I missed out on the Chicago show specials. I work for a DOE facility and such activities are heavily frowned upon. Like, lose your job worst-case scenario.

To ameliorate the pain, I went down to the post office to pick up some packages. Nearly busted a gut getting these to the truck:

Top is a HOFSH (Thanks, Scott) with satin blade and black paper non-magnum handles. Bottom is an Off Duty (Thanks, Bill), with crinkle green blade and black (I think) linen slabs. There is a dimpling of the gravity field on my workbench.

This shows the HOFSH in comparison with my Uncle MoFo. For two knifes that are essentially the same size, there are almost no similarities between the two.

Obligatory spine shots. The OD doesn't look all that much fatter than the HOFSH, does it?

Now if Dwayne will just finish recovering from his move, I can work on some sheath ideas I have....

Got the Busse factory love here this week also :D My HOGFSH's showed up!!! Black mag slabs/des tan blade/dc fasteners/asymmetrical edges/penetrator tips :eek: Friggin' awesome!!!@!!! Now, bring on the FB MISTRESS :eek: I imagine it will be the @!!T :D
 
:cool: i think the hofsh feels about right with the standard slabs, big handful, that's what i choose too. :thumbup:
 
You guys are starting to scare me. I've got a HOFSH with Mag handles on it's way to me and I'm beginning to think I'm not going to be able to handle it.

Probably not! Send it on down here and I will replace it with a nice skinny handled Cold Steel of some sort. That nice rubbery Kraton will be easier on your hands than that hard Micarta will. :rolleyes:

I have a very nice Cold Steel Satin Trailmaster that should solve his problem as well. Much softer on your hands isn't it :D I'll even add a Recon Scout to that so you get two knives for the price of one :D Imagine that two knives for the PRICE of ONE. who would ever pass that up?
 
Did I mention that they are both made out of super secret Carbon V super Carbon steel. :D
 
You guys would do that for me!!! I now understand what everyone means when they talk about all the love over at the Busse forum. How HOGS will go out of their way to make others happy.

:D :rolleyes: :D

It looks like a great way to relieve pain to me. ;) :D Nice looking knives! :cool: Thanks for the photos; the spine shots are interesting.

Sshhhhh, don't even mention the ingredients! I've heard that elf dust is used to get it so hard you can't sharpen it! And fairy dust too so it'll get a nice pretty rust color to it!

I like banging on Cold Steel. Don't know the man personally but what I've read about him from him and others just rubs me the wrong way. Besides that I just plain don't like his knives! So there! :barf:

Stay Strong & No Regrets!

SuperSecret Steel, fatty, excellent non slip kraton handles, what more could you ask for.

I think posting pictures of this knife (along with the pertinent measurements) will make every porker happy :D
