Got my FFBM today, thanks Dan. :thumbup:

Stripped with Black and Red G10 Mags and it's awesome. Heavier than my CGFBM, noticeably heavier. The edge was convexed and OK sharp, but I will get it Air Bleeding sharp once I take the Edge Pro to it.




Much thicker than the CGFBM is on the right.



Fusion treatment is just a little different.


Blade is a lot fatter.
 
Great score man! The FFBM is my Busse grail knife for sure. I still have not found a better chopper :cool::thumbup:

Enjoy and please post some destruction pics!!
 
Nice. Nothing makes a Saturday like Busse at your door! I had a visit from the FFBM fairie a couple of Saturdays ago, myself. Its off at the tailor's getting some pants.

Its new to me, but I got it in trade from 230 Grains, so its probably chopped through concrete walls! :)

No concrete walls.... well maybe a couple... Nah.

It did burn through a couple nails though that where in some wood.

Congrats man, like mine it's already broken in so I won't feel bad about really beating it up. :D

Yeah I am gonna have fun with this one. :thumbup:
 
You'll love it! Nothing you can't get through with it. One of the best, if not the best, chopper yet!
 
Nice score!

I'd like to get one of those eventually. I ended up picking up a KZ before the FFBM. I'm still on the fence on whether the keep it or trade it for a FFBM. Although, I should try chopping with the KZ first.
 
Well I couldn't wait, had to take the Edge Pro to it, it's Air Bleeding sharp now. It didn't take too long either. :D

Now it's ready for action. :thumbup:

Man that edge looks like a mirror scary:eek: sharp! I'm going to have to get one of those sharpmakers. I'm not the best at sharpning knives. Now comes the CHOP-OFF! Nice,:thumbup: :thumbup: D,

It's is, you can shave in it literally. :thumbup:

I am gonna do the chop off tomorrow, I can tell the BWM doesn't have a prayer just by the feel of the FFBM. ;)
 
Thought of sharpening forum members knives? No worries/no power tools.

Just a thought:)

I have thought about it, if someone needed it done I am sure we could work something out. :D

It took me 2 hours to re profile and take it up to 6,000 grit polishing tape on the Edge Pro.

Sounds like a good deal to me:cool:

It's not too bad unless the edge needs to be re profiled, that takes the most time, the rest is pretty quick. :)

If I did it on a Sharpmaker it would take me 2 days to do the same thing and it wouldn't be near as sharp or perfect. ;)

That 120 grit waterstone moves some metal I can tell you. :D
