NMFBM... the ultimate knife !

Well, I can't wait to see some pics of it when you get it. They are truly a sight to behold.:cool:

I will take plenty of photos. :thumbup:

Also comparison photos of the LE and CG together. :)
 
Exactly, I didn't get it to use, it's my Grail blade. :)

Well, it's my grail too. But, I bought it to use for that reason. You could always have it shipped for a weekend at the Busse Spa... Different strokes I guess. After chopping with a CG I knew I needed the LE. Tell you what. I'll take pictures of what she's able to do for me. Possibly even some video, and you can live vicariously via mine. And I can enjoy pictures of your pristine beauty when I look down at my scarred mistress. :D

I hear you man. :D

I really don't think there would be enough difference in performance between the CG and LE to use it. I know the LE should out do it, but not by much. :)

Post a video for sure. :thumbup:

I am going to make one also, but not a user video. :)
 
I couldn't bare owning a roughly 1000 dollar knife and not using it. I'd hammer into a tree and use it as a tree stand climber.

When I have both the LE and CG it makes it easy. :D

Every time I think about using it I can grab the CG and beat the crap out of it. :thumbup:

Trust me when I say this, the zero grind on the NMFBMLE is far superior to the NMFBM CG.

I'm not gonna try and convince ya though! I'd love an NMFBMLE even just to look at! Congrats man!

Thanks Mike. :D

I got some new testing materal today so I will be making some more videos. ;)

Got some 2x4's and a 4x4, they should be fun. :D

I also still have some of the LC timber left too. :)

You better believe that!

A pic is worth a 1000 words, right?

Well stated. I intend to test out that zero grind. Too many of them sit in safes already. That kind of abuse cannot go uncontested. I will see to it personally.
 
Personally I think you all are crazy for using the LE's. :eek:
 
IMO, as long as you have ones that you beat the crap out of, there's nothing wrong with having safe queens too.:thumbup:

I would agree, only in a world where I could afford two. S.O.P. though dictates that I beat the one I have. :D

Now there's a man after my own heart! I just don't feel I'm getting my money's worth otherwise. I don't mind some scratches... a little surface rust for a few days... I wouldn't buy a knife that could take it if... well... I wasn't going to make it take it.

Hahaha. There is something to be said about a pretty knife. If I had my way though, every knife would be a satin LE user.

The only safe queen I have is my Force One. There is almost zero practical reason for me to use a shard of INFI sent right from the god's themselves.

Besides, if you sheath your safequeen in kydex, even once.. it's no longer a safe queen.
 
To me a satinised CG with a zero edge is like having an LE but differs in that you still have $500 in your pocket .... and that was from the factory ... the exchange is more still ....

I agree 100%, it's just not quite as pretty.. but who cares.

It's not the same, I just got my LE in hand today and it ain't the same... :eek:

It's not the same.....

It's just not....
 
I know .... it is a little thicker and a lot more expensive ....

I dont mind paying for satin if you have to .... the BWM LE and the KZ and others like the sabre ground SFNO LE and the sar 8 .... no choice if you wanted the knife .... but the NMFBM's are too close to each other on the CG/LE distinctions IMO to warrant the big difference for me .... and of those Satin ones I have .... the 1-300 SFNO LE was actually cheaper than the painted versions on the exchange .... so was the Mil Overun FBM LE style satin blade I got at KC .... saved $300 on the factory LE cost on that one .... and ironically it is a much rarer knife ....

Satin LE's though are normally a huge mark up .... my NMSFNO is another example .... did it myself and saved $400 on the LE cost ....

I handled the 1-13 snakeskin NMFBM's at KC in 08 and they were just $600 at the show .... I nearly got one but it felt very similar to what I already had .... and too pretty to use ....

If you're going to use them I say save the $$$'s and get a CG if you can .....
