Question CGFBM vs FBM

Glad we could help. :) Good luck with your search on the exchange and from experience I will say, an expensive knife you did not overpay for is very enjoyable, but if you feel you overpaid it may leave a bad taste in your mouth, so please take your time to find the right deal.

Also, if you get a CGFBM, you may find you prefer magnum handles, but with the thicker blades you can go either way, standard or magnum. The .27 saber grinds are a very nice balance between a CG and the .32 heavyweights.
 
I decided to get this one,FBM .27" Black Saber Ground, Magnum Red Tequila Sunrise G10 Handle,price was very fair in my opinion.I have sold my GCFBM on the sale forum over a month ago for what I will paying for this one.

The easy way I always kept it straight is like this, (Generalization here) and keep in mind whether your talking CG, Satin's, SE's or LE's
CGFBM---CORRUGATED GROOVES with a thickness around .250
FFBM---SABRE GRIND with a thickness around .270 or .310
FFFBM---FULL FLAT GRIND with a thickness around .270-.300 or .320
Now to really muk this up I have a Custom FFBM that has a thickness of .256. So when your talking FBMs as a blanket keep it simple for youself in that is it Corrugated,Sabre or Flat ground, and then ask about a thickness. Between Customs, Shows and original production runs things will very.
I have seen a multitude of variations, so when your making your choice just start with which design & thickness you would prefer to pursue, piece of cake!!!
