Can you really say 'Never?'

Thanks man. It almost looks muddy. :cool:

Yea, It kinda does but keep in mind the muddy was a crinkle.

Crinkle coats have a veiny/shiny looking texture throughout the entire finish.

The powder coat has more of a flat/matte finish..
Just something to keep in mind when in doubt. :)
 
The one knife I own right now that I plan to keep until my demise is my custom titanium folder by Ray Rogers.
Ray ground the steel and titanium to shape, installed his own custom 1/2" pivot for it, plus other hardware, did his own heat treat on the blade, and applied the finish.
Waited 15 months to get it and it exceeded my expectations by a long shot. :thumbup:
My friends rave about it more than any knife I have ever owned. :cool:
I carry it every day, even though it's a beast of a folder.
Haven't owned enough Busses yet to say I will never sell one.
I have a custom one in mind that I will never sell, if I can get the custom shop to build it ! :)

The only two for sure would be the Case Trapper my father carried the last 5 years of his life... and one my brother made for me about 25 years ago.

These two Busse's would be hard for me to let go...
Need to get a better pic of these.

Many others I love, but I would need food before I sold any of above.
But as always...never say never
 
Well now,

I am some what Surprised by the emails that this thread has generated for me, LOL.
 
I am not currently looking for a Tractor, but depending on my next property, I might have a use for a small Crawler with a clamshell bucket or a smaller end loader with both a 3 point hitch and maybe a detachable backhoe.

But at this time, I got no use for a tractor(Well, they are fun to play in the dirt with)
 
I have some antique knives like my WW2 FS dagger I would not part with but the only 2 users I would not give up neither are Busse but 1 is INFI. My SS4 and DFLE are just to perfect. Especially now that I have an awesome custom sheath for my DFLE.
I picked up a user SH-E and it is a beautiful blade but not nearly as nice as the DFLE.

The DF is also longer by 2 inches and substantially lighter. It also has the looks of the old Straight Handle BM's while it is still not so expensive you don't want to use it.


My SS4 was my first good knife and I have used her hard. She has been stripped and had the edge thinned drastically yet still has never chipped.
It is just a bit to big to be a companion for the DFLE.

I am falling for my new HairyCarry. It has just been reprofiled down to 20 degrees and the satin and black G10 looks fantastic. Once I get a sheath that can go piggyback on my DFLE I may have to keep it.
 
If I drink enough, I will certainly forget about any list, I do however notice that if I drink enough the rest of the world tends to list from one side or the other.

I also notice a tendency to stop list ening and to start singing.

Then when I wake up after, I want to use some List erine.
 
Never say never.

The last ones to go would be my Meaners in satin black paper and satin snakeskin but if it came down to it I would sell them all.

No regrets.

Things cycle through my life, golf, fishing, guns, knives, bikes, stereo equipment.

Some day one of those other things will be more important than knives and I’ll sell pretty much anything.

But the very last to go will be these that were sold to me by HOG friends... in no particular order.

One very nice SHBA, a BBSHSH, some significant SHBMs, some nice off duties, a MTAD, and a few old school Mean Streets.


And if they do ever go I hope those guys get them back :cool: :thumbup:.
