Be sure to post some pics when she arrives
While I was outside pumping up a flat tire on my jeep, the postal lady came driving up with something to brighten my day. It's my new NMSFNO in sage w/blk micarta!
This knife has some heft to it, about 20 oz on my scale. That makes it a bit heavier than these comparably sized choppers.
That extra weight does not seem bad at all with the nice balance of the large heavy handle. The knife balances at the rear of the choil. I couldn't help doing a little chopping and splitting with the Busse, just to get the feel of it.
Even with that weight, the knife is fast enough in the hand to slash through palmettos with ease. I really like this Busse. It was worth waitng for. And I think the sage looks good, too. Thanks, Amy!

I'm glad to see you got yours Horn Dog! :thumbup: I also like seeing that you're already putting it to use. Mine will probably be a safe queen since I live in suburbia and really don't have anything that I can chop (legally ). They are very nicely made knives though.

HAHA, Oh believe me, with my two Belgian Malinois my neighbors are already scared enough...I doubt they'd even notice I was holding a knife.

I didn't do a comparison with those, just a little chopping and batoning. It's a safe guess that the FBM and FFBM will out chop the NMSFNO. But I am pretty sure the NMSFNO will out chop my Sarsquatch. It might even out chop the Ratweiler which was my best midsized chopper in a comparison I did on Scrap Yard forum.
Lucky I saw this thread! Didn't even know about the company store until now. So I just ordered the last NMSFNO in Tanker Gray with Black Micarta handle.
HD, the NMSFNO does pretty well for having a V edge grind as opposed to Convex:thumbup: Once it finally wears itself down I'm going to convex mine
Then there's that rounded spine to be admired for it's beauty, and comfort in a forward grip.
