Hello, friends.
I just wanted to take a minute to say that I've noticed at quite a few people have posted in the WTB section of bladeforums asking for very specific color variations of specific models of the new line. If you really want any particular style of knife, I would suggest that you go easy on the requests for some of those colors, or put in a statement that reads something like ".... colors prefered, but will consider other offers". Since these models are still fairly new, I don't think most people will want to give them up, so you might have a tough time getting ANY color variation of a particular knife.
I'm only writing this because I've seen many unanswered ads in recent days.
That's all folks, have a nice day. Of course, sometime you just gotta have what you really want, and nothing else will do. Whatever.
Happy Hunting, HOGs and piglets!
 
Good observation and good suggestion.

Fortunately, one of the nice things about being as new to the Busse addiction as I am is that you'll take anything you can get, when you can get it. :D They're all good!

Much Kudos and thank god for the company store and the great folks who run it.

If you can't wait or hate to wait then yeah, Your better off not being picky. I've asked for specific combinations a few times, had to wait two or three months but it paid off. There was once or twice where someone posted looking for the same knife as me. I thought about posting "Back off, I was here first" in their thread! But I didn't. ;)
 
I've learned more about patience these past few months then I think I have in my whole life. Yes, patience is the key when it comes to having the things we most want. Like a DC SFNO w/ Mag blk canvas handles! :(

Someday! :D

Stay Strong & No Regrets!
