criteria for your collection???

I've been around Busse(kin) knives for only a few years, but I find I don't like knives with handles longer than their blades. I prefer knives with very little to no thumb ramp. The way the handle feels is a high prioriety. A strong tip. Coated blades don't bother me anymore.
 
I guess its been really just tan canvas that gets me - I used to have a thing for sage/tan canvas, and still love it, but dont collect em like I used to.

I'm starting to really like black paper and my BJ and Muk will have black paper.

My criteria? Big enough to chop, or small enough to carry. Satin or stripped, generally. Customs have caught my eye lately.

Very nice! That Mudsnake is a beauty, but the tan linen on that sarsquatch is my favorite for feel in the hand if it isn't res-c. :thumbup:

Just wait until you get a chance to use that new B11, it may surprise you at how well it does for its weight. ;)

Thanks! Agreed, the squatch is perfection - it has pretty much replaced my NMSFNO, but, still cant bring myself to sell it.

Yeah I've been completely impressed with the B11 and havent even used it yet :) Cant wait to get upstate to try it out - I cant put it down - that handle is amazing and the forward weight of the blade is soooo nice. Havent owned a Dogfather or SOD in a while, but I dont remember those handles feeling as nice - the B11 handle feels thinner? Anyway, I cant believe I've waited this long to try it out.

I think if Busse did a B6 or rerelease of the B7 I would never need another knife.
 
My collection is all about Tigerhide, satin, numbered LE's. I believe I have the complete up to date set.

I do have a few others that I really like.
