I wouldn't be surprised if they tweaked the dimensions a bit - the saber grind on the DDF is seems lower than the one on the original DFCG, for example. |  |  |

I can understand that.  But would it be possible for two full flat ground knives with exactly the same blade width, blade length, blade thickness and blade shape to be different dimensionally?  That doesn't make sense to me. I'm saying that there's no reason to automatically believe they have the same blade thickness.  At least one person has reported that his seemed thinner, although that's just anecdotal at this point. I don't think it's all that likely that they actually ARE thinner, but it would sure be cool if they were.  It's not all that difficult to stick a different thickness of stock into a CNC machine. |  |  |

The last ganza , I had one DDF almost identical to my grey, and the other mic'd in at .277 with a different grind, and noticablely heavier in the hand

I'm hoping the CGM9 will have micarta just to keep the price down some. I'm a g10 fan but I kinda feel like micarta wouldn't have slipped out of my hand he way the g10 did. Either way I really liking the M9 for the way it feels like a smaller and faster knife than it's size.

Someday I gotta go to East or West..How do you find out where the Busse's setup at gunshows etc?  I remember seeing them at Ohio Gun Coll Assoc. meetings 10+ yrs. ago. Look for the table cloth. Usually Yellow. It's like a Where's Waldo hunt. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

I remember thinking, who would ever spend 200-300 on a knife?
