Welcome to the madness, t1mpani!!!!!, and
WELCOME HOME!!

Congrats on the new knife, a magnificent blade as only Jerry could make!!!

Your very fortunate to have such an understanding wife. She's definately a "KEEPER"!!

"Saying thanks for the knife itself isn't enough. I don't deserve the amount of thought and work that went into this. All I can do is cherish it, and let you know that it will be at my side whenever I have serious business to do."
Bro, trust me, being over there, and defending us, and our way of life, you deserve, not only the knife, but much, much, more. Thank you for your service to our great country!!!!!

"I've been a lurker here for a long time, but I've always been hesitant about posting--seeing as how I'd never owned (or held) a genuine Busse. While I don't have the wealth of knowledge of the rest of you, I somehow feel more a part of the club now. Best knives on the planet, and best people behind them.
Thanks again."
t1mpani, you must remember, now that you have your first Busse, which I know will not be your last, you've automatically aquired a new family!! In the Busse Family, there's a camaraderie you will find no where else!!

Don't worry about your lack of knowledge. It doesn't stand in my way!!

You've already written your first post, so it's all smooth sailing from now on!!
BTW Jerry, that knife looks as if it would be a perfect companion piece to my 10" Sub-Hilt Fighter. I can picture it riding piggy back in a nice desert sheath. When will it be available??
