Well, one real problem I had is that the rivets that hold the handle slabs on need to be made of a better metal. .. I was throwing it a few times and noticed one entire slab shifted, pretty badly. I pounded it back in place. Busse should have used at least brass rivets like on some of their older model blades. Once more people start throwing these things I know this issue will come up a lot.. I'll just post a thread on it once something breaks. I use it a lot , so it would be a disservice to send it back and be without a blade for a few months. It's my only chopper of this caliber..
Other than that the NMFBM is the best chopper I have ever had the pleasure of abusing and using.. :thumbup:
