I did a search to try to find info, but can't find anything conclusive. I have seen a FNMOASH go up for sale with the description "1 of 10" and I have seen the NMOASH up for sale with that same description.

So, my question is, are there 10 NMOASH's and 10 FNMOASH's, or are there somewhere between 10 and 15 altogether, some FN's and some N's ???

I get the number 15 from this thread, but have seen other figures pop up since:

Anyone know? Just curious...
 
I think there were 10 Nuclear MOASH's, and of those 10, there was the option to go Flying, so I believe there are only 10 combined.

I could, of course, be wrong!

From my conversations 10 "FN" MOASHs are in circulation, and like the thread said "less than 15" NMOASH......except for the one I saw that had the Tiger handle, but no Flying serrations.....that one threw me off? Here it is http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=430790

unless they all had the tiger strpe and not the black handle from the picture of http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/sh...=Nuclear+Moash

I have one with the tiger handle and no flying serrations too. The ganzaa pic with the black paper slabs never happened apparently. It was an example pic but when they were actually made, the shop went with the tigers (according to what I've been told by a certain janitor). There is obviously one with black paper in existence since there's a pic of it, but I think the ones from the ganzaa all came out with tiger...

My suspicion is in line with p-cudd: that there were less than 15 in total made, some flying, some not....
 
None of them flew in my door... :(

Congrats to the few that got them. They're gorgeous!
 
It doesn't appear that all of them are tiger slabbed. I remembered seeing this one a while back.

Holy smokes Progunner - thanks for the pic! I had never seen that one. Ok so now we have confirmed the existence of at least one black handled FNMOASH...I knew there had to be one if there was a pic...so now the question is...how many more are there? and is that one with black handles the same one as in the ganzaaa pic, but with added serrations? or is there at least one each of the black handled FN AND black handled N ??

hmmmmmmm

edit to add: i just counted the top serrations on the pic that Progunner posted. there are 10. on the ganzaa pic there are 13, so there are at least 2 black handles out there....
 
Is it black or green? Look at the black one in Jerry's post and then look at the one I found. Does the pic of the one I found look to have a green tint in it or is it just my eyes? Perhaps we are looking at some of the new green linen! I mean, black paper is really black, no mistaking it for anything else except maybe black G10, but again, that is also very black. I don't know guys.
 
Also, regarding the number of serrations on the top edge, look how far back the plunge line is on Jerry's original knife compared to what has surfaced from the shop. I think that is why you are seeing them with fewer teeth than expected.

Now this is not all of the Flying MOASH pics out there, but it seems to me that there have been more pics of them than the standard Nuclear MOASH.
 
Well, from what a janitor told me, there were 10 MOASH's. The first 10 respondants to the 'GANZA had the option of of the Flying Nuclear MOASH. Now, whether this meant 10 MOASH's and 10 FNMOASH's or 10 total with the first 10 respondants getting the option of Flying, I don't know.

It is indeed safe to say there are 20 or less!

BTW there is at least one more pic of a FNMOASH.....check out the avatar..
 
Well, I did some "research" and so far I've come up with 10 that are known to be out there somewhere and two more that may be out there. They are:

1.G-Face - Flying Nuclear
2.P-Cudd - Flying Nuclear
3.Ducci - Flying Nuclear
4.Pork Chopper - Flying Nuclear with black (green?) slabs ( I think Pork Chopper is an alias of some hog who wants to be a stealth FNMOASH owner - only one total post to show the pic and never heard from again)
5.Cstorr - Nuclear
6.Rat-30 - Flying Nuclear
7. Aaron Kelley - Flying Nuclear (this is the one that was on ebay, sold by sethmurdoc. Aaron Kelley is the winning bidders ebay handle)
8. Border Shift - Flying (soon to be traded probably)
9. Briggz - Flying
10. Pieterzakp, then sold to HotRod Kelley (is this the same guy as #7? If so, cool set!) - Nuclear

That makes 10 total that I know of, and of those 10 only TWO of the Nuclear non-flyers. There may be two more, and who knows if they're even out there. They are the original Busse photo of the Nuclear with black paper, and then this one, also a Busse file photo:

Ok now that I did all that hard useless work, I'll go try to find something else to do that will waste my time equally as well...:D

In talking to Jerry, I believe there are (10) Flying Nuclear MOASHs and (10 -15) of the Nuclear MOASHs.
