I acquired my first Mistress just a couple of months ago. She's a beautiful Mistress, modded by norcalblacktail and D-guarded (is that even a word?) by me. I had great plans to bushwhack and generally beat my way through the Great Smoky Mountains with her, but she's just too pretty.

Then I made the mistake of calling the custom shop. I talked to Garth, who answered every question I could ask and provided logical (and patient) answers to all of them, even the dumb ones. I ended up ordering a NMFBM, sage blade with tan micarta scales. Today it arrived. I expected it to be a little bit larger than the Bushwhacker, but this thing is freaking awesome. The thickness and the length of this knife are just unbelievable. I feel like I could cut down a redwood with this thing. Luckily we don't have those in Tennessee, I don't think anyone would appreciate me hacking at an ancient redwood with a knife.

mind kicks in and they become safe queens :D
 
Just awesome! Can't wait for the day I acquire a large Busse. My MUK will be the first.
 
Nice pair but you are going to have to start beating one of them...
 
Get the new one D-guarded. hahahah-see you just created a new word. Gratz on the blades man and thx for the pics!
 
The NMFBM is the bomb! Next to the FBM LE, my favorite Mistress of them all!
 
Thanks everyone. I'm waiting on Chuddy Bear sheaths for both (about 4 weeks into it so far) and will get at least one of them out for some playtime in the mountains. Pics to come...
 
Pulling a "Charlie Sheen" on us eh!?! Two Mistresses; you animal!:D:thumbup::thumbup:
 
i did the same first the BWM and then months later I purchased the NMFBM. I use the NMFBM for the larger logs in my fireplace and the BWM for the smaller branches. These are my last and only two large blade knives in my collection.
