Weird! Coupchoux got a GW from me a while back. Who wouldn't be happy with a GW? He was fine to deal with on that transaction.

Busse knives are they worth it?
" In my opinion, any object worths it if it is useful to you more than the amount of money you have spent on it.
etc...
Yes, he does. You might find this one amusing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ehdQxFXKwaI . I certainly did.
Out5yder has recently been pretty active in the "other" knife forum, and also in Noss' forum. Everything he does seems to emphasize hard use to downright abuse (like actually chopping rocks on purpose with the ASH), and he complains about ridiculous things like an acute edge (on a Fällkniven A2) chipping on contact with rocks after a hard chop. And then he says that the best knife isn't the one which is more resistant to damage when abused. Sure, that phrase has a good point, but I don't see where he's getting at. If he thinks durability under abusive use isn't an important factor in knife performance, then I have to wonder why his tests seem to emphasize abusive tasks like chopping into rock and throwing.![]()
I think this video speaks volumes. Thanks.
