First Busse Purchase

Of course, where are my manners.

Came with a nice sheath, but I think the kydex is striping the blade. Any other sheath recommendations? I like that this one has the extra pocket for a MSK. Thank you for the warm welcome. :D

That's the fun part of coated blades for me, seeing how far I can wear the coating before I just break down and strip it clean... they cut better without coating anyway. :D

Nice Maxpedition... I've got my Killa Zilla II strapped (or I should say techlocked) to the side of my Pygmy Falcon II for this weekend, via Buy Brown kydex.
 
The feedback around here is great! And a welcome from Busse himself! Should I just mail you my wallet? :D

A welcome from THE MAN himself is impressive. As to mailing him your wallet, just a high-limit credit card will do nicely and it seems as if some of us have virtually done that anyway. Just don't forget to tell AMY-0 how many and which options you want. Welcome to the enjoyable insanity that is Busse Combat.

Apparently, you have been lurking long enough to understand how this works. :D

That's good, we like a piglet who does his homework. :thumbup::p
 
Welcome from one of the ladies...and you are probably already a victim of the infidiction. One fine-looking ASH (LOVE the slabs) will not be your last!

Just use her. As has been said, the coating will eventually wear away anyhow. But the heat gun method does work. I fit my HOGASH to a spec-ops sheath that way. Go Slow! :thumbup:
 
Most sheaths will eventually mark the finish.

With a CG like that, I would not even worry about it.

I always just strip mine when they get worn.



A welcome from the BossHog him self is always great.

One of my first communications from him was telling me I should not buy the Infi I was thinking of. The purchase was between a Busse, and a heavy high quality motorcycle jacket in case I crashed. He told me to go for the jacket first, just for safety's sake!

Instead, I made the Hoggish decision and got both.

Nice first Busse mate. The CGASH1 was my first plunge into the depths (or heights) if INFI madness too and it's been bloody awesome ever since! Welcome!
 
Welcome aboard dude. My first Busse was a skinny Ash1 of the same variety. Black with tan/black G10. I eventually stripped it and i've been hand sanding it to an awesome ghetto satin finish.
 
Lots of great info team, thank you.

JimmyJones: Sounds like a plan! I guess coffee would be on me as CU handed it to us during this year's Rocky Mountain Showdown. :(

I'm already trying to figure out which CGFBM I need.
 
Congrats on your blade burddogg! I got started on Busse's from watching Noss put these things through hell on knifetests.com. The proof is in the videos. Everyone on this forum is really helpful too. It becomes an addiction...and your wallet suffers...but its SOO worth it.
 
Glad you like the knife my friend,it was a big desision to let her go.and I warned ya ,It wont be your Only Busse,, I give ya a month your be searching for your next Busse Blade.Enjoy my friend
 
Yeah for sure there are a bunch of decent guys and gals who will be able to help you when the INFI addiction sinks it's tusks in ya. I am afraid you are already infected. Welcome to the party.

Listen... if you're going to go BM, just go the distance and get the NMFBM of the LE or CG variety. Otherwise you're going to feel just plain inadequate when we all start talking "who's mistress is the baddest"

...I'm just here to help :D
