...I would think the CG would be a good deal easier then the NM. That extra 1 1/2"of blade length on the NM must add a good amount of heft. I really want a Dogfather LE badly (as if you couldn't tell by my recent posts <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />)I just can't find one for a reasonable price on the secondary market. Hopefully I'll get a shot and Dan will throw some into the yard (if not an LE at least a version with a full flat grind)...
I so wish they had made a thin version of that NMFBM to keep the weight down. That's the only thing that kept me from buying one. The FFBM is a heavy beast of a knife at 30 oz or so, and I feared that the NMFBM would be as heavy. If Dan offers some more flat ground DFs, I'm getting another for backup. The DFLE is just about as perfect as a chopper can get. The M9LE is nice, too. I just think that about 22 oz is as heavy as I want a chopper for all-around use.
