You can tell the size of a man by the size of things that bother him. Well that's not anything good... okay. Hope you like looking at this.
 
Wow that things got more steel in it than a prius. Nice one. Always like the Bowie shaped knives.
 
She's a beauty. Love the shape and finish. Nothing like hand shaped mic arts on a user.

The NMFBM is one very unique blade...... THE Busse classic:thumbup::thumbup:..... Well, alright. The ASH-1 is another..... And so are the Natural Outlaws......
 
I was just thinking the other day, what a beautiful bowie the NMFBM would make...

That really hit the nail on the head...congrats...it's awesome!
 
What's the thickness ... and is blade length the std 11.25"?

Looks like an epic user. :thumbup:
 
Wow!

If you would have asked me if I would have liked this without seeing it I would have said no....now I want one!

Can't check for sure since I don't have such precise calipers, but I requested 0.27" thick. The length is the standard, 11.25". The balance point is about an inch in front of the end of the choil.
It feels dangerous and powerful to hold :)
 
Nice Score...I'm a Bowie freak and I'm diggin' that clip point and hand shaped miarta....:thumbup: :thumbup:
 
That moment when you had convinced yourself you don't need or like a knife that big..then you see an exception..guess I better start saving :(
