Since starting to collect Busse's in 2007 I've tried to keep up with the Combat Grade and now Battle Grade versions of the Mistress. CGFBM, FFBM, NMFBM, BWM, ASHBM, Choiless ASHBM, BS, EBM2 and the four recent Battle Grade offerings.
I've purchased all of them directly from Busse except for the first two. The Combat Grade Battle Mistress was a recent release in '07 and no longer available so I had to take what I could get and got it in Bruiser G-10. The Fat Flat Fusion Battle Mistress was a Busse Company Store offering. I happened to score it in Black G-10 with Black coating so I kept it on all of the others.
In this next pic you can see how the original CBTs were crisper and the crinkle coating was more matte.
After a fiasco with the post office I finally got my Battle Grade Battle Saw. Its Talon Hole is bigger than the INFI version but otherwise they seem identical.
The original FFBM is a behemoth. Has the penetrator tip, sharper machined G-10 and much thicker stock.
Thanks for looking!
