Greetings from Alaska
Although I joined Blade Forums over a year ago I have been content to sit back, study and soak it in until know.
I have been an avid knife user as long as I can remember and have a large and varied collection, but had never really been around Busse knives until my son discovered them (and Scrappers and Rats).
I have been getting my Busse fix vicariously through my son's purchases, but he finally shamed me into dropping the hammer on my own hunk of INFI steel by rubbing his Bushwackers, Basic 11s and other Busse Beauties under my nose.
I ordered a Jungle Green and black Micarta Bushwacker direct from the Busse website and then called a couple days later and talked to Lexie to confirm the order (she is a sweetheart, although you all know that already).
Then my son called Amy O later in the day and piggybacked another Bushwacker for himself on the same order (on the old man's VISA card).
Ahh, the joys of children.
Now I just have to sit back and be patient for about 2 months (it hurts).
I have also talked to the good folks at Lost Mountain and will be ordering a Foot Long to go with my new score.
Thanks for listening and I look forward to being a member of this fine group of maniacs.
