I know some one will love this one. We have a mint A2 SHBA that measures .275" The spine is still blued on this thing, you don't find that all the time. I have run across these that have all the blue worn off of them and the blade is still mint, excessive handling I suppose. It comes with a kydex sheath, I think it is factory, but can't be certain. It looks like the ones I have seen from back in the day. I am asking $625dropped to $590$575 SOLD PENDING FUNDS for it shipped CONUS. I prefer Postal Money Orders, but if you would rather paypal just add 4%. I ship immediately with paypal. Enough chatter, here's the pic. As you can see it is smooth coated with smooth bolts.

Does a 1/300 SHBM count?
All kidding aside, those SHBA's feel awsome in the hand. Your's is going to make someone extremely happy.
 
I would consider a partial trade plus cash for the right Busse or if it is a really good one off or variant, a straight trade. Busse only though folks, not much else floats my boat these days.
 
Got any sub $400 users??? That one's a beaut, I just don't want to put marks on a pristine piece of history.

I'm virtually certain that is a factory sheath; the style is identical to a couple of Mean Street sheaths I have. Nice looking knife! :cool:

Good luck to ya PG... she's a flippin beauty alright.

Progunner sold me a DCBAe a while back and the knife was a good as he stated, IMHO it was better. Great guy to do business with. Whoever gets this baby will be happy, dats fer sho! :thumbup:
 
JWB, I have never sold a user. I guess I figure once I use it, why sell it.

GK thanks for the info

Solstice, thanks for the kind words.
 
Back up there, what's the matter guys, a little too steep? Make me a serious offer, you never know. ;)
 
Free weekend bump for an awsome knife:eek: from a great guy.:thumbup:
Good luck Gunner.
 
Back up with another substantial price drop. You guys better snatch this one up before it goes back in the safe. It probably will not get any cheaper than what I have it listed at. This is a high quality blade my friends.
 
BTT- for PG! :D

I got one of these and let me tell you guys it is one of my favorite Busses. It is one flippin huge chuck of Busse Steel. The shear weight of her is worth every penny! The smooth micarta is soooo cool. I still wish Jerry would come out with this style again. Not only is it smooth but it's thicker than the standard micarta on the new Busses. Don't let this one get away from ya guys, you'll have Regrets if you do!

I really have to agree..

I have one of these and I have to admit it is defenitly one of my favorites( but then again,,all of mine are my favorites :D ),,perfect fit and feel to my hands and I have to admit that I am not to fond on thick blades but this is one thick blade that I absolutly love:eek:
 
Guys, to me this is the best of all worlds knife that Jerry ever put out. Everything is perfect as far as grip, balance and feeling 'right' in the hand.

Mine has been my EDC for 90% of the time for most of the last 2+ years and 100% of the time since Wilma hit in Oct. I'm wearing it at the moment. I cherish it over ANY other Busse blade. Simply because I can keep it with me at all times.

Thanks for the kind words guys, it really is a very nice piece. I have had a few trade offers, but cash is always king. If someone wants it, they had better grab it as I am pondering these trades.
 
Yeah, if youv'e been eyeing the SHBA's and thinking about getting one then go for it. I have one and love it. You won't be sorry.
