Great comparison—thanks!

Now you’re just showing off.

You say that like it's a bad thing.

I know that you have amazing blades that put my own meager collection to shame. And I am very grateful that we have this wonderful community where we can share these treasures among like-minded folks who can appreciate nice things.

Poignantly put my porcine brother. Now about that Banned custom...you’re way too far ahead of me. Meager collection my patoot!

Says the man who spelled NMFBM with NMFBM.

Amazingly enough I no longer own a NMFBM!

I just researched the FSH lineage and have a BG coming to me, but I went for the thick one. I have lots of 3/16" stock blades but no 5/16" and wanted something extra thick in my collection anyway. Can't wait to see how the fatty chops and batons.

dogboye or @clampdaddy might be able to help you on the thin one. They had positive comments about it in the User Grails thread.

Well, I don't know if I missed it, but I had no idea I was mentioned in this thread. I do indeed have the 3/16" BG FSH, and I love it. I know I saw later in the thread that someone was of the opinion that the NFSH was faster in hand. Perhaps that is so, but I don't feel it (I have a NFSH as well... and had to round out my BG FSH by getting the THICK one. Of the three, I probably like the NFSH the best, but I think a lot of that is it is Comp Finish INFI, and has a clip point (I'm a sucker for a clip point). However, IMO, the 3/16" BG FSH is a better slicer, and feels lighter to me.

Sorry I'm so late to this thread....

Thanks a million—that’s exactly the kind of first-hand, straightforward comparison I was hoping for.
