For your consideration, I have a beautiful Custom Shop Nano Fusion Badger Attack with Orange and Grey G-Rexed handle with orange resin filled grey wood burl. It's got a thicker grip than my other NFBAs, so it's very filling in the hand; in fact, it's one of the best feeling NF handles I've held with no hot spots on my hand. The blade is as it came from factory; edge has never cut anything, never been sharpened. 5 beautiful inches of hand applied satin finish INFI right there.

Update: Sheath has been traded.

Most interested in TRADES at the moment, but will sell outright as well.
Would like to trade for something like a NMFSH, ASHBM, NMFBM, (or any other BM variants), Mini Mean Street, Active Duty or something similar, preferably something longer than 8" and/or under 5" (I'm satisfied in the 5"-8" range right now), INFI or SR-101 or ELMAX. Add or subtract cash in either direction as appropriate for trade.

Again, wishing to trade, but will set selling price at **ALL SOLD**. Please don't hesitate to PM me offers or ask any questions.

Without further ado, here are pics.

Can I get a shot of the spine please? I’d like to see just how thick the handle is.

Here ya go!
CS NFBA spine shot

By caliper at the middle pin in the handle, this NFBA measures 0.958", compared to my other CS NFBA at 0.860"
By visuals alone, they don't look that different, but in hand, it makes a huge difference to me.

** EDITED TO ADD: Notice the lack of deep cuts in the handle scales (between the pins/tubes) to make a palm swell like on the regular micarta or G-10 nano-fusion scales. The top and bottom edges are also much more radiused (larger radius) compared to the regular scales. These differences makes these CS handles MUCH more comfortable in hand, IMHO. Fills the hand better, no Hotspots.

Here is a comparison between the two CS NFBAs

OK, Price dropped to $680 to try to move this. Lots of likes, no biters?

Again, I'd love to work out a trade. High on the list, larger INFI blades like BM variants, NMFSH, dare I even say MOAB, etc. Otherwise, smaller blades like Active Duty series, Mean Street and variants, Warden series, etc. any INFI, SR-101, ELMAX blades - make me some offers!

Here is another spine shot of the CS NFBA handle compared to my "standard micarta" Nano Fusion handle from a Forsaken Steel Heart.



The measurements from the low/thinner spots (between the pins) are 0.85" (closer to heel) and 0.83" (closer to blade)
Compared to the FSH, its measurements are 0.630" and 0.638" respectively.
I think that's what makes it more comfortable to my hands, the more subtle palm swell rather than the dramatic circumferential changes for the palm swell.
