Oh ok. I'm loving the look and no doubt they'd make a decent fighter, but what about chopping/slicing/etc?
Thanks

EMT, the best way is to buy em all and try em out. Until you handle it for yourself in person, I think the hogs here all have great recommendation but you gotta see it and feel it to find "the one". I have been looking for "the one" ever since I joined BF, and after acquiring a bunch, I am still looking... In the meantime I'm very happy with the ones you have mentioned, but there is never a one size fits all model out there. It all depends on the user, the use, and situation from my experience. So you gotta have as many as you can, and sort out the ones you feel like you can move on from. Problem is, finding a reason to let them go, it's like they gotta be pulled from my cold dead hands, but you guys know what I mean!

OMG, OMG, OMG.
I.
Did.
It.
My first Busse, and my first INFI. My heart is pounding.
I am not sure if it from the excitement, or the worry of what my wife is going to do when she finds out!
LOL.
I went with the Jungle Green with Green/Black G10.
I can't wait to get my hands on this!!! WOOHOO!!!

Right now my go to blade is a CS Gurkha Kukri and I pocket a Rajah II (another Kukri) for EDC. I can do pretty much anything with the Gurkha and it'll do fine...the thing does better than an axe!! That's what I like in my knives. I know my Rajah won't baton well, in fact it sucks...but that's ok, I accepted it as a trade-off.
I have no problem shelling out money for good products, but again, I like to know their capabilities before I pull the trigger.
Thanks

Major congratulations are in order. Be sure to beat it like it owes you money
It is probably going to take some serious drinking to bring myself to do that.
I know it did with my Rats when I graduated to them, but I have no problem beating on them now. I'm sure I'll eventually warm up to beating on her, it will just take some time. (wait a minute, that didn't quite come out right )

No Pokey, thank YOU guys at Busse! The price for this one was certainly right!!! :thumbup: I can't wait to get my first INFI! Even better being a TG, as I have really been looking at those HARD! Although, I have to admit, the 8-12 weeks is a GOOD thing for me.

How does that work. I can order now and pay later correct? And if I use Paypal, you just collect the info but dont process the payment until it is ready to ship? Will you send out a email warning me when it is almost ready so I can make sure paypal is funded and ready?

Yeah but do you know what you've gotten yourself into? You're bank account will never be the same.
Congrats on the first one though.

Dave, at this point, I kind of subconsciously know you as the Team Gemini User Guy. I can't wait to hear what you think of the LB compared to the CG. I've been hesitant because of the hollow grind.

I skimmed through the pages and didn't see this mentioned... has anyone ground off the top hole on the original TG offering? I am seriously considering getting one of these and I am thinking that is something I would do to it.

Yes, there was a post with pictures quite some time ago. Do a forum search and it should come up.
Here it is:

Jesus I wish I could go back approximately three months in time and prevent myself from making any knife purchases until this one. I hope this one is up for sale for a while because this might be my favorite fixed blade ever.
