Finally got around to doing some more terrible photography. As some of you already know, I got the Bussekin Bug several months back, started by the arrival of a BATAC LE on trade. The BATAC had to find another home (too valuable for me to use!), but I started seriously considering investing in some keeper INFI and SR-101. The INFI was found here on the Bussekin Exchange in the form of a War Dog.
This is now the go-to deer/HOG processing blade for my use, cannot wait til this season to test it out.
In addition to an animal processing blade, I found myself in need of a good chopper to replace my old machete. After a fair amount of research, I settled on the Scrapyard 1311... One of the best investments I have ever made. I recieved it brand-new, but it didn't stay that way for long.
I have cut through several wild persimmon softwood trees, about 8 inches thick, in addition to two 7-9 inch thick "shin oaks" as they are called in South Texas. Very hard trees to chop, but the 1311 took them all down without much fuss. Handshock is minimal, and the last picture shows the edge after my last chopping section with no improvements. Great knife!
