Basic 11 On "Dual Survival"

Must...resist urge...to...peek at episode...before getting to tv with the gf. She will kill me!
 
I pointed out the B11 to my wife, and she just smiled. I had a picture taken of Dave Canterbury and I at Blade. ;)

Thanks for sharing that link, PK :thumbup::thumbup:

Very cool that Mr. Canterbury is rocking the B-11. Mine goes on its maiden voyage camping tomorrow.
 
Very, very cool!

Looks like the "Busse" on the blade had been blacked out - see 1:36 in the clip LVC posted.
 
Cool show i watch it all the time but have'nt seen that one yet. I wonder if Dave picked that B-11 up at blade. Thanks for the link LVC. :thumbup:

You know what is sad! I watched the damn show and did not pay attention to the knife during that part at all! Yes is shows the Busse B11 very clear!
 
I saw it too! The logo and the grooves in the basic handle were a dead giveaway! I stayed up and watched the episode a second time when it ran a few hours later just to see it again, very cool to see Dave with a B11.
 
Dave seems like the type that would tote a Busse into the woods the more I watch that show the more I enjoy it.
 
Hey I'm in NY too InquisitorLord. If you're anywhere near the capital region send me a message and we can camp. I go every weekend up to the Adirondacks to do some fishing and practice my bush craft.

I am currently in NYC but my wifes Aunt has a farm in Potters Hollow. Haven't had a chance to get up there yet this year, but dying to...
 
Uh, tortoise orifice ..... ack!
If the guys that did Spinal Tap and Best in Show were to spoof these guys, I'm not sure they could make it any funnier. :)

Great pic Tom!!! :thumbup:
I tried to get Scott to take a photo with Dave, but no luck,,

How's that "Ashwacker" treating you? :D:D
 
I'm working on a sheath for it now, well, after I finish mowing the grass!:D I think I'll make a dangler-type sheath for it, and possibly another with an attachment for a Scrapivore.
 
Dave is a respectful and humble guy for his success. Both he and his son served this country.

Why a B11 and not A NMSFNO or Steel Heart?
 
He reminds me Ron Hood's...& still in knive business....LOL


The Custom Knife Manufacturing Business is a small Industry. Word of "Mouth" is an important aspect associated with it. Today I received an e-mail from a man who is well known for his Knives and has been making custom Knives since the early 1980's. He told me that he always questioned Ron Hood's War Stories. He said the stories just didn't sound right. He also was NOT surprised to find Robert Taylor's name here. He had always questioned Rob Taylor's stories, but remained silent out of respect and for fear of offending a Real War Veteran. This man said Ron Wood and Robert Taylor were now "OUT" of business with him. He won't be doing any business with Wood or Taylor,, but he would be spreading the word so that others are not deceived by these two lairs, fakes and frauds.
