In order to become a real hog, you have to hone the art of justifying/funding purchases to a fine edge. For example:

I've been wavering between ordering a couple of NMSFNO's and finally acquiring that .44 Mag revolver I've been wanting. On Monday, decided to go into my favorite gun shop and do the deed. Was 99% sure I wanted to buy the 6.5" S&W Model 29 Classic, but that 4" Mountain Gun was very appealing, also. I mentally decided to go with the 6.5", and was opening my mouth to say, "I'll take it", when the counter guy, thinking I was wavering between the two, said, "maybe what you really need is a 5". Being more of a semi-auto fan, I didn't even know they made a 5", but the store didn't have one. The guy had unknowingly talked himself out of a sale, because the 5" instantly became my grail .44 mag.
Cut to Wednesday. Walked into another local gun shop, found myself looking directly at a slightly used 5" Model 29Classic! And I saved about $170 over what I was going to spend on Monday.

So what has this got to do with Busse knives? I saved $170! Applying a little Bussenomics, I can now afford to order a CG and an LE NMSFNO.

The key to Bussenomics is not to get too hung up on the numbers. It's the justifying that counts.:D
 
mike, you're weak, sometimes you just have to say "NO" to those kind of temptations.

let me know when you figure it out and send me detailed instructions.

I've got two Mountain Guns, one in .44 and one in .41. They are great. If you find yourself with some extra $, I would snag one of those as well. As an investment, of course!
 
agreed...


when is a GRAND too much for a SJ?


when you dont have a grand to spend:cool:;)
 
My bussenomics goes like this:

Skip the gun purchase altogether and buy more knives. Ive got a IMI .40 Im good to go, and $4,000 worth of knives!!! WTF.
