BUSSE (HOGS) followers are sensitive

There are plenty of threads in TGB&U that were started without a valid argument. They are useful to anyone considering doing business with the people who started them.

We don't need a dedicated Meltdown Forum, do we? Many's the train wreck has taken place right here in The Good, The Bad, The Ugly.

I think we're all getting our point across, from suttond and onward and upward. Of course, any Bladeforums member is free to start a thread in Whine & Cheese if they'd like, on any topic they please.

"So let it be written, so let it be done!"

No worries, thanks for hearing me out. :):thumbup:
 
I'm not a Busse enthusiast, never owned one of their knives, and even I know you don't tug on that cape without a damn good reason unless you're a glutton for punishment. This does not qualify as a damn good reason. After reading the relevant information, I can't even say it qualifies as grounds to be mildly bothered.
 
Jaxx, W&C or the cove is open for your use if you wish.

Lets keep this thread respectful, ok?

Rat and Kiahs, this measn you too.
 
Suttond, I read your complaints in the first thread, and I read what you have posted above, and all that comes to mind is that you should get over it. You are coming off as a crybaby, and it's you that is taking a hit to his reputation, not Busse or thatmguy.
 
i have had the chance to talk with mike a few times on the phone. he is a very nice and polite guy who i cant wait to meet, unlike you suttond who i would never care to meet.

You had "busse fever" and you needed a fix. That's forgivable, although admitedly I don't understand the passion for busse knives.

I drove a friend 350 miles to the Indy 1500 last year. My buddy went exclusively to see busse knives. We had to head directly to the busse table first since he could hardly control himself. The knives on display weren't that impressive, just black-coated basic models. We left the show in less than an hour and bought nothing.

I'm sure my wallet-vibrating friend would have experienced the same level disappointment you are demonstrating, had thatmguy (very nice fellow BTW) not been at the Indy 1500 that day. I would have heard bitching all the way back home!
 
I really don't know what to say to suttond.

Sure, I'm a Knife Knut. I like knives. But people are and always will be more important than knives.

I'd like to hope that, if you knew Mike, those words would never have come out of our mouth and over your fingers. But really, do you need to know Mike to understand how wrong your attitude is?

You need help. Serious help. Help we can't give you. Get away from that keyboard and seek it out.

I wasn't going to post, but I am most distressed by all of this. From the first Busse I purchased, right up through an absolutely incredible Blade experience, and continuing down to today, Busse Combat is a company that has ALWAYS been about people...the people who work there and the people who buy their knives.

Just call and talk to them. Or look at the responses already posted here. Or notice the interplay on the forum...I think Knife Hunter said it best when we all got back from Blade...it was like going to a family reunion. I have NEVER spoken with anyone from Busse or the extended family of knives (SYKW and Swamp Rat) who wasn't friendly and open and helpful. Jerry himself made me feel like I had family I never met, and he didn't have to do that. It's how they are. If it were just about the knives...well, I'd buy what I wanted and move on. What keeps me coming back is the people...and their ability to connect with us and make us all feel part of the company. Having great products is obviously connected to this factor.

Yes, we are a sensitive bunch...but clearly you are not able to understand that. We do care for each other, and in this day and age that is a wonderful thing. My brother and sister Hogs have made me feel welcome, and surely would have done the same for you had you given us the opportunity. I'm sorry you were disappointed, sir.

I was dissapointed that BUSSE didn't show up at the INDY 1500 show (medical reasons). I wrote about my dissapointment on their site and stated that I thought this was unacceptable and they should of had a back up plan. You would of thought that I attacked everyone on their forum. I got a personal reprimand by everyone. Has this happened to anybody else? Usually when you complain about customer service the company tries to do something to make the customer happy, but not BUSSE. They act like they are doing you a favor by charging you $700.00 dollars for a knife. By the way I do like their knifes, but I think I will stick with Striders or Fehrmans, it ain't worth the hassle.

Hmmm... so Busse was supposed to send you what? A knife? A gift certificate? The pony you never received for your birthday as a child?

Suck it up, dude. Busse was not even going to be at the Indy show. Blade is the only show I know of that the Busse crew attends. thatmguy is an independent contractor, not an employee of Busse Combat. Maybe, after he's done paying his hospital bills, he can purchase that pony and send it to you. You know... since he developed a heart murmur, visited the hospital, and put you out as a result.

Well said. Only me, I'm not sorry he got disapointed. People like that deserve to get disapointed.

Kind regards,

Yes I think your right. I didn't mean to offend anyone personally. It wasn't meant as a slam against thatmyguy, but it came out that way. I would never wish anybody ill health. I just wanted BUSSE to know that I thought they could of still covered this event. I should of went about it another way.

You are not apolgizing..your just justifying your own stupidity..

Let me give you a few clues to life...free of charge no gas money or cash needed...from your glorious beacon of light ( and truth)

1. THe world does not revolve around you.
2. Your actions effect other people. If you had not been such a whiney little slang term for female anatomy I am sure Busse or anyone would have been willing to help you but instead you jump on peoples Shyt. Btw in case you have not guessed the knife community is a pretty tight bunch especially the hogs..
3. You reap what you sow. Now your getting a barge of pooh delivered up your cinnamon hole and you are standing there wringing your hands going..." Gee Im sorry I didnt mean to offend.." Sorry pal but B. S.
4. Grow up..grow a penis and get over it...JFC man..are you really that clueless????

I tried to be humble, I tried to apologize, but apparently that tactic doesn't work. I'm not going to get into anymore pissing contest on-line. I actually have better things to do. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I will not be posting anything else on this site.

That's probably the only good idea you have had during this recent bout of childish behavior you've undergone.

Starting this up again for no valid reason, shows that you simply wanted some attention and felt it was OK to insult people that are obviously of a much higher caliber than you to get it.

You met with a little disappointment from life, come down off of the cross, use the wood to build a bridge and GET OVER IT.

THis is not an apology...

I am sorry for uspeting people but I am still right and busse should have had a back up plan...

THat is kind of like saying..I "Your wife is a fat ugly cow and she dresses funny and looks like a retard but thats not your fault you married her"

A true sincere apology would be much more heart felt...

You sir are insincere and your complete lack of character posting starting this thread again speaks VOLUMES about what kind of a person you are I dont need to go into details I am sure the wreckage in your life is more than enough explaination.....and I am calling like I see it.
