Any of you Rat's make that buy today? Was only like $160 with 1-2 minutes left...thought I had some old school love coming my way for cheap...Not! :(;)

Shot up like 60-70 in the last minute..still wasn't a bad price- thing looked pretty mint!

One day I'll have some old school handles...one day..;):D

EXCELLENT score! I had a SHSJ, BOSS Jack, and Desert Jack. I sold em all...except for the Desert Jack :cool:

I can't imagine a more perfect knife in that size.

this is an awesome blade.ive owned 2 boss jacks and sold them because the blade was so thick right above the edge and overall to thick.this knife is superior in just about every way except maybe the steel.
 
fyi, it's OK to post links to COMPLETED auctions:

$237!! :eek: That was a score! Always wanted one of those, but the aftermarket price had gotten too rich for me. Those were selling for over $400 just two years ago.

Now that the bubble has burst on the Bussekin market, there are great buys to be had for those in the acquiring mode. Not so good for us sellers. :( So it goes.
 
wow,,thanks for the info resinguy. i didnt know these were going for that much..it is a awesome knife and the blade is on the thin side:thumbup:i know how you like the thinner ones..now i need to get a real nice sheath for it.
