I found my perfect "do it all" blade.
The Fallkniven F1 have been in a similar role for years, but the CABS has a li'lle more blade lenght - what is just perfect -, and a way nicer balance and feel than the F1, and it's INFI...:thumbup:

Thanks to all who made this happen.
And thanks to Amy, who was "guarding" my blade while my paypal account went trough some "regular maintenance"-how they said...

Nice picture!!!

It looks like a sweet little knife...I need to get on the ball and order one....two...or three.
 
This is truly a knife to buy more than one of. It is just about perfect. I would prefer a square edge on the pommel but that is a very small gripe, one that I am reaching for just to find something wrong with it. I have been using it alot and the zero edge is great. Crazy sharp and ridiculously easy to maintain.
 
Great knife. I was so happy when it arrived with a zero convex edge!!!!!

Saved me some work!

Sharp, lovely grinds, and enough blade length and handle length to be really a useful tool!

So happy I grabbed one with no choil!!!!! So stinking handy!

The lack of a good spot for striking a ferro rod is a matter I have thought of. I think, on my edge at least, right in front of the talon hole, there is enough of an unsharpened bit with a flat spot for striking a ferro rod with no problem.

In the alternative, it is easy enough to mod the tail and make it flat, if you really want to go that route. I have thought about it on mine. But it feels so smooth and hot spot free in the hand, I don't think I can make my self do it.

I love mine.
 
I'm definitely getting at least one more before the bell.
 
Man thats a good look'in little Busse Cabs. I've got to get my hands on one soon.
