I dont need the sawback, but I wanna try a cbt ashbm.
I wonder how much weight the CBT and notches took out of the blade? It will be interesting to compare the feel and balance of this to the regular ASHBM.

I'm refreshing the site and debating handle color... Either red black or green black g10...... Maybe black paper, blade color doesn't matter because I'll strip it immediately
I prefer black paper first for everything at this point, canvas micarta being second pick. You won't regret going with black paper . :thumbup:
Black paper comes black and looks more like g10 right? Doesn't have that grey look to it like the black canvas in the picture from Jerry above? How does black paper hold up?
So are "corrugated bevel technology" blades cnc'd rather than ground?
Thanks for the reply!I'm not a100% sure but I'm gonna guess all Busse blades are cnc'd. Grinding is just a finishing process. The extent of grinding/polishing depends on the finish being offered for that particular blade. The cbt is the least labor related finish, except for the BIG finish.that might be less because its not coated. This is just what I can tell from my days in a machine shop. Like I said, I'm just guessing.
tanker grey/black paper! Thanks for asking. I'll send you my address. Can't believe i scored one for free!![]()
