any bravo 1 users out there

copperhead very deadly around these parts rite up there with the timmber rattlers. i use cacheing as a reason to go back to the deep woods where not many go i have found old home steads hunting lodges and quarrys that i didnt even know where there its amazeing the stuff thats in your every day life that you never see. plus its great training last weekend me and redhawk did 6 miles into the backwoods to a old hunting lodge it burned down a long time ago but the sandstone walls and where the logs went into the walls are still there.
 
Glad you are giving the Bravo a good home Eastr77. That knife is just too good looking for me to beat up. They are awesome cutters.

thanks again for the great knife cant wait for it twin to come they will be great cacheing knives. they should get losts of use on the river to.
 
Here is the old lodge. It is a very cool place.

that is one of the most important feeling IMO. the confedince in your gear is not replaceable. the feeling that your grear will survive anthing you do. thats why i love all my busse knives when i take them i never worrie about failur to come out in one peace. i love the bravo for its size and heft, you all are inspireing quite a bite of confedence in my for this knife. it will be a good company for my ash1 LE. i only need one but my sig. line says my opinion a that.
 
Eastr77, nice snag on that tiger B1, I have a green canvas one that I used stock checkering tools to add some checkering on the palm swells just to increase traction, it isn't perfectly executed, but it works. I also have a stag handled one, but it is in the safe. Those two are about the only non Busse family blades I own. I can say the B1 is a cutting fool. I used it to tear down a ton of cardboard out in the shed, not very outdoorsy I now, but it gives me a good idea how long it will stay harp. I have to admit I think my Busse Active Duty stays sharper longer, but a quick stropping and the B1 is ready to roll in short order. It is a winner in my book. I am going to have to get my user out and work with it some soon.

thanks porkgunner good to hear an OP from another infidel my ash's aways cover my a$$ but i like to mix it up a bit, and the bravo seems to be what im looking for, and all this pos. feed back is awsome to see. if the mail man dosn't comith soon i may fall dead.
 
Wow with out the ramp it looks like a hole other knife :eek:


I like the B1 so much, I just got a second as well in CPM154 w/o thumb-ramp (just arrived yesterday actually, haven't taken it outside yet). The thumb-ramp doesn't bother me as much as I initially felt it would, but it's nice to have a thump-ramp-less version.
