Is this a Busse knock off??? 3B2?

[hookahhabib]

OP - Congrats on your sweet score! The 3b2 is on my list...

I think it was a 3b2. That was modified to look similar to a straight handle badger attack. I will look for that thread.

...

Are you talking about this?
Post #178

Yes I think that's the one he's talking about...Here's the original thread: http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php/919107-3B2-refined -- A lot of the pics don't work anymore but there are a couple towards the bottom of the original post.

I LOVE the modifications on that 3B2! Maybe even more now, based on how comfy my SHBA feels in hand...

 

[Gravelface]

That's the one!

Congrats on scoring an awesome blade! Trevor posted a comparison pic of a 3B2 and a SHSJ long ago in this thread. That is what opened my eyes to the 3B2. TurnerIII also has comparison photo's of a 3B2 and ASH in that same thread.

Here are the few pics I saved of my modified 3B2.

Chops well.

It's called ethics and living with yourself, something you by being a Cop should understand and support ...I'll pray for your soul to be saved.

Not quite right. I think you have Morals and Ethics mixed up. Morals are what help you sleep at night and are usually based on some sort of religion or faith. Morals define personal character, while ethics stress a social system in which those morals are applied.



I think we could look at social ethics in this case. These focus on right and wrong and what is considered appropriate behavior as a whole, rather than individual behavior. The problem with social ethics is people perceive things differently (as we see in the responses here) so defining social ethics may be tricky.

If we look at Legal ethics for an example we might get a better grasp on things. Consider a criminal defense lawyer, his personal moral code might finds murder immoral and reprehensible, but ethics demand the accused be defended as vigorously as possible even if the lawyer knows the party is guilty. I am sure working as a LEO there has to be a distinction between ethics and morals too.



What about the seller’s ethics and morals. Is it ethical for her to have a Yard sale, sure. What about the moral aspect of selling her husband’s knife collection? Hmm we don’t know all the information behind that. The buyer did not go in and try and con the seller, he paid (more or less) what she was asking. With instant access to the internet there is no reason the woman couldn’t have done her own research and found out what the knives are worth. I did a Google search of “3B2 Knife” and came up with some great info.



Now let’s talk about “Hog Ethics”. No Regrets! “INFI Hog’s are a treacherous group and not to be trusted!””. Treachery at the trough is encouraged and deceit on a Ganzaaaa is also. I am sure I could talk about Hogs eating their own and many more situations that play into Ethics. So from an ethical standpoint I think her whole house should have been raided and the OP failed his Hog Ethics.



From a moral standpoint that is for each person to decide.







I would have gone back and gotten the other two knives for $60 and slept like a baby

Maybe you should go back and tell her that the other two are worth about $500 each and direct her to Blade Forums or Ebay, That's the stand up thing to do.
My guess is she can use the money and will appreciate the honesty.

Well, i definitely do not think that he should offer to pay more for the one he already bought, but i don't think that you're saying that.

Personally, i'd go back to her, say "These are actually worth maybe 300 to 500 bucks if you go to auction on eBay.

If you sell them to me for 200 each, you will have accomplished three awsome things:

1) made 400 dollars when you only expected about 100,
2) eliminated uncertainty, and the hassles of an auction
3) have the pleasure of seeing your husbands face when you tell him you sold me the first one of his charished collectable knives for 40 bucks, and so on

ok, that was mean, i admit it.

I wish this woman were real and lived nearby me.

 

[knife hunter]

I didn't say he ripped her off, I said she doesn't know what she has or what it's worth and that I would let her know.
AND...
"Every major issue, problem, scandal, and crime in the criminal justice field has ethics at its core."

Maybe you should pick up this book and continue your education, society can't afford to have ignorant people carrying guns when they don't have a clue about what their job is all about to begin with, you will find it under Criminal Justice, I think being a Cop falls into that category.
It will help you with your future decisions so you won't need to call me when in doubt. No thanks required, I'm glad I can help you advance yourself, You are welcome.

The distinction between morals an ethics is NOT religiously based. Morals are incident specific rules which are oriented toward whatever is considered to be a positive social or political outcome, Ethics are the overriding principles that come into play.

It's philosophy, not religion. I don't do religion, but i know a LOT about philosophy

The "Ethical" perspective at play in this imaginary scenario is one of "We agreed upon an exchange of values to mutual satisfaction". There is no obligation, ethically, to inform a person that they are selling something for less than it is worth. Sale price is the exclusive responsibility of the seller.


The Moral perspective is that you would prefer that someone tell you if you were in this position, therefore it is immoral for you to actively and intentionally fail to do so. It is a perspective of universal application.

He is not my fellow hog, he is less than nothing to me...

Let this be a shining example of how to respond in the face of adversity.

A shinning hog indeed...

Guess not...
