Just when. I thought I was gonna take a break from blade shopping, ehhhh, wrong! Lol. Bought a NMSFNO from a fellow member on here. Super stoked to get it. Gave me a great deal. So, what do you NMSFNO owners like about ur blade? What do u dislike?
 
Well -- I can tell you IMO it's phenomenal blade. It out chops knives that are 2 inches longer and just as heavy if not more. It is truly a jack of all trades type of knife. It's thickness and blade profile are well suited for it's intended application. The Nuclear Melt treat is awesome aesthetically and functionally it's great in terms of avoiding stress fractures. I made a short table too review of mine. Definitely one of my favorite knives in my entire collection. CongratZ -- I'm sure you'll fall in love with it. The only downside is the weight, but I don't really consider that a downside.

im not crazy about zombie green but i was really impressed with the one in the video. i guess it depends on the blade.
 
It's kind of a frustrating blade to own, because I don't feel like I need any larger or smaller Busse's. I mine as well get a small ax if I want to go bigger and it to be worth it. It's just a great all around blade, and all I need in my backpack along with a folder in my pocket when I am out hiking or camping. I even ended up selling my nmfsh because I know (nmsfno) will chop just as good for the smaller package..................... and I needed a new bed and mattress:rolleyes:. This knife feels like a knife not dedicated chopper like the nmfsh.

and a couple solo's...... I have not got a chance to really use this one, but I had a cg nmsfno that got used. I am sticking with satin for now on on my infi blades, even though I won't be buying anymore because I own the nmsfno ;)

My NMSFNO was a great user I bought from =MAX=. When I first got it it was coated black. It had been well loved.


I stripped her. When I stripped her she wasn't pretty. But I loved on her every chance I got. I took her to the beach and to woods. She went everywhere with me.


I sent her to the spa so she would feel better about herself. Little did I know Garth would make her too pretty and send her back to me a broken knife. He filled her head with all this stuff about "How pretty she is" and "I should buy another knife to do all the work and let her watch."


The problem is, now she thinks she's too good for the woods. She just sits around talking about how pretty and tough she is.

Moral of the story:
The ugly ones are more fun cause they don't mind when you get a little rough with them.

Thanks guys! I love it and everyone who's fondled it has been surprisingly drawn to it. The fact that it easily out chops a Becker BK9 or Ontario RTAK II -- makes it beautiful and brutally effective.

LOL that's why you gotta go with the stripper satin ;). Here's my stripper I polished up. She's not afraid to get down and dirty. Awesome knife btw... I always go back to this knife cause it's such a nice 'do it all' blade.

When Busse first introduced the NMSFNO I was disappointed because it wasn't a re-release of the SFNO. I've always loved the lines of the SFNO and still do. But as a working, do it all blade, the NMSFNO is simply awesome. Not heavy but not light. Long enough do some damage and short enough to do some work. Incredible blade. Still think the SFNO is the nicest looking Busse but the NMSFNO is the knife that gets it done. Congrats!

Very nice, can I ask what the grips are?
 
Thanks! Tan canvas :eek: yeah, I know what you're thinking "they don't look very tan." That's because I dyed them black with leather dye. I really wanted tigerhide but that will probably never happen plus I probably wouldn't want to use it. This one is a keeper for me so I figured why not make it the way I want it :).
