Got any tips for finding a Ratweiler?

[FloridaBlade]

Hello, first post!
I was thinking about adding a Ratweiler to my small collection of knives, really like the look of it and all. I noticed there have been some sold here on the exchange now and then, and so I thought I should go ahead and join the forum, so here I am.

Anyway, if you know of anyone who is looking to sell a factory stock Ratweiler let me know. And if you have any suggestions or tips for a Swamp Rat newbie that you think might help me get one of these beauties at a fair price please let me know. Also tips on any pitfalls to avoid would be appreciated as well.

I am assuming the best place to start is here:

One thing that seems to be important in these transactions is private messages; but mine doesn't seem to be working (?) so I guess all I have is my e-mail. Anyway, thanks for reading and hope you all have a great week.

Number one tip - PATIENCE.
Took me a while to get one, but with patience I managed to get a full set of the Ratweiler handles line.

There is a chance that the long ago promised Anniversary Ratweilers will hit the shop at some point in the future.

Got email enabled, but I'm still wondering how to enable private messaging...

To be able to use PMs you need to be a paying member of the forum, about $10 gets you started for a year.

Buyinging any non-production Busse Family blade requires you to stalk the marketplace here like you are after your hot ex-girlfriend...!!!
