You know, I've been around life and the different boards for a long time. In my 42 years of life I've been a Marine, Army paratrooper and currently a PSG with the infantry in the IN. Nat. Guard. During this time I've had a chance to interact with numerous ego's. Nowhere have I been more disgusted than with what's been going on here lately. No, I don't post alot. I do read the posts though. It seems that the people here that don't agree with someone elses post have a tendency to attack the other viewpoint.Either you are totally for Busse or you're considered the enemy.
It has been my experience in the past that Jerry himself has not told me the truth when it came to shipping my BM. Many shipping dates came and went before the package that I had waited for over 6 months for was left on my front porch without anyone having to sign for it. In spite of this, I have bought plenty of his knives but at gun shows where I walk away with the product.
In contrast, when I've dealt with either the Hoods or TOPS, I've never been lied to, given false info as to delivery dates, and basically I've had very pleasant experiences.
In closing I'd just like to say that while Busse has superior steel, TOPS has superior designs for ME. Also, while everyone has a right to be proud of their creations I believe Jerry has a problem believing that anyone else could create a tool that ANYBODY might like better. So long, as I won't be back and since nobody in these forums pays my bills, but I've helped pay theirs, it's their loss not mine.
