How many of you...

4 in one month? ...Who would do such a thing?? :o:D ...I'm just gonna quietly back out of this room now...pretend I wasn't even here! ;)

But before I ghost, congrats on your scores!!! :):thumbup:
Curious to know how you like that Weeks custom DSF...since I'd seen it listed I spent quite a bit of time thinking about jumping on it, myself. It's great lookin'! :)

Jaxx, don't be shy now ... why don't you tell all the newbie little piglets just how it was that '27' came to be your special number.
 
Thanks Curtis, and Jaxx. That Week's DSF was the closest I have come to a Bussekin impulse purchase. I was the first viewer and figured I had to move fast. Its better looking in person, as are most blades that I purchase. I collect mainly ASH1's, but with the two DSF's (to add to my one TMDSF), have begun collecting those also...;-)
 
Careful now. You know what will happen to those four...

And then you wake up one day BURIED in BUSSE !
 
I hate to be an over achiever , I bought 24 last month, and I'm sure other have done more then that
 
I am currently on pace for over 24 this month. 1st through the 3rd of November: ASH1 and SHSH2 purchased. If someone does not outbid me on Eb... (please relieve my suffering Visa card, the SHSH2 was an unexpected "too good a deal to pass") - tomorrow will be #3.

Its a madhouse...;-)
 
Well, my first leap was 14 blades in 21 days. my record thus far is 23 blades (keepers, not catch and release) in a month. Its an addiction that my bank cringes about every time the name Busse is involved.
 
Wow. I'm hearing some deep - and perhaps troubling - levels of interest. And I'm there also...;-)

LMAO, ok... I scored 27 Skeleton Game Wardens (and 1 satin SMOG Warden) from the Company Store over the course of one weekend. In my defense, I had read posts in thread after thread about how hard it was to score knives from the Store, so I prepped for the next run, which were the Skelly's. It was like shooting fish in a barrel, LOL, so I figured that there must have been a ton of them available. Not so... Most of the forum howled for blood...then my blood when I fessed that it was me...while the smart HOGs here PM'd me asking if I decide to let any go, to hit them up, which I did immediately with a bunch once I realized that I scored probably over 25% or more of them. Oops. :o;)

The Bossman thought it was funny as hell, inducted me into HOGdom as "Jaxx27 BBQ Sauce". :D From the BATAC run forward, I have managed to score every single #27 LE from all of the Busse model runs. Many hours on many long nights smackin' the F5 button to get in early enough to land them, LOL. I think it's safe to say that I have the largest collection of Busse Limited Edition knives bearing the same serial number. :) And...although many haven't been used yet, they are all designated users that I plan to keep always.

To those that remember...I'm still keeping my promise. I have never listed a Skelly on eBay.

Thanks Jaxx. Another piece of the puzzle drifts into place. I also got outbid on that CG ASH1 on Eb, so only two in November so far. But December's a long ways away...;-)
 
Oh, no worries there. More will be slicing through my doorway soon. And now my best friend has been touched by this "interest." He is now starting to comb the exchanges looking for his first Bussekin. I tried to warn him...;-)
 
Four in a calendar month or four in 30 days? Do Busse Kin count? If the answer to both is yes, then I have purchased 6 - 5 Busses and 1 Swamp Rat. I probably would have purchased more if I could have found what I wanted. Help me before I sink under the weight of all this steel.
 
Calendar month. And 'kins count. If you need to relieve yourself of any of that weight, please send them here. I will even pay postage...;-)

I've purchased more than four in one day.
On several occasions.


This was one:



And there was this pale imitation of Jaxx:




And so may others.

I got one of those Skellies (at cost, if I recall correctly) after missing out at the Company Store. I wonder if I could send it in to the shop and have it engraved "1 of 27"?
