I could do it with a credit card, Bors, but I'd sure need to get paid fast. You think there will be any FBM LEs there? Those ain't cheap.
Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

I guess I'm not sure on the model. I would prefer a flat/saber grind and not the wavy grind and was thinking that you could only get it in a satin finished blade. but I'm not entirely sure do you have a wavy finished BM and if so how do you like it. It's going to be a user so the finish would come off anyway.

The thicker FFBM is much like the LE, only much less expensive. It doesn't have the grooves. It's a heavier knife than the FBM.

Enjoy every sandwich.

The weight is not an issue. handle color, well give me a break here I'm color blind but I like the lighter single or lighter mottled colored handles (grays browns and sages).

I have been looking for combat grades myself both years. I take that back.... when it came to new knives like SarSquatch they were CG but I don't remember any old styles.

Or is Blade a different story with what they bring?
