Hey Guys:

Did a sight unseen trade with that 1whobuys guy last Saturday, he called my shop and said he needed a flourless chocolate cake and it was an emergency, I had one left but it was ordered for a baby shower so I said Sorry, no can do. Well he said that if he could have that cake, he would give me a Busse knife for it. I was a little skeptical but sure enough when I went to the shop the next day there was this little knife that looks like a Busse and the cake was gone. The thing is, I've never seen one of these, and if it is a Busse, why no talon holes, I mean this would make the perfect spear. Furthermore the blade has lines on it. Anyway I could always drill some. Not too bad a trade for a chocolate cake!:D Has anyone seen one of these?
 
You have yourself what appears to be an apprentice Mean Streets. I am not sure of the values on the Apprentice blades, but I figure that it was a good trade unless your cake is worth more than a couple hundred bucks.

Hey Chuck, give me a call if you need a steak dinner in a hurry and want to part with any INFI! :D
 
HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!!!! That's no apprentice, that's a PROTOTYPE!! What kind of cake do you make!?

Rob
 
A "Prototype !!!"
Holy Crap !!!!
That was a good trade.....:D ;)

Next time I'll bring the Mean Street Variant;)
 
A Proto? Well, that is a possibility too. In that case, I think you owe Chuck a few chocolate cakes. :D
 
Pro, I have both so I know this one. But what puzzles me is how do you bake a flourless cake? THAT stumped me!

Wetdog1911,
A flourless cake is extremely dense and rich. I'm not sure how to make one, but I know how to eat one!:) :D
 
The cake was great.

The Brownies are the BEST!

Wetdog...I guess I just set the new price on LMS Proto's...$22.00


Hahahaha.....Jack enjoy it and when you get tired of it, Break it in two.

(and Yes, I did trade it for a cake.)
 
Hey Chuck, I really appreciate that knife. And Danielle really likes her new book, she is going to make me a dessert out of it. Paella night soon, smaller group , better food. I'll keep you posted.

;)
 
Well if the proto has dropped that much that must mean that the regular production like is worth like....a cupcake.
If anyone is interested in a trade just let me know. (I used to be a pastry chef)
:D
 
Guess I opened up a whole new market for Busse's.

SHBM for a 6 pack of cupcakes anyone?:D ;) (must deliver)

We had a good time at the BD party, Thanks for having us.
See ya next time.:)

Jack, please do break it (if you can) when you get tired of it. Otherwise I'm about 8,000,000 calories in the hole.:eek:

Chuck... How about some bugs and strawberries in Key Largo? (Florida Lobster and Grouper) That ought to be worth a variant of some sort.:D :D

Sorry John, there aren't 10 in existance. I only know of 2. Mine and the really cheap one. :rolleyes: Chuch has more of the facts. If there are more they are really deep in someones safe as I've never heard a peep. Probably in Idaho.:D :D

Heck I don't even care if it's a proto or a variant. I'd just like a MS. The only thing I don't have that I want. I suppose one of the new Active Duty's will have to suffice. Too bad you can't get them in 3/16 or 1/4.
 
HEE HEE The LMS's are neat, but have you ever seen one in 5/16"? A regular little crowbar with an edge. They came in 2 flavors. A2 and infi. If you ever get to hold one you'll see why DN and I love our fat blades.

I seem to recall a 5/16ths model that ran off to FL many many moons ago. :D
