OK, the spine and all the other "Edges" are rounded off. Does this mean that this is a NMBWM, if there is such a thing?
I can think of no better recipient of such generous gifts. I agree with what Hooker said; I'm not surprised by the generosity of our Brothers, just humbled by it all the time.
To answer your question, it has been my experience that (generally) a Busse blade only gets the Nuclear Meltdown title when there is a previous iteration of the blade design that does not have the NM treatment. For instance, the SFNO/NMSFNO, FBM/NMFBM, FSH/NMFSH. The SAR series has rounded features as well, but they didn't get the NM title. I guess my theory could be argued because the BWM is technically a Battle Mistress, but there was no BWM with squared off features before it. Maybe there is no method to Busse's madness
.
Anyways, congratulations on such an AWESOME score!
Now that you are a HOG, will we be seeing some posts over on the BF Busse subforum? I hope so!
P.S. I think I might have something that'd go nicely with the Pumpkin BWM. I'll get in touch with you.
