Ok, lets try this again...
I need to part with my beloved 2008 FBM SE. This is one of the most beautiful Battle Mistresses I have ever owned, but I want to purchase my first 1911 (and they ain't cheap)! I am offering this blade at the same price it was sold to me by a generous fellow BF member. The FBM is pristine; not a damn scratch anywhere. She is 10'' long, .27'' thick, satin finished INFI with black & black/tan g-10 magnum handles. The balance is VERY similar to my SHBM due to the similar blade geometries. This might even be a variant as it doesn't have the sharpened swedge. It has been squared off much like the FBM LE. Either way, the balance is spectacular, the grinds are beautiful, and the knife is dead mint. It has been sitting in an ACE Case since the day I got her, and I will include the case in the sale. I would be happy to consider partial trades for old school Swamp Rat knives, a Street Scrapper 4, or the right 1911 pistol. Thanks for having a look gents, and please PM me with any questions; respect the forum rules.
$750.00 shipped USPS priority with DC and insurance on my dime.
Oh, and sorry for the crappy pictures as they DO NOT do the knife justice in the least. The 5th picture is just to prove that the swedge isn't sharpened, but ground flat. If someone is interested in the 2008 FSH as well, I can point you in the right direction as the generous hog who sold me the FBM has the FSH as well. Thanks gents.
I WOULD BE HAPPY TO TRADE THIS BEAUTY FOR THE RIGHT 1911!
I am also adding in here a brand new Busse Basic 11. The knife has been professionally vexed by NorcalBlacktail; scary sharp is an understatement. The Basic 11 will also come with a Lost Mountain Iron Works survival sheath. This was going to be a user for trail clearing, but my Rat Mastiff cannot be replaced.
$400.00 shipped USPS priority with DC and insurance on my dime.
